Baby consumerism makes disgusting children

So when you are having a baby, you get on all kinds of mailing lists for free magazines, coupons, and catalogs. Aside from the gigantic waste of paper, free stuff is nice. The magazines have some helpful information, but most are full of advice on what you are supposed to buy for your new child. If you don't get them the best of everything, you don't love your child as much as you should. You are a bad parent, and your baby will die a horrible death in that entry-level car seat.

But I really just wanted to post this cover of the new American Baby magazine. Gross!!! I found the image of this child repulsive. So big, on the cover, and in your face. Made up like a doll and in a bikini?? At first glance, I thought this was a 25-year-old with some sort of gland problem. Or maybe an exploited Hollywood baby with a psychotic, obsessed mother.
(If you saw this and said, "Awww! She is so cute!" You should be ashamed!)

Summer's Here! Make your baby look like a superstar! Anyone that can shit, piss, and cry so much deserves the spotlight!
No...Put it on page 43, not the cover.
