Baby, baby!

Filed under: Uncategorized — donnad69 @ 1:51 am

I’m sitting here letting my son run a comb through my hair and watching this hilarious show, “The Baby Borrowers.” They’ve let 5 teenage couples try to care for babies for three days and nights. The first day and they’re already freaking out. The show’s tagline is, “It’s not reality; it’s birth control.”

As badly as I wanted to have a baby, there is nothing more terrifying than the first hours at home with a newborn. And I was a grown woman with years of caring for infants. I had no perfectly clean home, no supplies delivered to my house and no one around to monitor me and tell me what I was doing wrong.

And I most definitely couldn’t give him back after three days.

I hope every parent with a teenager is watching this with their teens.
