Students at Chippewa Secondary School in North Bay, Ontario, Canada, are learning the trials of parenthood with fake babies. If you didn't do this kind of thing at your school, it's basically an attempt to terrify teenagers into never having a child.

As you can imagine, it's not going very well. Teacher Andrea Lefebvre took to Facebook to share some of the hilarious texts she'd received from students about the babies, ranging from teenagers asking if they can stash their baby in their bag, or if they can turn it off.

Lefebvre explained: “Our students are in a grade 11 class called Raising Healthy Children. The students bring home one of the Real Care babies for the weekend to apply their learning for the caring for a newborn unit.”

No, you can't put your child in your bag.

Parents seemed to find the text exchanges pretty hilarious, with one writing: "I wish I would have known about that emergency shut off a long time ago!!! Can you still use this feature when they are teenagers???"

Another added: "At times, I wish I could put my child in my bag so I don't have to carry my clingy 3-year-old daughter."

One user shared a similar experience: "I had one of these babies in middle school and on the way home the bus was going more slowly after school. So the kids asked why we were going slow over the bumps and stuff. My mom, the bus driver, replied, 'I’ve got my grandson on the bus.' Never have I had over 40 people turn around and look so quickly."

Another user concluded: "Oh my god. I never experienced parenting classes when I was in school. I’m almost positive I would’ve been like at least two or three of these students if I had though. Full-time parent to a newborn is by far the most exhausting, frustrating & emotional (yet rewarding) experience I’ve been through so far."

This 33-pound baby just became TikTok famous—and caught the NFL’s eye

Sydney Frost had no idea her 33-pound baby boy, Carson, would become the internet’s newest sensation when she posted a playful TikTok earlier this month. The Texas mom jokingly “dialed” the NFL on Carson’s round tummy to the beat of Claudia’s “Phone Ya”, tagging teams like the Dallas Cowboys, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Detroit Lions. Her caption read: “Dialing the NFL now… Breaking news: No contract for these rolls yet. Coaches, what’s the holdup?”

Within days, her video exploded to over 17.3 million views, and even NFL teams joined in on the fun. The Detroit Lions commented, “You have our attention,” while the Philadelphia Eagles quipped, “We’ll take this one in 20 years thanks!” Fans of all kinds, from baby product brands to major sports teams, flooded the comments section, making lighthearted “recruitment” pitches for the chunky, lovable baby.

This chaotic Disney filter is making people question everything about themselves

A new filter is taking over Snapchat, Instagram, and TikTok, and it’s doing what all great filters do—stirring up feelings. The “Your Disney Twin” effect promises to reveal your cartoon counterpart by stitching your face together with a random Disney character.

The results are all over the place: some shockingly accurate, others laughably off. But no matter the match, one thing’s certain—people are absolutely losing it.

French family mocks woman in an elevator. She shut them down in their own language.

Speaking multiple languages has its advantages, but for one Vancouver woman, it became the ultimate weapon in a moment of unexpected linguistic revenge.

Reddit user u/Pixel__Detox, a 28-year-old woman living in a high-rise, shared how she overheard a French family openly judging her looks in an elevator—thinking she wouldn’t understand. Instead of reacting immediately, she waited for the perfect mic-drop moment.

When Michael Rowlands Jr. (@dressy.fits on TikTok) discovered someone had smashed his car window and stolen his wallet, he didn’t panic. He laughed. Why? Because the thief couldn’t get a single transaction approved.
