why one wouldnt want them in general? you just wrote all the stuff up there yourself. one should be a masochist to WANT that for more than a day. of course, other people dont see the big deal about CONSTANTLY watching a baby for about 5 years CEASELESSLY, but I think that is the highest form of torture.

as for myself - I would want one only if I could skip the first 5 years of this. because I dont think there is much virtue in watching the kid not to kill itself. I think the real virtue of raising a child comes when the child starts to understand stuff and you can learn him stuff and he explores the world and that kind of shit. that could be quite interesting and even rewarding.
