I hate babies.
I have to get this off my chest. All of my life, ever since I was young, I have hated babies with a passion. I NEVER played with baby dolls, I NEVER showed any interest at all in babies or motherhood. Why? Because they freak me out. They freaked me out back then, they freak me out today. The tought alone of having to take care of one or just interact with one, scares the heck out of me.
Why do I feel like this?
+++1. I think they look utterly repulsive.+++
I honestly think human babies are, untill they reach the age of HAIR, among the most vile-looking creatures in nature. The chubby factor doesn't work for me. Newborn babies make me want to vomit. I really believe anyone who calls a newborn baby 'precious', 'sweet' or 'beautiful' is in fact a hypocrite and in reality comforting its parents.
+++2. The way they cry for something makes my skin crawl.+++
The newborns look like squirmy little maggots with their bald heads, shut eyes and toothless mouths. They totally. Freak me out. The older ones are just plain annoying and aggravating. Whenever they cry, I feel like punching them in the face. Ever looked a needy baby in the face while he is wailing? You know what that expression means? "I WANT! WANT! WANT! GIVE ME MY BOTTLE. GIVE ME MY DIAPER. GIVE ME MY TOYS. NOOOOOOOW!!!"
+++3. They're very effective in showing you what they DON'T want, but they are never able to show you what they WANT.+++
They are spoiled even when they're just in the crib. They manipulate us because they are used to getting what they want, ALL the time. And people think it's strange I call them annoying? They cry, whine, fuss and moan CONSTANTLY even when NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THEM! Most older babies just cry for attention, to get what they want. They have no patience, no empathy or regard for anyone but themselves. Yes, they love you. Would't you love the single idiot willing enough to wipe the shiat off your butt and bring you milk?
+++4. They stay little too long.+++
They progress frustratingly slowly. They're incontinent for what? Three whole years? They spill their food all over the place and projectile vomit for about... Two entire years? You have GOT. To be kidding me. Kids don't grow up too fast when it comes to the gross stuff. They are plain nasty when it comes to bodily fluids.
+++5. They're dumb. There, I said it.+++
I see babies hanging from their buggies that look like they are retarded, in a coma or drugged. How anyone can interact with such a child, is beyond me. There ARE some older babies that actually act like a small human being, but most of them have an expression on their faces that show they are not really there. They should just stay asleep for the next two years if they can not do anything... Interesting.
Those are my reasons for hating them. I can tolerate older children, but babies? They make me run for the nearest exit. Sorry.

Check out these other IIN stories:
One thing you forgot about them, they're nearly always sticky. i always used to look after my little cousins, and any time you touched them your hand came away covered in gunk. Not nice.
however, instincts will probably kick in if you have your own and you'll love it to death : )
Good luck
Cause you were once a baby.
For those of you that know me, don't you think thats pretty fucking ironic?
just cant decide whether I like them boiled or fried.
im sorry but no normal person would think that about an innocent baby!!
Babies can be very beautiful. I'll give you an example of my son when he was born, but I don't want to see comments with anyone bad mouthing my kid. For starters when he was born and I first layed my eyes on him I started crying I had never seen anything like him before. I would always stare at my baby and I thought "Wow he actually came out of my body" I would take a bath with him when he was weeks old and we would just stare at each other. It was like he knew who I was and that I would never let anything bad happen to him.
Oh yes and FYI sometimes we parents get annoyed when people come up to us and say "what a cute baby" or "how old is she/he"?
You will feel differently when you get older, and when you have a baby or are a father to a baby. The whole process of childbirth I think is a miracle, and a blessing. Human life is precious no matter how old a PERSON is.
I think it is very foolish for you to judge a baby when they have no concept of what being impatient or selfish is. They have no control over their body fluids, because most people feed their kid the wrong milk (baby formula) and it makes them spit up, and also because they don't understand how to control it yet. Kids do not grow up too slow. You have no idea what you are talking about because you are not a parent, and I hope to God in heaven you never become one either. Best Wishes! and all that shit.
Having your own baby will be different to seeing some random baby, idk for sure cuz im not a father but I'd imagine it wuld be anyway, so he may hate random babies he sees bcuz of how they act but if he ever has a baby of his own he will see things from a different point of view. I cant say this for sure but that's wat id imagine anyway.
