Some People

Some people generally indifferent towards babies. Some people absolutely love them.

Whenever I take Baby J out somewhere she usually waddles over to a stranger and tries to take their cell phone. Sometimes the strangers delight in the attempted theft, smile and talk to the little thief. Other times they just kind of walk away.

Kids are the same way. Sometimes, they are totally put off by the presence of a friendly baby. Other times they talk to Baby J and invite her to play with them, run around and make her giggle.

It makes me wonder if there is something innate that make some people like kids and makes others find them unnerving. Maybe it's genetic. Maybe it has to do with having had a baby in your life in some capacity.
