As part of Milford High School's teen health curriculum, students can get a taste of parenting by taking home the Baby Think It Over doll. Teacher Pam Hennessy demonstrates the doll. www.metrowestdailynews.com
I did a trial with one of these in Health class, and I didn't think the crying was that bad (although I'm fairly family oriented), and I'm excited to bring the baby home in January. :)
i had to take care of one of these for a trial experiment for school since the school i went to was so low budget we didn't have these for health until three simulator dolls were donated to the school. I must say this doll did interrupt class time, take up free time and what not but the year i did this (Jr. Year) I had some depression and even mentioned to a school councelor some suicidal ideas (of course I never attempted anything i was just angry) Bottom line, this project healed my depression
i had to use one of these when i was in the "20th century sister hood" club at my middle school. ah, good times. sad thing was i was the only girl that got an A on that parenting project. i miss my little hunter. i loved the experience.
I loved taking care of my electronic baby when I was in high school, and was so glad these were what we got instead of eggs like prior generations. I cannot have anymore children due to having a tubal ligation, and lost my two. I wonder if.... If maybe something like this would mend the hurt or just deepen it.
These babies are very good for teens. Its alot of work. I did this in high school but years ago. I like it alot an like 6years ago I buyed one so I use it whenever I want an can program it on easy mode medium or hard mode. I do hard mode an medium all the time, Guess I'm odd cuz I like it so much. But i;m trying to have a real baby of my own now.
im going to be doing this when i get into 9th grad i cant wait!!!! becuase my sister did it and i was the one who was taking care of it most of the time and is was so fun
@jenniferbeauty33 Actually, they already have those. They just don't use them for these lame classes. I'm just voicing my opinion, no need to lash out on me.
i looked after one when i was at school i want one now but they say they dont sell to people who are not a school so if anyone knows of where i could get one could you please contact me :) thanks
I had one of those shits and it ruined my whole freakin weekend it woke me up like 3 times at night..at one point i just taped the bottle to its mouth and its so freakin heavy after a while and u gotta keep rocking it till it stops crying
I think im bringing home one of these baby's very soon i cant wait we have already had them out a few times in class just as a practice before we actually take them home
@talisstercustauri: Well, first off, I cannot afford to raise a child. I know my limitations, and I will not fall back on welfare just to have a baby, that is wrong. Secondly, an adopted child would not be -my- child. I might grow to love them, but I don't think I could ever bond with them the way one bonds with a child of their own blood. Maybe saying that makes me a bad person, I don't know, just being honest and trying to do what's best for all involved.
@ceeceefiya well...I was 16 then and I'm 21 now and I help raise my Nephews now so I think I've learned a lot with age. I had the baby years ago! LOL so far my Nephews are turning out great. haha.
I hated my Baby. after the baby left I kept waking up a night expecting to hear a baby cry. LOL I was so tried. I think my baby was a evil or something....or just broken idk. I woke up freakin' six times once!!
can somebody comment my profile or message mee and tell mee bout this doll ineva git dat b4 but ima b n da high soon soo idk..the doll luks interestin thoo
Some of them yes. There is one baby. Not sure if it this one though. But if hte baby wants a bottle you can put a pen in his mouth and it will shut up.

Awww, I wish my Health teacher in 10th grade has us do this...I really like babies, so I think I would have enjoyed something like this.

WOW, they've come a LONG way since i had to take one home! That was back in 1997 and it was much easier than that!!
I get to do this project this weekend for my Parenting class.
we never have such thing in my country. it seems like an amazing and fun experience !
This modle of the doll is so much better than the one i had
That scream was really scary
I had the real thing at 18, with no practice but he's 48 now and a fine young man
This looks so much fun! I'm taking child development next year, I hope I get a fake baby. :)
Great video!
I had one a few weeks go, and it was a very interesting experience hahaha!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! i am getting one in a week or 2 and it looks not too hard but the one i get might be fussy and it might be worse than i thought
IM SO EXCITED TO GET MINE!
Thanks so much In teen living. At m
y school we have to do this great vid
Getting mine next week
my little brother got this and he was like "god fuckin damn it! its crying again!!" lmao!
What a great idea
Oh man I have to take this course this semester and I have no idea what it's gonna be like...I hope I don't have to pretend I'm pregnant.
Im getting mine eaither on friday of this week or the week after that i cant wait
im taking one "baby think it over" to home bt its just for a weekend.....so i dont worry having it in class (the whole week)
My Cousion Had That Same Baby & He Gave It To me & He Slipped The Bracelet Off Using Soap... LMAO
As crazy as those babies made me, i did a very good job with mine, probably would never leave, i was scared it would cry if i made a mistake
lol i actualy looked forward to that in high school then with a big let down they told us the dolls costed to much and i so wanted to do it
I want one!!!
Can't wait till I get mine:D!!
@mactopolis umm all ik is that to repair the baby is like $ 600 or more!
it just depends on your schools curriculum. for me, it's the end of 8th grade, if you take family and consumer science.
No, they want you know think that taking care of a baby is a lot of hard work, which it is.
sorry accidentally rated this vid with one star.. its good actually, i want one of these dolls.. shame that they are so expensive though
I agree, but its a matter of opinion whether raising children is easy or not.
got mine right now, only time it's hard to take care of is when it's being fussy (doesn't know what it wants)
omg i am so excited i am almost getting my baby at school for a project i really want a baby so bad ..!!
@jenniferbeauty33 Actually, they already have those. They just don't use them for these lame classes. I'm just voicing my opinion, no need to lash out on me.
ive had mine for two days and i dont really feel like its that bad so far ill probably get tired of it after losing a few more nights of sleep.
wow that is the best thing ever
probably im gonna get mines tommarrow
i cant wait to take it home in like 3 years
i had one of these when i was at school
Is this Milford High School in Connecticut? My cousin goes there and I think she had to take care of one of these.
wow, this is just like a real baby xD just how i remember my little brother being like for the first 6 months xD
I loved my weekend with the "fake baby" It didn't scare me at all x) I just wanted a real one the second I turned in the fake one
You know if you really don't want it, i think you can leave it at a church or hospital.
I`m getting mine tomorrow. Im soo nervous!
Can you buy one from the store
i want one where can you buy one
I'm getting mine today! I'm kinda scared, cuz I don't have alot of experience with kids, fake or real. SO! I hope to do alright!
