[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 85485, member: 3388"] Everyone, Thanks for all of the advice. After I asked you for help, husband told me that he actually changed his mind. He doesn't think difficult child 2 can handle the crying "baby" given his anxiety level. I told husband that I would call the guidance counselor and see what she has to say about this assignment. Then, this morning, difficult child 2 gave husband a contract that has to be signed by him and also by us before he can bring the "baby" home. In the contract it gives the amount of money we will have to pay to replace the crying baby or any of its accessories if difficult child 2 breaks them. The "baby" costs over $400!!! [img]:smile:[/img] [img]:surprise:[/img] The carseat was $79. And, if the diaper is destroyed, it is $18!!! What are these diapers made of anyway!!! [img]:surprise:[/img] I finally was able to reach the guidance counselor this morning. I told her that husband and I don't think the assignment is appropriate for difficult child 2 on many levels. However, I told her that after difficult child 2 gave the contract to my husband this morning, taking the "baby" home is definitely not happening!!! I am positive that difficult child 2 would end up in a major "melt-down" after only being with the "baby" for a short while. And, I'm positive difficult child 2 would end up throwing it at the wall as hard as he could at some point. husband and I ARE NOT paying to replace the "baby" - END OF STORY. The guidance counselor said she understands the situation and will speak to difficult child 2's health teacher and have her give him a different assignment. I don't understand how the school can expect parents to replace such an expensive item. [img]:grrr:[/img] WFEN [/QUOTE]
