Do you think its a good idea to make teens have the baby think it over and the pregnancy profile vest? I’ve done both of them and I think I benifited from both. Do you think it should be required in school, or just optional? The baby think it over cries every 3 or 4 hours. You have to rock it when its fussy, feed it, change its diaper etc. You also have to support its neck and not shake it. The pregnancy profile vest has a "head" that moves when you walk. It makes you gain 30 pounds (i think). It makes you have to frequently use the restroom. It also had two feet up by your stomach. It is very hot to wear. Do you think these are even teaching teens anything? Any other opinions?
the baby think it over was used in my high school…. though i didn’t take the course that required you to have one (child development)… my best friend did… so i got to help… it was just like a game for us…. i can honestly say that it didn’t keep our students from having sex… but promoted the use of protection…. about 10 or less people in my class got pregnant/had children before high school was over… and i’ll guess and say about 50-60 through out the school… by the time i graduated.. my best friend had her first child when she was 21 and recently gave birth to her second…. so i guess it had some effect on some people…. we didn’t use the pregnancy profile vest… but im sure in addition to the baby think it over …. it will prove effective.
I think it’s better than nothing, but it doesn’t teach you what it’s *really* like to take care of a baby. With a real baby, you don’t only think of them once every 3-4 hours when they cry. You are responsible for them constantly & you love them with all of your heart. You don’t just have to feed, rock & change them – you have to teach them & help them to grow & be healthy emotionally, too.
It’s a start. But, I’m afraid that teens who successfully deal with the electronic doll will think that they are all set to care for a real baby.
