And I hope parents with teenagers watch this show with their teens, especially if they are sexually active. They should discuss safe sex and contraception. Because if they don't get involved in their kids life they will end up like the parents of those teens in Mass.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-42689205239299692312008-06-21T16:35:00.000-04:002008-06-21T16:35:00.000-04:00Olivia--That wouldn't make for very good televisio...Olivia--<BR/><BR/>That wouldn't make for very good television, would it? That's what it is all about, creating drama.

Like the babies aren't eating for a day because of neglect?<BR/>I'm amazed that parents would let that happen- or even that the layman would let that happen.<BR/>If that happened in a regular situation and people knew about it, CPS would be all over the parents' cases!

I had a hard time leaving him with my DH until he was over a year old. <BR/><BR/>I can imagine my 10 year old and maybe even my 7 year old doing it though, especially if they were togeter. They would probably get a kick out of it. But they are very laid back and social, so it wouldn't freak them out. <BR/><BR/>I agree about other peoples kids... when I am asked to help with kids at church, I say, "I don't really like kids. I love my own, but others, not so much." <BR/><BR/>I actually love all babies, but once they start walking and talking I have a limited number that I like. Same with my boys friends (age 7 and 10), some are great and others I can only handle for an hour or two.Enjoy Birthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13227246774801636777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-4105490666597866292008-03-19T13:03:00.000-04:002008-03-19T13:03:00.000-04:00On the NBC site there's a section written by the n...On the NBC site there's a section written by the nanny who was involved with the show. She tells us we can check back soon for pointers on childcare! In the comments, one mom says she wants to sign her 3 boys up for the next season. So I guess not everyone is seeing what we're seeing, and I'm just not sure what that means.jakesaskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12118815704398853622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-69290771487475664042008-03-19T11:42:00.000-04:002008-03-19T11:42:00.000-04:00This was just posted on my AP web group too...who ...This was just posted on my AP web group too...who lets their poor innocent babies be part of this experiment??!! Obviously they're not breast-fed, attached babies. I think this is pretty much sick - and sends the message that our children can just be pawned off for the sake of entertainment/social experimentation. *shaking head with sour look on face*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-87803551536167885322008-03-19T11:39:00.000-04:002008-03-19T11:39:00.000-04:00This show sounds like it will inflict a lot of unh...This show sounds like it will inflict a lot of unhappiness on the babies. I think the dolls that have cry and pee and have sensors to monitor how the doll is taken care of are better. There's still no emotional attachment, but at least an innocent baby isn't being separated from the parents.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-20991934769287877872008-03-19T00:00:00.000-04:002008-03-19T00:00:00.000-04:00That's a good point, Rixa.

Not only are these little kids being separated from their parents for extended periods for the sake of experimentertainment, the experiment really won't work because these aren't the teenagers' own kids. <BR/><BR/>I agree -- I'm not big on other people's children. I dislike babysitting because I don't really know how to relate to other people's kids. But I get along with my own baby quite well. There have been times I haven't really known what to do, but it's still WAY easier than with other people's children.<BR/><BR/>Apparently the teenagers in one episode fail to feed one of the children for an entire day. I don't know too many parents who would actually do such a thing, no matter how young they might be!jakesaskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12118815704398853622noreply@blogger.com
