"I'm sorry Stephen" Mrs Collins says, looking at your attempt at sewing. "I just can't pass you."
"But I get straight 'A's" you complain.
"Not in Home Economics" she says. "I don't think you've taken this class seriously."
"I..." you start to argue but she's right. You took this class because you thought it would be easy and would let you focus on your other subjects. Unfortunately you discovered that your talent in chemistry didn't translate to the kitchen. "Does this mean I have to repeat."
"Not necessarily." she says with a smile. "I might have a way for you to earn some extra credit."
"What?" you ask nervously.
"I also have a Child Care class." she starts. "And every year I take the girls on a camp. The girls who get the lowest marks volunteer to be babies so that the others can practice taking care of them full time."
You don't like where this is going. "What does this have to do with me?"
"I'm one volunteer short this year." She says. "If you come to the camp as one of the babies I'll give you enough extra credit to pass Home Economics."
