I found I was always more ‘they are being quiet–too quiet’ with my two girls. With their little brother there was (and still is) no such thing as quiet
I’m glad it’s not just me! Today my son slept past 7 for the first time in his 16 month existence, and even though I could see he was moving, I had to go check he was okay!
I had the same kind of reaction when we did that stupid crying doll project in high school. Guess the teacher had set mine to cry at the longest intervals and I stayed up most of the night worrying that the battery had died and I would fail the assignment.
In some american high schools theres a class you can take (pretty much all schools have a different name for it) thats suppose to teach teens about safe sex and prevent teen pregnancy. At some point during the class for like between 1-2 weeks you are given a baby doll that acts like a real baby. When it cries youll either have to feed it, change its diaper, burp it, or just rock it back to sleep. And you have to take it everywhere you go even in class.
What’s even weirder is that some places do an “egg baby” instead. The kids take an actual raw egg, draw a little face on it, and are expected to carry it around with them in a little paper carrier and not let it get broken. The idea is, supposedly, to teach kids that caring for an infant is a big responsibility, and sort of annoying.
What actually happened, though, was that everyone wanted an egg baby to play with, and a number of kids thought it was funny to kidnap eggs and threaten to break them. So it didn’t work very well.