I have. I tell people to keep them away from me all the time. There are many more who feel like this, they are united in a small group of people who call themselves 'childfree'. You should Google first before you start lecturing us, assuming that you have the answer to everything just because you have spawned.
"Babies can be very beautiful. I'll give you an example of my son when he was born, but I don't want to see comments with anyone bad mouthing my kid.

It was like he knew who I was and that I would never let anything bad happen to him."
Epic. Wait- when are you going to explain why babies are beautiful? You spawned a kid. And...? So you had a great experience with spawning. 'Golly, if she says it's worth it, I should try it too!' IT'S BEAUTIFUL TO YOU, CUZ HEZ YOUR KID! How can you lecture someone who probably never procreated in the first place? o_O
Baybee = beautiful to breeders.
Baybee =/= beautiful to the childfree.
Learn that by hard.
"You will feel differently when you get older, and when you have a baby or are a father to a baby. The whole process of childbirth I think is a miracle, and a blessing. Human life is precious no matter how old a PERSON is."
How can YOU know how anyone will feel, really? Are you the ALL-KNOWING MOO FROM THE HEAVENS? The argument you are using here is, in fact, your opinion. So... People like the poster, people who don't like kids and childfree people out there, we will all understand when we'll get older?
How much older, may I ask? When we're 99? I am almost 27. My history is laughing in your face. I am waiting for the miracle change for quite some time now. Know any symtomps I'll have to look out for? Or should I just 'adapt' and get myself preggers like the rest of you? Perhaps I'll understand THEN, huh?
"I think it is very foolish for you to judge a baby when they have no concept of what being impatient or selfish is. They have no control over their body fluids, because most people feed their kid the wrong milk (baby formula) and it makes them spit up, and also because they don't understand how to control it yet."
True, but we can find them annoying all the same, can't we? Let's face it. Yeah, babies cry when they want something. And... IT'S FRIGGIN' ANNOYING having to listen to them!
"Kids do not grow up too slow. You have no idea what you are talking about because you are not a parent, and I hope to God in heaven you never become one either. Best Wishes! and all that sh*t."
Whatever. I think people like the poster take all the means neccessary to prevent from EVER making/ having a baby, dodn't you think? ;D
Yeah. We were all waiting for a lecture about the 'blessing of human life'. Seriously, do you ever watch the news? Like, ever...?
The point is really quite simple.
1. Some people don't like your precious little ingrates.
2. People like the poster, people who don't like children or are CHILDFREE, don't WANT to hear about the miracle of childbirth. I for one am SICK of breeder stories! Keep them to your breeding self and your breeder friends! Seriously. Who wants to hear another sobbing moo story about the birth of their kid?!
3. Oh it's natural alright. Apes leave their babies to die if they don't feel like mothering them all the time. In nature, babies are rejected by their moms all the time. Don't come to me to tell me all women should love babies, because that's too much Walt Disney for me.
I'll leave you with a George Carlin quote:
"Nobody cares about your children. I speak for everyone, they've been appointed by the rest of the group to inform you we don't care about your children, that's why they're YOUR children. So you can care about them and we don't have to bother."
I did say that all human life was precious not just babies but whatever you are entitled to your own opinion and so am I. If I want to talk about my son then I'll be damned if you are going to stop me, or make me feel like some worthless peice of crap low-life loser for choosing to be a mother. Perhaps the reason why you feel this way is because it creates a balance so the population will not become too high for the earth to handle. It's getting close to being too late for that, especially in America. Either way I don't believe I should be given the title "breeder" since I don't believe humans are animals because I believe humans have souls.
"Either way I don't believe I should be given the title "breeder" since I don't believe humans are animals because I believe humans have souls." That didn't even make sense. Just because he is saying your a breeder does not mean he is calling you an animal breeder just means you've procreated, you've had a child, and you have which means you are, technically, a breeder. And technically we are animals, we are mammals, that has been proven, my old priest was the one that told me that we are mammals, and guess what, mammals are animals.
