The school where I spent some time this spring in my internship had this
program and what bothered me ( of course it would since I am the BFing
fanatic!) is that the baby dolls have bottles that turn off the crying when
the baby is fed.The bottle has a long nipple that hits a trigger in the
doll's mouth/throat to turn off the crying. So the student will associate
feeding with a bottle with satisfaction and a peaceful baby.
And of course the teacher could not see what the problem is. She said the
student could pretend it was expressed breast milk in the bottle!
