Electronic Baby From FACS For My Daughter

Its that time of year. My 8th grade daughter got to bring home one of those electronic babies for a grade. The baby was placed on "hard". And it is hilarious. The baby was turned on at 6 pm and immediately started crying. When my daughter took a shower the baby started crying.
Its a 1/2 hour past her bed time and she is pacing the floor with a fussy baby. She has been doing that for the last 1/2 hour.

I am laughing my butt off. This is outstanding. She is hating this project. Its way too much for her.
I remember pacing for hours because she had colic. So this fussy baby is awesome.
Im hoping it helps her stay on the narrow path. Which we have stressed.

Great project.

They have electric ones now? That's awesome.

I had a sack of flour. And I remember several friends having to defend their sacks of flour from assassination attempts.

I love it! I hope this gives your daughter a new appreciation for what you did for her.

I was at my in laws house this weekend while they were also watching their 3 year old twin granddaughters (my nieces). Hearing them scream bloody murder from 7p to 9p, again at midnight, and then from 5a to 6a was a fantastic reminder for my wife to keep popping that pill.

I've heard enough baby cries to last a lifetime. My last one had colic and didn't sleep the night for two-and-a-half years. If someone brings an artificial baby that starts crying into this house, I'm cutting off the head, ripping the wiring out, mounting the head on a pike and sending it back to school with this note:

A friend of mine accidentally drove off when the bag of flour was on the hood of his car...... That was quite the scene...

She got a 92% for her grade. She missed a burp this morning at 6:13 am and then hit the babies head a little later.
When the baby started fussing this morning her comment was "I hate this. I hate this. I hate this."

Too much fun.

Not nearly as bad when they're sleeping at home, even though they're not good sleepers overall. They seemed scared to be sleeping somewhere else.
