Is it safe to let a robot take care of my baby?

I’m moving to Japan in two weeks with my baby, and all the babysitters there speak Japanese and I don’t. But I read an article about robot nannies in Japan! Is it a good idea to leave my baby with one?

   Probably not. Babies thrive on human interaction, not android affection.

   NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO only a loving human being can look after a baby/child a robot can’t love or show a baby/child the love and affection he or she deserves

   you’d probably be better off tying your baby to a tree or locking him/her in a closet.

    I would never allow a robot to take the place of a human for child care! and anyways the articles i have just read by doing a internet search has stated that these robots are not capable of babysitting children while the adults are away!
