Everyone keeps telling me “you’ll understand when you’ve got one”
I’m thinking that’s a pretty irresponsible gamble
I have one. It’s a fucking lie.
I have (had- grew up) 3. They are cute - its a natural defense mechanism so we don’t throw them in the bin when they are up at 3am for the 22nd night in a row.

Sounds a bit like Stockholm Syndrome.
it kind of is, but its instinctual. you suddenly see your own childhood reflected from a new parental perspective, and you suddenly understand countless things you never did. you see yourself as part of a chain of parent/child stretching back a billion years… you see unspeakable purpose in protecting and nurturing and loving and raising this floppy lump of screaming snot into a future lovable thing. they look like you, with the most innocent eyes, and they can not quite hold up their own head.
Or… that’s the result of hormonal changes and the brain creating an excuse for the cognitive dissonance that results. It’s an evolutionary trait to further propagation of the species, nothing more. Your mind tricking you into liking something because you created it. The human mind creates fantasies all the damned time typo cope with situations.
In a different context. Your abuser isn’t that bad, they provide for you, give you a place to stay, and clearly care for you, just in their own way. Clearly they actually love you and you need to return those feelings to show your appreciation. The physical abuse is only a small punishment when you misbehave, you deserved it.
I’ll never understand since I don’t want kids.

I think it’s something genetical. Your own baby could be the most ugly of all, but you think it’s the cutest.
Genetical in the sense that you are programmed to behave like that, not in the sense it has to be yours to prompt said response. Paternity fraud is no joke.
Babies are not for everyone. Contrary to popular belief. Just because we can make them doesn’t mean we should all have one.
I’d 100% ruin a kid’s life and my own if I had to take care of one full time. They’re not for me I’ve always known that. I’m much better suited for being the cool aunt
Cool aunts are just as important
“Relax, I don’t want your baby, I already ate.” - Richard the Warlock
“All babies look vaguely like Winston Churchill”(to absolutely brutalize a Good Omens quote).
suddenly you get why Patton Oswalt looks familiar.
This is some ugly baby propaganda
This belongs to “I’m 13 and this is deep” on reddit
Imagine what the internet is like for someone that feels that way about cats and dogs
That’s me. I do find some images of puppies or kittens cute though. But never the grown up ones. And it’s not that bad. I just don’t go to those communities.
l used to think that way until my best friend got a baby. I love him more than anything and find it funny whatever he does.
