School Assignment- Garren cares for an infant

10/18/2012
Garren is in a Principles of Human Services class (Previously known as Home Economics to those that are older). There are a few guys in his class (but I don't think he minds being out numbered). One of their assignments was to take care of an infant. They cost about $800 and are smart babies. They have to take care of the infant and it has a memory of if you take care of it or not. So it starts at 3 pm after school and ends at 7 am the next morning. Bennett kicked him out of the bedroom for the night and he took over the game room. Bennett didn't want to be woken up by a crying baby.

So he brings this baby home in car seat. She come equipped with diapers, bottle, and clothes. The baby cries and he has to figure out what she needs and take care of her. There are sensors on everything and Garren has a sensor on his wrist so it know he is taking care of it. I thought he did good during the evening. The baby would cry and he would feed it, change it and even changed her clothes when it was time to get her ready for bed. I went to bed and had a great night sleep. Garren did not. Well he comes home that afternoon saying he failed the assignment. He didn't hear alot of the baby's cries during the night. He  complained about his rough night but he didn't have as rough of a night as he should have. (he can sleep through alarm clocks for hours...so why not a babies cry). Good thing for the family unit and that someday when he does have a family, he will have a wife.

Maybe he will do better with sewing...He is now going to make a quilt!!!
