Intro

Go Super to Listen Go Super!

It’s strange to think about how every person you know was once a baby. Babies are very cute, but also loud and a little scary. Some people these days live lives that don’t have a lot of babies in them. If you live in a city and mostly hang out with adults who don’t have children, you might not see babies very often. If you don’t have a lot practice, babies can be intimidating. They are breakable, but that’s part of the appeal.

I like babies if they are my siblings, my cousins or if it’s my own child. If it’s someone esle’s kid, I would prefer not to deal with it. I like babies when I don’t have to care of them or play with them. What I don’t like about little babies is that they are loud and always want to be paid attention to, like they are the center of universe. That’s annoying.

Of course I like babies.. Who can hate angels!


I’m growing up in a family has a lot of babies on both mother and father’s side.. And I do hold them and feed them, that’s incredible _ I just hate it when a baby bursts into crying, I feel that he might has his cords cut out of the very loud crying :( .. That really upsets me..

To have a baby is a wonderful experience because you can see how your life in the past was. Babies have a little world that can make you very happy. I love babies.

All babies  without exception are so sweet. They are all innocent and totally depended on our attitude to them. From the first day of their birth, we should treat them with respect if we want them to be  honest, compassionate  and succesful in the future.


My favorite things about babies are their hugs, kisses and first words they say. We should never forget the rule: the more love and respect we give them, the happier they are and will be. If we want our children to be near us  till our last day, let’s teach them rightly so as not to regret about inappropriate behavior of us.


I never wait gratitude from my son either for caring about him or for any help. I have been doing  it because I love him. I belive he loves me mutually.

I love babies. Since I was 4 years old I use to ask people to let me hold their babies. I have babies around all the time because every year a differentclassmate, co-worker or neighbor has an offspring.


The best part about them is how they are cute and controllable since they can not walk or speak.


The worst part is how fragile they are.

oh my honesty compells me to say that I am crazy about babies. Let me say, my collegue has got s baby called Danny. They are from America; however, they lead a life in Turkey as English teachers. And Danny… he is such a bonnie baby that I can’t help myself kissing and hugging him tightly. He is the number-one to me!!!

I like babies, i have two, they would always be babies even how old they become. When they got sick and couldn’t talk yet it is frustrating in trying to help them feel better.
