Baby Borrowers - live review 3
After a commercial break, the teens had to decide which parent would stay at home and which one would work. Alicea said that she would like to go to work because she didn’t want to deal with the kid at all because of the mom and she “doesn’t take s#!* from anyone.” Alicea, do humanity a favor and never had kids.
The father of Dayton and Morgan’s kid paid them a visit and gave them some great advice on soothing and calming a baby. He admitted that it’s difficult but that they have to relax themselves in order to help a baby relax.
The last parental visit of the night was to Kelsey and Shaun who apparently forgot they had a child to take care of and had not changed, bathed or properly fed their baby prior to bed time. When Shaun suggested they just put the baby in the other room because she was crying, the onlooking mother looked ready to snap. You can’t blame her.
That’s it for this week, folks. I need to digest this episode before I decide whether I’ll tune in next week. While I think it’s great that these kids are getting a true taste of parenthood and learning what’s really involved, it irritates me to watch the choices and attitude of some of the contestants.

I think this is a great concept - but really scary to see these teens in all their ignorant, selfish glory.
I was a tad disturbed by the RN in the baby class giving us the low-down on who she thought would make a good mama..I think that conversation would have been a little more settling if she would have thrown a few “later”s in there.

I have watched the first 3 shows. A few comments-all the couples should have children in the same stage of growth-(ex. babies 4-8 mo toddlers all in potty stage age-Isaic was much older than the others) the preteen show was unfair-two couples had only 1 and they were well mannered. The group of 3 hellens should be on NANNY 911 I would of been ashamed if my children acted that way-the best of the preteen were the 2 little girls-they showed real life-Also the vegetarian mom had no right to tell the couple they children would be obese. I have raised 3 boys (Now in late 20’s) none really ate fruit or veggies BUT were very active living on a farm and being in sports all their lives-inactivity is what mainly causes obesity. But fruit and veggies are important. Also the show is a bit unfair because the teens themselves will be at different stages of their lives when their own children are these ages. I think the next 2 shows will be very unfair to the emotional growth of these young couples as most people are in their 30-40 range with teens and over 55 when they will be needing to care for their elderly parents.
But the concept of your show might open a few eyes.
