A UGLY BABY."

I have never come across a baby who isn't 'cute'
There is this innocence that babies have which makes them cute.

If someone calls ur baby ugly then they are calling u ugly, I can either tell them to take a hike or remove myself and my baby from their vicious tongue.

If a person calls my child ugly,I would give her a name she would never forget.like a silly aunty used to call my younger brother king kong cos he was very very big.he weighed 5kg at birth,the name really pained my mum but she couldn't do anytin.so she decided to started playfully calling my aunty queen of apes.the name stock to her and till today.even my grandmother calls her quEen of apes till date.so I would frist be polite and tell the person to stop but if she doesn't she would land a nick name she would never forget in a hurray

come on people!!!!!
as much as it is not nice to openly tell people that their kid is ugly, WE HAVE ALL MET SOMEONE WITH AN UGLY CHILD!!!!
i dont care how people want to put it, whether it be not so cute or special, some children out there are ugly......who are we kidding?

yes, most mothers will always see the beauty in their children, but that doesnt change the facts.
so YES we shouldnt say it aloud, but NO not all babies are cute.

Op you are so perverted for real.

Someone said the child didnt take the parents' beauty but will do so later, and you now opened thread on nl?

Gosh, too many freaks in this place.

So you've never seen a not so good looking kid who grew up to become a dazzling beauty?

Maybe you have seen more babies than I have, all I have said is that I haven't seen an ugly baby before. I am not counting those born with deformities.

You haven't seen them yet. I agree that there's an innocence sha that won't just let you call a kid ugly. But kids that aint so cute, often grow up to be beautiful!

If a baby is called ugly, then its PARENTS need to change that perception.




End of, and no need for psychos to open senseless threads like i .diots.
Re: What Would You Do If Someone Called Your Kid Ugly? by tpia5: 4:55pm On Oct 05, 2012
i just dont know the kind of demonic illiterates wey full this place.

yet they are the ones who are very quick to open threads.

these are the same people who engage in "naming conventions"- ie asking others which names do you find ugly, which names must you never give your child, which names should we abuse today, etc.

makes me understand why some are calling for the separation of nigeria because some of these people are just too terribly uncivilized.

its wrong to tell someone his or her baby is ugly. Keep such an opinion to yourself.

Some years back, I was in Chicken Republic and there waa this Chinese couple. They had a baby that wasn't cute. Of course, that doesn't mean I'll love the baby less if he was in my care.
Re: What Would You Do If Someone Called Your Kid Ugly? by nlPoster: 5:28pm On Dec 10, 2019
It's wrong to expect to hear anything positive about yourself when you eavesdrop?

There's too much potential for misinformation. Very few people would call a baby ugly in front of the parents. But when you take eavesdropping as if the person is talking directly to you, it's not good. You dont give the offender the chance for ambiguity in meaning. Same applies to reading comments on social media or nairaland. It's not always necessarily what you think and sometimes taking offence is not the required response. Other times it is perhaps.

Having said that, all babies are cute, and they are more cute when the parents make sure of it by giving them love and attention, cuddling, etc. Babies respond to those.

I don't have time for negative vibe around me. If it happens, I will say "thank you, I like my baby the way he/she is", simple

Thank God my baby is cute sha, too much cuteness..

Well so long as you don’t buy tons of skineal, fungbact cream and other loads of steroidal and other bleaching creams? We are good. Any other reaction is pretty much okay (I guess)

That was how i went to one naming ceremony some time ago, when they brought the baby out, one irritating woman beside me just said "how will a new born baby be this black and ugly" in Yoruba, and her was voice was loud, she laughed after saying it o, imagine, every one turned to look at her, I was so embarrassed ehn, people should learn not to voice out their stupid thought, sometimes.

Re: What Would You Do If Someone Called Your Kid Ugly? by nlPoster: 11:34am On Dec 11, 2019
What was the exact phrase you say the lady used please?

Yoruba doesnt have a word for ugly as far as I know. Neither would black be referred to as ugly, rather the parents would be asked about the baby's look if something seems off.

In any case, sometimes people can speak carelessly, I dont think you needed to bring tribe.

I still remember calling tiwa savage son ugly, but look at him now so cute and handsome

the point is as time goes on little children terms to look more beautiful and handsome.