Soul: the quality that arouses emotion and sentiment. Spiritual not physical.
that definition was from a dictionary. So the soul is what gives you emotions and all that stuff right and only humans have a soul...then why do monkeys show emotion? Mice can laugh and laughter is an emotional expression. And btw it's not just mice that laugh it's most animals, they have a different form of laughter though a mouse's does sound like a mentally high pitched giggle. Monkey's show the most emotion but scientists think that many more animals do have emotions but can not show them, they look after their young and protect them from anything, how do you know that is just an animals surviving instinct and not that some care for their young?
Plus to me if you hate babies and think that they don't offer anything for society and are ungrateful then it's almost like what people say about euthanasia when it comes to old people. This country could one day make abortion legal up to two years of age and frankly that scares the hell out of me.
You only like them when they're your own.
like, i dont hate them, but they're really annoying.
i don't plan on ever having my own kid.
i wouldn't be able to take care of him/her without going insane.
I never plan on having a baby or marriage, I'm fine with this and I'm glad for it.
Agreed with the...question asker entirely and do not think it odd to dislike babies.
What are you talking about? They continue to cry to let people know what they want even as a teenager and adult. Why? Because parents DON'T teach children how to do things for themselves.
Okay, they can't help what they look like. I think they're pretty cute most of the time myself, but the parent will most likely love them (unless they're one of those horrid people), and thus they will be beloved and beautiful in their eyes.
At first crying is the only thing they can do, so if they want something the instinctive thing to do is to cry, and make loads of noise to get the attention. I'm sure they'd rather ask for it. I know it's sometimes annoying.
P.S. I have African family, and a cousin from that side, and she never cries. She's lovely XD!
I think babies grow up too fast. Childhood is a thing to treasure, I think, though when I was younger I couldn't wait for it to be over. Now I miss the days when everything was so simple and carefree.
Dumb? They're only young. You can't expect babies to learn straight away.
Deal with it!
when i think about having kids when i'm older it scares me, i know i'm selfish to say i don't want to look after someone else for the rest of my life.
but hey, when i'm older i'll probably have all the maternal hormones and all that kick in and end up having my own.
Twain quote about sending all teenagers out to die on a raft. Granted, I can joke about this cuz I don't have kids yet. So when I was in Madrid there was this sign on the fence of a preschool that I passed every day that said (in Spanish): we are people too! If I hadn't been in a foreign country I might have committed my first ever act of vandalism and taken a pen to the sign to change it to personitas. OK, so this isn't entertaining to anyone but me, but oh well. It was such a trial on my self control to not do that... and I sort of wish I had.
I think babies are innocent and pure and not weird at all.
And secondly you sound completely arrogant to confidently assure that s/he will "feel different when they get older"
How presumptious, mother goose.
There are many single persons who live their whole lives childless.
And YOU ARE AN ANIMAL, despite whatever personal emotional philosophies you cling with persistence; humans are simply higher evolved animals (even so some animals have sharper senses than us, such as sight and smell) However, as animals we all show complex social and emotional behaviors.
I find it a good thing that people do not wish to have children, otherwise MILLIONS more would overpopulate the earth and thus scarcity of resources would lead to poverty and many other ripple effect issues.
IF I HURTED OTHERS FEELINGS IN THIS FORUM I AM EXTREMELY SORRY FOR THAT I SHOULD YOU ALL WHAT I FRANKLY FEEL ABOUT CHILDREN
But yeah i think we all secretly hate babies some of us are just afraid to tell people that.
Normal =]
As a young child I would not play with dolls and instinctively hated babies. I was told I would grow out of this but am now 27 years old and still feel as disgusted by them as ever.
I always feel like a bad friend because now friends of mine have had kids I quite honestly go out of my way to avoid them and avoid meeting up with them. This isn't because I don't want to spend time with them, I just don't want to spend time with their screaming "things" that ensure that no reasonable sensible adult conversation can be had. They also actually EXPECT you to fawn over it and i'm not the kind of person to lie to people so hence I avoid the situation. People who have kids or are real "kiddie" orientated just refuse to understand or except that people out there just don't like them!!!
I just can't helpt it - I wouldn't wish them harm but I just think babies are disgusting things that ruin your life and end it until they finally grow up and leave home. All the fun things you used to be able to do are gone.
I particularly hate it when we go out to a nice restuarant and it's ruined by some child wailing and screeching and running around. If your kid is going to be doing that please don't ruin every one elses night and stay at home with it!!! Funnily enough most of us aren't interested in listening to it screaming while we try to have a nice night out!
