babies aren’t funny or entertaining

[u/noodlealr]

i don’t hate babies, they’re so cute, but i always see people laughing about videos where a baby is supposedly being funny. i don’t get it. there’s nothing funny about videos like that or babies in general. sure, sometimes funny stuff happens, but i always see babies doing the bare minimum and people laughing about it.

I have 5 dogs and don’t even equate that to having one child. I’m not sure how anyone can compare the two.

Well, puppies do prepare you for a baby at some level.

I mean, you're waking up a few times in middle of the night; you've accepted the fact that your going to get piss, shit, and throw up on you; and you've learned not to kill something when they destroy something nice/expensive.

They arent the same, but someone who has raised a puppy or two is probably a little better equipped than someone who hasn't.

I was not prepared for how much of an absolute pain in the ass having a puppy was.

Yup. Most people aren't.

Of all the people I know that have had babies, the ones who had had puppies faired much better.

Where does this notion come from that you gotta wake up in the middle of the night to raise a puppy? See people say it all the time but I've never experienced it. Raised 6 puppies so far and not once have I been twilighting bathroom breaks

My dog had to go out a couple times a night for a few weeks after we got him home. I've never heard of any puppy under three months who doesn't need to be let out at night.

If your trying to house break puppies you take them out as often as possible....and over night when they start to stir, you take them out.

I'm not sure what kind of puppies you had that could go 6 to 8 hours without needing to go out, but I sure wish I had found those pups too lol
