Capgras Insurance Scheme

Capgras Insurance Scheme,
replacement of like for like,
it’s not so as you’d know
that this Johnny’s not your tyke.

He looks just the same,
in fact, he’s a double,
the only difference being
he’s demonstrably less trouble!

Prompt: Capgras Syndrome - the belief that someone, or something, close to you has been replaced by an exact duplicate.
