Is there anyone out there who thinks their baby is ugly?

My Wife and I were talking about our daughter and how she is the cutest baby in the world. I asked her if she thought our baby was the cutest and he was baffled because she is.

This sparked the question, does every parent think their baby is the cutest or are there parents out there who don’t think their babies are cute?

I am kind of hoping to get a laugh out of this question but I genuinely want to know. Is this a hormonal/parental thing or are there people who don’t think their babies are all that good-looking?

I was preoccupied with my son’s cuteness. In all honesty, though, he appeared somewhat like an oversized Cheeto and had a sick case of jaundice.

Love, pride, and instincts as parents all play a huge part in why parents think their baby is the cutest. Because of that loving lens, the majority of parents find their child to be very adorable. It is a sweet, organic aspect of being a parent!

It is a natural instinct for parents to think their baby is the cutest! While others may maintain a more detached perspective, the vast majority finds their children to be utterly endearing. It is probably an evolved reaction to guarantee care. Thus, your wife’s response makes perfect sense—she views your little joy as the most valuable thing in the world!
