I’m just coming in here to say that I’m now realizing how some of you are monsters for not liking animals and we’re not friends anymore I’m sad Great job on the unpopular opinion though, for the cause!!
Babies are overrated in terms of cuteness, but they can be cute. Idk honestly don’t have that much experience, no tbat many ppl who’ve has/had a baby that I really give a shit about lol
Babies are fucking ugly as shit but the fact that they exist and the potential and possibilities we can instill in them make them cute.
I had SO much hair as a baby that my mom asked the Dr if it was normal and they were like oh don't worry she'll naturally lose some of it over the next few weeks. But I didn't I also wasn't a cute baby tho imo lmao
The only things that kinda annoys me with kids are 1) when they fake cry and fake whine and 2) when parents think their kids are funny and they're being obnoxious af I went bowling with a friend and she thought it was so cute that her son kept trying to like push his bowling ball with his nose to knock down the pins but he was pushing it so slowly that it'd get stuck in the middle of the lane and an employee had to keep getting it back and I eventually snapped like omg sis stawp encouraging him it's not cute.
Correction of behavior is the major aspect of being a parent that is so overlooked. This should not be an unpopular opinion haha
I think there can be a fine line between what parents think is funny/cute and what is annoying behavior. Like I think it's natural ppl think their own kid is funnier and cuter than everyone else does, but when that self awareness doesn't exist to recognize when it crosses the line to obnoxious it's not pleasant lol Generally I think ppl can be too hard on parents tho
Exactly. That’s why being a parent isn’t just a personal responsibility but a societal responsibility. You have an objective duty to raise the best version of the person you want to raise. Fuck what you think is cute, be a parent not a friend
I'll take them until 2, you give them back at 7, i give them back at 12, you give them back at 18 I get the good years, you can suffer
I used to really wanna be a dad. I even had (have) names picked out. But as I’ve gotten older Im starting to feel more and more selfish in that regard and the thought of having kids any time soon sounds awful. Maybe when I’m 40 lol, I dunno. I don’t like the idea of not being able to do whatever I want whenever I want
Nah I'm with you. I feel like I haven't even gotten a chance to live my life yet, let alone give it over to someone (kid) else.
I love being an uncle. It’s so much fun and whenever they start being pieces of shit I can just be like NOPE and pass em off to my siblings. And I don’t really ever have to punish them so I remain cool
