    This meme assumes the reader finds babies to be cute and adorable, rather than terrifying little goblins.

      It’s different for everyone, but I was always put off by kids for all the typical reasons (boring, sticky, annoying, etc.), until I got pregnant.

      I don’t mean that I love my kid so it’s different. I mean that the hormones associated with pregnancy changed all of my priorities. Thank god I had an abortion (I’d have a preteen with an alcoholic father and me for a mother- that’s not fair to a child), but it was much more difficult than I expected it to be.

      With the pregnancy hormones, I definitely would have cried at this ad. Congratulations to them for emotionally manipulating the most emotionally unstable group in the world?

      It’s intended to fuck with the mom-brain of a pregnant woman. Like putting porn in front of a guy going through No-Nut November. The goal is to hit those animal instincts and cause intense anxiety.

      They’re not trying to influence teenage edgelords.

      I hate babies. They don’t know shit and they take up too many resources. Nevermind the selfish parents tying up the world’s resources for their next of kin these ppl r pathetic
