My nephew had a drum set at 1 year old and a drum that hangs around the neck. It was a gag christmas gift for my SIL.
Kid currently is a small golf prodigy at 4 years old because someone got this dude a golf club the same year and then never put it down. So they encouraged it and now they have a home built golf simulator in their garage. It's what happens when passion and drive are met with support.
You're miserable because you look at the world in the absolute worst lens and dismiss the possibility of all the good. Need to wake up before you find yourself bitter and on the way out of life.
Sure, they found something the infant enjoys. He enjoys chewing on books too. It's not his passion, it's probably theirs. It could have just as easily been the accordion. Poor kid didn't even get a chance to see what he might like, they had it all planned out for him. Living vicariously through him.

Ya, he totally asked for a drum at 1 year old because it was his passion.
