For her parenting and child development class, Caitlyn had to bring home an electronic baby. This baby required constant care. She had to wear a bracelet and whenever the baby would cry, she would have to swipe the bracelet over the baby so it could recognize that she was responding to the babies needs. She never knew if the baby was hungry, needed a diaper change, needed burping, or was just fussy. This baby cried, cooed, made noised when it ate, and even burped. He came with his own car seat and diaper bag too. Her first night was so funny because every time she would try to do something the baby would cry. Her baby, and Olivia were on the same schedule. One would cry, and the other would join in. One would eat, and the other had to eat too. She got so frustrated with him. Caitlyn had to wake up in the middle of the night and take care of the baby, and had to take it with her if she went somewhere. She even had to take him to church which she ended up spending all her time out in the foyer. I think it really made her appreciate all the hard work it takes to take care of a baby.
