Baby Doll Project

The boy finally received his doll for family living class. These are the ones that cry, and you feed them, and change their diaper, and burp them. You get points taken off for head mismanagement or excessive crying, etc. He did very well with his baby girl. Only complained one time when it wouldn't stop crying.

So different from when I was in 8th grade. We used eggs, lol! A couple girls from church had these a year or so ago. One girl hated it and said she would never have kids after that. I think her baby cried a lot during the night. And her mom would "babysit" during her ballgames.

I bet you were so proud of him. I've never seen a guy take one of these home. What a great experience for him!!

They all had to do it. It was the baby doll or write a three page paper.

How long did he have it?

I think I would have chosen the doll over a 3 page paper too.

One night. It was really not long enough. I guess there aren't enough dolls to do it longer though.

That is short. I know the girl at church had hers for a week. At least I think it was a whole week.
Probably right on not being enough dolls.
