Teach students how to properly brace a baby's head when lifting, carrying , or cradling a baby. This feature is only on the drug/enhanced version to simulate the lack of muscle development a baby born from an alcohol or drug-dependent mother has. It gives students an opportunity to learn the importance of proper handling of the head and neck without complicating the stimulation. Students can experiment with various positions without interrupting the other simulation features or causing needless crying while a student is trying to learn. Use this 
feature to lead a discussion of infant bone and muscle development, while alerting students to the hazards of improper techniques.
