Dear Lacnuts!!

Talking about being a "nut" I spend all day today catching up on e-mail over
1000!  So since I woke up with a very painful plugged duct, I decided to sit
with warm compresses, massage, nursed all three and sat with my computer
reading all of your mail since March!!  Is this dedication?  I was very
tempted to simply delete many times, but I just couldn't do it!!  Maybe this
time I can keep up with all the reading!!

I wondered if anybody has heard or has any comments about The Baby Think It
Over Program.  This program is geared toward teenagers and it is meant to
teach them about parenting and the consequences of having a baby.  It is a
"baby" and it says that "at the heart of Baby is an internal computer that
cried at random intervals simulating the sleeping, waking, and feeding
patterns of a newborn.  Baby requires that the assigned teen insert and hold
a care key in place for up to 30 minutes.  The care key is attached to a
tamper resistant, non-transferable wristband worn on the teen's wrist.  Only
the assigned student can quiet Baby."  So is this a good idea? or are we
teaching teens that a regular pattern for a baby is to cry when hungry?

Does anybody know anything about this program?

Smiles,
Yvonne
