      Some random person walks up and lifts your baby over their head with one arm = not okay because you don’t know them or trust them to not harm the kid.

      The baby’s father doing it = nerve-wracking, yes, but you at least know he’s gonna try to be careful.

        morally it’s the exact same thing. you’re taking a child, who doesn’t understand enough about danger to consider consent, and putting them in a potentially life-threatening situation for entertainment purposes. there are safe ways to toss your baby. sitting here defending doing it over hard ground with one hand is fucking stupid

            that’s the center square on “I don’t actually have any arguments” bingo. keep going, I’ve only got two more squares to fill

              I’ve been encountering more jerks on here lately. Lemmy must be getting more popular!

                no see, I appreciate all of your red flags. lets me know early that interacting with you is going to be a waste of time. anyway, if you want people to know that you’re a redditor, keep pasting responses that you read over there

      If you’re the parent then the child is your property and responsibility, if you break it by accident you can make another. If someone else breaks your kid then they owe you a kid, but you don’t want someone else’s kid, so now you’re in a troublesome situation
