so...i never thought i would say this but now toddlers have their own reality show on nbc called baby borrowers...
here the concept: teens get to take care of your toddler for three days to see how it's like being a parent...nannies are there supervising the kids and you monitor the kids yourself 24/7...
now...would you do it?
would you let the world see your baby's cute face??

ok newborn/infant stage? no way.

Jaeclyn would love to do something like that...she likes new people especially younger girls (teens) As long as I knew a certified Nanny was with her at all times, and I could watch what was going on, I would def. let someone take her for a few days. I know in the long run a toddler would talk a teen out of wanting a baby so young.....BUT Jaecy may do the complete opposite Shes fun, and most young girls love her enough to tell me how much they want kids (Im a cheerleading coach around teen girls almsot everyday!

Im probably in the minority in this one, but I think at her age/maturity level we could all handle 3 days

I don't think so. I have not met a responsible teenager (who has not had previous experience with babies) that I would trust watching my baby for that length of time. Heck, I might even have a hard time leaving her with family for that long

An inexperienced teen with my toddler? HA! My boy would eat them alive!

My babysitter has just turned 19. We've been with her for two years now and she's always been fabulous with our son. I'd trust her for 3 days unsupervised - that's how good she is! (Of course, she's been working at a child care center since she was old enough to work. Honestly, I wish every parent had a Shelly to call on!)

i do have trouble leaving Gabby with family for that long (much to the dislike of MIL) but she would have trouble being without me for that long too... infact mum keep offering to Gabby for a few hours so DH and I can have a bit of a date and i wont do it
