190 - You've temporarily turned into a child -- what do you do?
Well, first I have to say that I don't know how people do it, raising a child on board a battlestar. I mean, it's not as though the ship hadn't already been designed with a small space for a day care center, or as though Colonial Fleet protocol didn't cover something like parenthood and child care, but both of those resources were designed for people who could at least periodically, if not regularly, get themselves and their kids out onto a planet for a stretch.
The kids in there now, they may never walk planetside in their entire lives. Even though Galactica has artificial gravity and the most sophisticated recycling and reclamation system in the fleet, they might never know what it's like to stand on real ground or breathe fresh air.
I have to hand it to the parents on this ship. I bet I'd be worried sick.
( I'll stop avoiding the question now )
