.m_older imagines a world in which robot nannies are programmed to meet kids’ every need—from taking them to school to using extendable arms to help on the monkey bars.
“I haven’t told them yet,” Shristi said, looking out over the park, “but I think we’re going to have to replace Naneen.”“Maybe it’s for the best,” Blaise said. She was digging around for something in her enormous purse. “You can get a new one. A little more advanced.” She glanced up, anti-wrinkle spritzer in hand. “How long have you had Naneen anyway?”yoursShristi shook her head.
“Just because they’re not human doesn’t mean they don’t age,” Blaise said. “I mean, their components get older and, and, worn out. Right?” “Nanny upgrades are so hard on the kids though,” Karen said. “Gardette is sooooo much better than our old nanny, but it still took them a long time to get over the change.”“Looking at new models?” Blaise’s voice sounded almost triumphant. “Because Satella is amazing.”
“That’s great. You know, Naneen used to give the best hugs, and then I feel like there was this period when the new models weren’t really doing hugs as much.” “Why would you even want that?” Karen asked, disgusted. “I mean, a nanny is one thing, but when you’re talking about knowledge and prepping for standardized tests it just seems ridiculous.”
There was a silence. “Don’t you have Naneen set for autonomous nutrition evaluation?” Karen asked at last. But as she was waiting for Naneen to boot up, she found herself worrying not about whether the aging hardware was still functional, but about how she would talk to her. Shristi was going to have to explain that she wasn’t the child anymore, that now she was the mother, and in that moment—her nerves crackling with guilt over leaving the days-old baby alone, even though she could hear Esme’s sleeping breath from the nursery through her earpiece—she didn’t feel like the mother at all.
Shristi, whose husband had been trying to talk her into upgrading their driver for months, looked down at her toes. Their polish was chipping. She’d heard about new nanny models that included mommy-care functionality for when the kids didn’t need them: pedicures, manicures, massages, making tea, even a listening function.
“Yeah,” Shristi said. “I’ll let you know.” She waved to Blaise, who waved back, and then she started the five-block walk home, followed by Naneen with the kids.“It was great!” Esme said, bouncing on the platform. “Why do we have to leave early?”“I took a video,” Naneen said, before Shristi had to lie, and sent it to her watch immediately.
“Go with your sister, Sonal, Naneen will be right up.” Sonal grumbled and fretted, but finally Esme took her hand and up they went.