I don't think those of us who are irritated by babies should be looked down on. My family is a fertile bunch and it seems like my cousins are popping out a new addition to the litter every other month and since I was a child I've had my relatives pushing these babies in my face. I think if you want to have a child that's fine but it shouldn't affect my life. If you're baby is screaming and crying out in public you need to figure out what it needs and get it to stop or you need to go home. I work retail and have had to listen to screaming kids for as long as 30 minutes while the parents shopped like nothing was wrong. The sound of your child crying may not bother you but be considerate of the rest of the world.
I totally agree, this baby shit makes me sick.
The comment about them being dumb is crazy funny!
Read my story about "guys getting married"
babys are awesome and you kno it!
"Mark Twain didn't like teenagers you know he said that he thought they should all be tied up to a raft and sent out to sea and die. As he was a great a writer this doesn't make much sense since we need teenagers to turn into adults to be the future of mankind, just like we need babies to be the future of mankind. All you childfree people should watch the movie "children of men" and see what it could possibly be like without children in the world."
You just don't understand, do you?For the last time I will ask you KINDLY to stop thinking for child-free people or people that don't like children. Most child-free people I've met are well-educated, intelligent people using strong arguments in debates such as these to defend their carefully chosen lifestyle. We don't need to 'wisen up', no matter how much you want us to see your point of view. We will never see your point of view and frankly, we don't think like we're missing out. As you yourself just put- to each his own. You are entitled to your opinion, so please go change your son's diapers and watch that movie. If it's meaningful to you, it's important to you and I acknowledge that. It's just not important or meaningful to ME, nor most child-free people I know!
"I did say that all human life was precious not just babies but whatever you are entitled to your own opinion and so am I. If I want to talk about my son then I'll be damned if you are going to stop me, or make me feel like some worthless peice of crap low-life loser for choosing to be a mother.

Either way I don't believe I should be given the title "breeder" since I don't believe humans are animals because I believe humans have souls."
You are more in denial than I am, miss. Like tehfirefox already pointed out, we ARE animals no matter if we have souls or not. That is a well-known fact of science. We just like to tell ourselves we're 'special' because we happened to evolve as the most intelligent species on this planet. Humans created faith and religion- not the gods. It's a modern fairytale that tells us the promiss of a bright and wonderful future in the afterlife to make up for all the shittiness we have to deal with during life. They even went as far as write in the Bible, a supposedly HOLY book, that women must suffer the pains of birth because ONE single woman named Eva munchd of the Lord's fruits. Did you believe that too, when you I wonder?
It has been 6 months since my last log in and I have turned 27 by now. Nope, still not changing a damn bit! I'd like to commend the 'owner' of the 6 day old boy for having the balls to just say what he said on this board. You obviously understand what this is all about. We get SICK of people trying to shove the baby love down our throats- it's very good to know not ALL people that reproduced are like that!
I also feel like I need to point something out. People that comment here don't want to HARM children, nor do they deny their importance to our race in general. The initial poster never said he (or she?) blamed babies for the way they are, they are just annoying to him (or her). I don't understand what's so hard to understand about that?
It's simple: some of us don't. Like. Babies. It's not something we should seek help for, rather tell all those mindless breeders to get help!! Do you honestly believe the majority of people that spawn can take CARE of their child? Whoops! Well actually, I think I have a big effing point there considering all the suffering I see in child protective services in countries all around the world.
THE BREEDERS are the ones that need help, because they act on their maternal/ paternal feelings as most teens do on the lastest fashion trends! They NEVER ask themselves if they can deal with the stresses of parenthood, they NEVER ask themselves if this is the right thing to do, they NEVER ask themselves what they should do if they had to raise these children on a single wages only.
If you are offering help, go on and help them! We are very satisified with the way we are and HARMING NO ONE in the process. I can't say that of most irresponsible parents I see.
has to be:
"Did you believe that when you were giving birth to your son I wonder?"
Grrr, no edit button! ;(
When you look at the face of a baby, you see an untouched, unpressurized, uncensored form of a human. I agree; hating them is irrational and hate in general is irrational.
