Recent widower George Rogers, needing loving care for his three young children, orders a cybernetic "grandmother". While two of his children accept her, one of his daughters fiercely rejects her, with near tragic consequences.
George is a widower with three children and he is being criticized for trying to raise his children on his own. His son Tom shows him an ad from a company with the motto 'I Sing the Body Electric' that advertises an electronic data processing system to meet anyone's needs - essentially, a robot. They set off and everyone seems to like the idea of having a grandmotherly robot housekeeper except for Anne, who has yet to come to grips with her mother's death. Her rejection of the new member of their family will have serious repercussions but also lead to closure.—garykmcd
