I guess in a sense that is very true. Many times I, like any typical female, have had a soft spot for the cuteness of a little one, however, I know that behind those big eyes is a horrific monster which soils itself every couple of minutes and cries 'til dawn when you're trying to sleep, and it only gets worse until they're about ready to leave home? :woohoo:

Envy, I think I can prove your friend wrong... I don't ever remember thinking babies/toddlers were the least little bit cute. All I ever saw was the howling monster that would take over your life completely.
Ahh, interesting view! I have mixed feelings. I find babies cute when they're quiet/sleeping. When they start teething, howling or when they dribble food down their faces and smear sticky stuff all over your stuff - that's when they're definately unwanted.
My parents were lucky in the sense that both I and my brother were mysteriously quiet kids. Never had a temper tantrum etc..

I do have the odd occassional person stare at me ( because of my pink hair or various colour of the month black at the mo) but i generally get stared at because i was born with a cleft lip and have some facial scarring.
Kids can be really loving and nice but i feel that those kids that a rude or stare its because of he way the parents have brought them up.

Hmm..Yes. I think it's a combination of friend choice, genes and upbringing.
My brother and I were brought up differently - I was hit as a child for punishment before it became illegal in this country, which I feel contributed to me being such a quiet kid who went through a 'rebellious' phase versus my parents once I hit my teens. My brother, however, was born after hitting was made illegal, and yet he was still a quiet baby/child. He just never had the motive to become rebellious as I did, but you never know. He's not hit his teens just yet.
:woohoo: It's very creepy how alike my mother I have become..We were discussing it just the other day whilst having lunch. My mother's had OCD with protecting books and keeping all paperwork clean and perfect i.e. no dog-eared corners. As a result, I, also, have to wrap all of my books in protective covers and keep everything in perfect condition. That's just the start of the list but basically, we're both very germ-conscious as well.
I hate how we look identical too. She looks so young that everyone assumes we're sisters..*Scowls* It's awful at parents' evenings and open days. The university tutors don't know which of us they're addressing when talking to us. My mother loves it, because she's nearly 50 odd and can still look my age, but I loathe it because it just rubs in my face how similar we look.
Darn genes!
