Young parents on facebook...

eltigretom · 7 months

I find the most annoying thing to be these

i.e. "Proud single Mom here! 3% will post this... blah blah blah"

I'm just going to say, my 51 year old dad took pictures of my brother and I all the damn time to show to his coworkers, boss, and the rest of our family. Every time he was going out to see someone, he'd have a new binder filled with 50 pictures of my brother and I on a bike ride or posing next to a tiger.

Now I have a bunch of pictures to show to my kids. So yeah, thanks Dad. Now they can see how cool their mom was.

If you don't like it, hide it. I don't have any kids, but I am sure people hide me for my postings of my cats. Even though my cats are fucking amazing!

I have a handful of new parents in my facebook feed, and I find I hardly ever see photos of their children.

Honestly, I wouldn't mind if they posted more so as to increase the likelihood that I remember the names, or at least count of their offspring.

"Hi Jane! How's the kid?"

"Kid? I have three now. What planet are you from?!"

They might post less if each cute picture didn't get 89 likes and comments

drop0ut · 7 months

Scumbag redditor, hates on kid pictures... OMG ANOTHER FUCKIN' CAT. ಠ_ಠ

Babies are probably the most important part of those people's lives. We all use the book of the face to project what we feel is cool or important in our lives. All the posts about going out and getting wasted, or what just happened in that super important college basketball game, that probably isn't all that interesting to them, just as their baby's pictures aren't interesting to you.

Yes, it's so horrible. If only there was some way to hide them, perhaps even to remove them from your news feed.

Seriously, someone posting something on a public website where you chose of your own volition to follow them (as I doubt anyone held a gun to your head and made you Facebook them) is hardly comparable to someone shoving something in your face, no matter how tedious or repetitive the content is.

istillfeelyou · 7 months

Sounds just like parents of any age. Big whoop.

johnnytoomuch · 7 months

Actually this is pretty much the only reason I'm still on FB, so my family across the country can see pictures of my kids. I have a lot of friends on FB that do stuff that annoys me too. So I hide their posts. Before FB I would get mass emails from relatives and friends filling my inbox with megabytes worth of pictures. Giving me the option to look or not look is a better alternative.

Well, nine times out of ten, the people who hate baby pictures usually have whole online photo albums of themselves looking like a fuckwad and entitled "The night I drank alcohol and was so cool" or something.

You'd think if you friended these people, you'd be interested in things that are making them happy.

ChicagoThor · 7 months

New parent here, and I am guilty of this. If you don't like it, hide me.

Sariell · 7 months

My understanding is that it's less annoying when you have your own kids.

I don't hide the entire feed of my parent friends.. just their photos.

PullTheOtherOne · 7 months

I don't know, I think the general theme of "I made a new human being with my genitals and I love it more than I ever imagined I could love something and it brings me so much joy and everything in my life has completely changed for good!" is pretty high on the list of significant things to post about, especially compared to most of the other day-to-day nonsense that gets posted all the time.

If it annoys you so much when your friends share things they are excited about, why are they your friends?

eggowaffles · 7 months

Then they make it their profile picture and I'm stuck wondering when the hell I became friends with a baby.

LoversElegy · 7 months

Majority of my facebook friends are either already parents or are currently pregnant. Even the first time mothers aren't spamming pictures of their newborns. I haven't even posted any specific posts about my pregnancy yet. I don't know who you guys associate with, but if you really have an issue hide their posts, and quit complaining! For those of you saying "already done" then why exactly are you complaining? Simple solutions to things that are really not a big deal.

SoulAssassyn · 7 months

I'm a new dad... and it's one of those things where I completely realize I'm doing this... but I can't stop. I need an intervention, lol

calm_collective · 7 months

The youngest parents I know don't allow people to put photos of their kid on Facebook or put any up themselves.

sadwer · 7 months

My solution: I don't friend people who I don't want to hear from. If they're someone whose kids I legitimately don't care about and don't want to see every single picture they post, they're not close enough to me for me to Facebook friend them.

It's Facebook, not fucking Pokemon.

RandianHero · 7 months

I care about your kid almost as little as I care about your cat.

PiousRaptor · 7 months

My favorite ~~proud~~ EVERYONE LOVE MY CHILD parent: Hughes

Vivaciousqt · 7 months

Always refer to this when i see baby pictures and crap on facebook.

cochranfirm · 7 months

Yes! All in my news feed every.single.day.

eggowaffles · 7 months

I didn't log into facebook for about 6 months until 2 days ago. All I see now are wedding/baby pics. I'm going to take another 6 month break.

pixel_princess · 7 months

As a photographer- Don't hate on baby pictures! I LOVE people gawking over the pictures I post of my client's kids...that "liking" and commenting pays my bills ;)

4nonymo · 7 months

PROTIP: IF YOU DON'T LIKE WHAT'S ON FACEBOOK, CLOSE YOUR FUCKING EYES, OR...GET THIS ONE...DON'T GO TO THAT SITE

wtf reddit

taterred · 7 months

Is it considered child pornography when they post pics of their naked babies?

pakron · 7 months

This resonates with me greatly. It's like when a friend gets preggers she loses all identity of herself, and for the next few years will only post pictures of her kid. This is no exaggeration either, I have looked. Every picture is a baby picture.

Oh well, that's what the hide button is for. Hope you're not saying anything important!

YouTypeA · 7 months

That and them posting naked pictures of their children saying its so cute. Instantly Unsubscribe from them.

[deleted] · 7 months

HAHA THIS WAS A GAG ON FAMILY GUY HAHA

PocketAcesFTW · 7 months

My new least favorite thing is when I'm friends with both the parents (no longer together) and every time they have their time with the kid they post TONS of pictures... Just to get under the other person's skin....

darkkittykatt · 7 months

sorry ,that is me.

MrKMJ · 7 months

Anybody else watch that through about 5 cycles waiting for it to fully load?

SmartW3ntCrazy · 7 months

Guilty as charged. I guess I'm not really young though.

Kotton · 7 months

anyone else notice the black chick changing tones on the right?

SirAuron · 7 months

Sorry, distracted by purple dress. It was changing tint or something.

emmawatsonsbf · 7 months

"hey reddit, look what my gf/son/daughter/dad/mom made me"

carlistatheist · 7 months

This is the entire reason I left face book. There were other things that annoyed me about it but that really was the straw that broke the camels back. I know I can block them and blah, blah but man there were a bunch of them making a bunch of retarded posts all the time.

johnstonchron · 7 months

something about posting pictures of a person who is too young to understand, all over the internet, forever to be there.......doesn't seem right

wtfmanquestionmark · 7 months

Here is the deal. My parents, aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents are all on facebook. They eat that shit up so if you don't mind just refresh and it will be gone. :)

SonofSonofSpock · 7 months

I am generally not a fan of baby pictures, but my niece is the cutest baby in the world and I constantly badger my brother to put up new pictures of her.
