Today, the "Child Care and Development" class at my high school assigned all 50 students to carry a fake baby around school all day for a week. I can't even read a page of my notes without hearing a robotic crying noise. Today is the first day. FML

moral of the story: you only have this baby for a week and it's already driving you nuts. a real one you're stuck with for at least 18 years. DONT HAVE A BABY FOR A VERY VERY LONG TIME. (:

It doesn't exist in my own country. Instead we have sex education classes ,starting from Middle School, and free access to contraceptive methods in High School. Are the students missing on anything ? On the plus side, not too many teen pregnancies or school droppers..

I did that once. The first couple days were fine and then I wanted to throw the baby out the window.

I feel for you op. I had a robotic baby for 3 days. Didn't get much sleep with that baby crying every 4 hours.

I didn't have that class back when I was in High School, I missed out. I would've loved experiencing that. Impress your teacher with how well you dealt with that robotic baby, be mature about it, and use protection lol

All the students - it means ALL the students - even boys (that would be just right, boys should know about babies a lot more than "how to make them") or your class is all-girl class?

I did this in high school for my child development class. I'm pretty sure the whole point of this project is to show teenagers how difficult it is to care for an infant. Not only that, but you guys could do something a real parent would do and have someone babysit your child while you're in class.
