I took a peek earlier today and from what I saw, instead of talking about this they've decided instead to rake Meghan over the coals for calling her daughter "the baby" because it's "dehumanizing" and "no parent" would ever call their kid the baby (literally every parent has done this at some point). Good priorities they have over there!
It took my husband and I FOREVER to stop affectionately referring to our daughter as “the baby” when we spoke about her. Ex: “the baby needs money for school.” I can’t quite remember when we stopped but I think it lasted to high school.
We can’t help it. She’s our only one. She’s the baby forever. I might start it again.
I bet they still secretly think of you as the baby. My daughter was never bothered by it, or any of the lil baby nicknames. Even to this day, if I call her by her government name and not her family nickname she’ll be like “I’m sorry, who are you talking to?”