The reason I dislike babies is after the postman rolls up with a handful of bills, the dog shits on the carpet, Im falling asleep next to my coffee, its Monday morning and I have to be at work in half an hour, The wife is bitching in my ear about how all I want is sex and how I never clean the house, my stomach hurts, I had no sleep last nite, Im hungover, then my 2 yr old looks at me from his mountain of blocks and gives me a drooly smile.
If I could just have one day where I could play with blocks and drool.... and get breast-fed....
Yet that baby has not paid ONE bill, made her orgasm (at least I HOPE not), and those pair of jeans she wears? Yeah, not her money.
Yet I dont know what to do get her to play peek-a-boo with me.
It's not like you have to love babies.
Yeah, they get annoying... but have you actually spent time with a baby?
They smile, they giggle, they play with you, they understand. Toddlers help you do things and they are very nice. Not all the time, because they're children... and they are still learning how to behave themselves. But they aren't brats 24/7 unless they are raised wrong.
Sure, babies whine and cry, but if you were this tiny little thing that isn't able to even walk yet or explain anything, you'd be fussy too.
And yes, babies poop. And babies vomit. And babies make messes...
But that's where the maternal instinct kicks in.
Cleaning up other people's messing makes me want to puke, I don't do dishes because my family's dirty dishes with their spaghetti sauce is gross.
But I got 2 kittens and I instantly became loving, or "maternal" if you will, over them. I cleaned their shit off their foot when they stepped in it and it didn't gross me out one bit. You just lack the maternal instinct that woman are supposed to have to help the natural cycle of reproduction.
You're broken.
You're broken.'
Sorry, but who are you to tell a woman, ANY woman, that they are SUPPOSED to have a maternal instincts? Have you ever studied apes, because I can tell you didn't. We are apes, no matter if we like it or not and a lot of female apes actually don't know what to do with their children. As many as 1 in 4 females leave their young too die. We are an intelligent species. Bringing up babies is a choice. You can't spin all of this on hormones. What are you suggesting? That you are not woman enough if you haven't?
Do I or ANY other woman in this thread that openly admit they dislike children, sound broken to you, LOL? May I suggest you to spend a little bit more time in this world and widen your views a bit? Because, MooiePop, beautifull dollie or not, I have seen your profile and your age. I am not going to ef you over that, but seriously. People who have traumas, are broken. People don't have to go through sh*t in order to wake up one day and realize they don't like children. Two different things. It's kinda off to just say that to someone that doesn't like babies.
Oh an by the way. Your comparison with the kitten is completely off. I am the same with cats and kittens and A LOT of childfree people are genuine moms or dads when it comes to our 'fuzzy babies' of the animal kingdom.
Don't know why, just saying.
I just can't stand that kinda pressure. I wouldn't mind being a mom if I could have the kid and they could be older faster so I didn't have to keep dealing with catering to their every need.
I have seen how my mom acts and I just can't stand it. I don't even like the fact that you could accidentally have one of those drooly scary big eyed creatures. It's just so...ugh.
so I think your normal. Don't know about everyone else but whatever.
People who don`t like babies, don`t need to make them either . It`s simple . People who don`t want a baby and accidently have a baby put them up for adoption and give them THE WORST LIFE THEY COULD GET . so i think its good that people have opinions like this . make shure you tell everyone about it . So just incase you have a baby in the future , everyone can call you a hypocrite . plus ; what happens if your parents thought like this too ? would you be here ? think about it before you start saying " I HATE BABIES " this is just my opinion .
i hated kids under the age of 6 yrs, i just hate them i guess its cuz they just cry for everything they dont get. everytime i hear a 5yr old like that @ the store i feel like telling the mother 2 make the kid shut the fuck up x.x
The though of motherhood freaks me out, imagine someone growing up annoying you and always asking for stuff, sound slike a giant headach, but I guess its all part of life.
We all have our own opinions, your one on babies is very strong though. Wow
So, no, you're fucking weird. Sociopath.
but the problem is that Im in serious relationship and every time I mention my opinion(that Im not melting myself when Im around babies and hate playing with them or simply dont picture myself having one..Im also disgusted of the act itself of giving birth!!)and he becomes angry of my "cranky and stupid behavior"
and says what the hell is he doing with me then?!..its like Im being forced to do something that its expected from me,just because Im a femmale..damn..Im not a reproducing animal:)))
Normal
I don't see them as repulsive as this person does, but I don't like being around them. Yes, they can be cute but I find a baby kitten much cuter. I would never, EVER harm a child or a baby, just no, but I don't like being around them either, I have no patience. I just hate how smug parents can be, just because we don't want kids.
