When someone shares a baby picture, do you make fun of how ugly they actually are?

I feel like, even five or six votes in, people feel this strong urge to be positive about a baby photo, willing to lie about its attractiveness just to be nice. I mean, Iโ€™m sure most people who arenโ€™t assholes are going to fake it, for sure. โ€œOh my goodness, what a cute baby!!!!!!!!!!!!โ€ ๐Ÿ˜น I do. Not over the top, justโ€ฆyeah. Like โ€œwhat am I -supposed- to say? What does convention require?โ€ Thatโ€™s what I say and do. And I think parents think their babies are cute regardless of the evidence.

Also, the voting seems to imply that some people strongly believe that โ€œall babies are beautifulโ€ฆโ€ (even when they are objectively not).

@amarand ๐Ÿคฃ right to their faces

honesty the best they tell me lmao

@amarand I might sometimes look at the parents and wonder how they made such a beautiful child, though ๐Ÿ˜œ

@stueytheround

Like, Iโ€™m always thinking โ€œare you -sure- this is -your- child? Both of you? Really?โ€ ๐Ÿ˜น

And donโ€™t forget: 50% of babies are below average. Thatโ€™s just math! ๐Ÿ˜น
