Prompt: Can you imagine robots taking care of babies in a nursery? How would this affect their development and how would it compare to human interaction?

I could not imagine robots taking care of babies in a nursery. They would need to be super advanced to interpret what the babies are asking for (at least on a human level). Even so, I don't think it would be a great idea to have robots nurture young children. If robots did take care of babies, the babies might think that the robot is their real mother/father and have trouble realizing that it isn't when they grow older. There would not be the fundamental care-taking bond that ties parents and children together. Without this bond, what would separate parents from other family members? We would have to redefine what it truly means to be a parent in this case.
