Pointless but has me rolling my eyes.

Saw this on a girl from my high school Facebook status.
"My child will never ever have a pacifier. Too me it's a hush up tool for lazy parents. So please do not buy any. They will be thrown away. "

It is exactly as she wrote it. Need I say more?

fancefpp

Holy shit...I curse every day that ds2 won't take a pacifier. I love pacifiers! She's in for a rude awakening and probably a colicky baby.

TrulyBlessed22

Wow, is she pregnant and is this her first? If so, she will soon learn lol. I plan on weaning DD off her hers just before 1 but I think it's a wonderful soothing tool and has nothing to do with being lazy.

Exactly! And yes it's her first, I was surprised by so many comments who agreed. One girl even said she wasn't putting her baby in a swing because it causes bad habits and that baby will sleep in a crib because that's what they are for.

TrulyBlessed22

Lmao @PumpkinAndThePeanut! It's so true though...I love it when people make comments like those and have to eat their words lol

MOMama987

On a related note... my childless "friend" called LO's pacifier his "mute button." Um... no.

This is lazy parenting.

Lol!  I wish LO took a pacifier!!   I regret not training him to use it...because now there is nothing but me and the bottle.

No one else thinks this is clever? No? Just me then....ok...

You bishes and your gifs just woke my baby. Thank god she takes a pacifier and will fall right back asleep!

Tell your friend she knows nothing and even prisoners in gitmo say they won't crack on the way in. I give that bish one week before she's at walgreens (shoppers for The Canucks) at 2 am searching for newborn sized paci's!!!

I would think this trumps that for lazy parenting.

I cannot stop laughing at this! Also I really hate when a preparent says "never"... It makes me laugh so hard I snort. And yes, I'm pretty sure I just made up a word in this comment

c-elizabethf

You all crack me up

Haha my SIL had a baby in September and gave me soooo much grief over every thing I did and vowed she'd never give him a paci, put in a bouncy chair, or have him sleep in their room. Over Christmas I saw her hammering in that paci while bouncing him the chair after he got up from a nap in their bedroom. I don't not feel bad at all watching it unfold.

Shoegal36

Wow. Just wow. 

As much as we tried, we couldn't get LO to take one, and now that I see my 6 week old nephew with one...those things are freaking magical. 

I feel embarrassed for people that say crap like that. I hope they get called out by someone when they actually do it.

See what I mean...had to eat her words lol

Like others said first time parents that say never have oh sooo much to learn. With my 1st he would not take paci, he cried harder if he had it. Baby #2 loved it and used it all the time. Baby # 3 is like big brother and hates it too. I am sure after a day she will thinking about paci being lazy parenting this way

snowgirl427

I wanted to wait about a month but they gave him one in the hospital when they did the circ.

Plus, I'd rather have something to calm him down vs screaming his head off.

jesselayne8

I get jealous when I see babies happily sucking on pacis.  Neither of my kids took one and I bought every damn brand the store had and tried for months.

jayro10

Yeah, M took a pacifier like two times in her first month and that was it. Just like bottles, I've got a stash full of different pacifiers that she won't take. I gave up long ago, but man did I wish she would take one in those first several months!

Blueyed228

I would pay cash money for my son to take a paci

TheyCalledHerKate

Well then I must be the laziest parent in all of the land, LOL. My baby girl loves her paci. She has liked to suck since she was born and it's very soothing to her. I hope she gives birth to a perfect baby who doesn't need a pacifier.

drhibbard

I thought I wouldn't give my kid a paci. Then I had a kid and was like "whoa" when sage started screaming. She refused it. I never posted a douchetastic status on Facebook about it though.

drhibbard

Please share the first paci picture she posts though! I'm pretty sure there will be one.

Oh I will lol.

JoJo716

DS has also refused a paci since birth and I would love it if he took one. My friend's baby takes one and literally, all she has to do to get him to sleep is put the paci in. Every time I see her do this, I'm like this is bullshit!

Schell2013

I hope she has tough nipples for those nights her baby just wants to suck for hours for the fun of it like mine did.

Never say never about anything.

My kid uses pacis as his "loveys." I put like 4 in his crib. He will crawl around and gather them all together and fall asleep clutching them to his chest. Kid desperately needs a teddy bear. lol

Same here!

emmy236

I saw a paci in target that actually said "mute button". Really wanted to get it except it's not the kind R likes. He's quite the paci snob. We also called the FP Piano Mat the "Babysitter" and I can now stick him in his jumperoo and do whatever I want, like I can pee when I have to, eat when I'm hungry and ....wait for it.... take a SHOWER! She may think that's lazy I call it a luxury.

None of my kids used a pacifier but I would never call it lazy parenting at all. I did not try to get them used to one and we were fine, about half of my nieces and nephews have used them and they are all fine as well. Who could possibly care if somebody else's baby uses a pacifier?

Pacifier use is such a stupid thing to take a stand against.

Edit Crooked teeth can be caused by so many things, like genetics. Both of my sons needed braces and they didn't have a pacifier or suck their thumb or finger. For a pacifier to cause damage they would still need to be using it when they were near 5 or 6. (As far as the doctor and dentist told my sister)

c-elizabethf

One of her reasonings besides laziness was it causes buck teeth.

huzzahuzza

Ahhhh the judgements I made before I knew any better..... but I never posted them on Facebook!!!!

nbatchen

One of my friends from high school said the same thing. Guess who's baby always has a wubbanub hanging out of her mouth!