Not everyone wants to have kids like you did, God knows we don't need anymore in this world, this world is a shitty place to live in.
Babies are God's creation and so are you. Do not hate them. If you don't like them, than I suggest to you, to not have any.
Have a happy single life, because without a child to care for, you would have no family to take care of you when you are old. Family, is the core and steel of one's heart and mind.
Don't forget about what your mother did to give you life and raise you.
I say that is plain mean spirited. What do you call it? Constructive criticism?
Nope - to be hateful is to be mean spirited
Oh, and baby's are baby's for a reason...they aren't supposed to function like adults. They are helpless and depend on adults to take care of them.
You have the right to your emotions and anyone who robs you of them are the ones who aren't "normal". Don't let anyone invalidate your feelings, it can cause you some psychological damage later.
Don't let anyone (including yourself) judge your feelings as "right" or "wrong". Believe in yourself and your decisions.
If your mate tries to make you feel bad for your feelings, he/she is setting you up for a toxic relationship and it's best to avoid toxic people. You should weigh out the pros and cons of your relationship and find out from there what the correct choice to do is.
But even so, if that was the case, you really mean what you said. You tried hard to rationalize your opinions. So, there's something real to it anyway.
Definitely and clearly it is a case of aggression by fear. You hate them because you are so afraid of the responsibility of caring for them. You say so much, openly, in different parts of your post.
Then, whichever if you posted it bona fide or not, you really should try to deal with what seems a particular case of hypengyophobia (i.e. irrational fear of responsibilities).
Maybe, when you were a child, were made less by the arrival of a baby? And or were you harshly or persistently scolded for doing something wrong about a baby, or weren't you allowed around one and was told you were too clumsy or incapable to take care of it or be careful about it?
Are you too stressed by any other responsibilities you have to take in your life?
If any of that, in effect you could have hypengyophobia which would be the substrate of your acute disliking of babies.
Call it fear of responsibility. I for my part have a clearly defined sense for responsibility and my fears, and don't need to lie to others or myself.
I don't want to be responsible for my potential child to grow up in this world as it currently is. I fear it would be unhappy. I am not sure. I am however, considering simple facts, quite positive it would.
I've noticed people here accidentally confusing this with a theological discussion by mentioning SOUL and GOD to underline statements like WE ARE NO ANIMALS.
Yes we are.
Especially those of you who have chosen to breed.
And no, god or soul has nothing to do with it.
Neither has Superman and his heat vision.
You people who don't want children, and don't like children and seem to experience a NATURAL repulsion to children, are the most normal, honest and by far most advanced humans there are.
You, by listening to your minds and bodies, realize that you see no need in spawning offspring. I hereby thank you for putting thought in your action. The future is yours.
-You, oh so caring assholes, better adopt and stop being bigots if you want to love and be loved and give somebody a future.
-If you want a child as product of your love to somebody (your wife/husband), then you are a liar and asshole, and your kid deserves to die at birth, together with you.
-If you are scared of racial shit, OOOOH A WHITE COUPLE AND BLACK/ASIAN/INDIAN/(INSERT ETHNICITY), then you are an egoist and don't deserve a child. Neither adopted or of your own. Go fuck you.
-So you say a child will always be as good as the loving and caring parents make it? Then why do you insist on your GENES to be part of the child? Because you know you're full of shit? Or because you want somebody to continue some kind of shitty legacy? Like what? Carry on your forefather's last name for reasons you can't explain (false pride - but you can't admit it to yourself)?
I've met a lot of people during the course of my life, and this argument was usually stated by unemployed people who missed most of their teeth and often some of their fingers - in some cases due to congenital reason on which there is no need to elaborate.
Risking to sound a bit negative here, I'm just honest and realistic.
Cheers.
That was absolutely hilarious. You've absolutely GOT to watch ERASERHEAD, a film by David Lynch. You'll LOVE it...
