There is a short story, it is very charming-- about a young girl who loves her household robot so much that she forces her parents to reclaim him even in the tide of anti-robot earth sentiment. And he is happy to return to her. That story I felt was rendered very well, I have the name of the collection, if you like? [Her face gets soft for that. Of COURSE the little girl wanted to get Robbie back, and she likely went on and became a roboticist because why wouldn't you love your childhood robot?]
