I was covering a Home Economics class this morning, and one of the students returned the baby simulator that he had taken home the night before (it’s an assignment to show that they know how to take care of a baby — the baby has equipment in it that reports back to the teacher how well it was taken care of). He complained about how much it fussed, but said that “It was easy to make him be quiet though. You just had to shake him a little harder.”
Kinda scary.
PS- He WAS joking. It had actually only cried for 19 minutes for him, and slept most of the way through the night.
