as the class learns to warm bottles,
change diapers, and burp babies. The
course lasts from four to six weeks.
For classwork, a doll is used, but for

comes later on. Some of the students
mothers reported they no longer have
to coax and bribe-the children now
ask to mind the baby. The youngsters
are also taught responsibility and safety
