I was singing to my daughter when she was around that age and told me to stop singing. I asked why and she told me, because you can't

    3 year olds are brutal. Sweet and innocent, with opinions based on little, and zero tact.

    My two year old's best friend is a three year old... Jfc it's like watching innocence and insanity play together. I love her friend but damn she's brutal. While my girl is still a bit too small to be hurt or angry about mistreatment and lets so much slide. And in a year my forgiving two year old will be this intimidating mess.

    least brutal 3-year-old/freshly born.

    I'm imagining toddlers growing up to hate their parents' music taste, because they already fucking hated it when they played it to them when they were a fetus in utero.

    The dad hyped up "fuck yeah I'm gonna teach this kid to love Slayer because I'm playing it to him now when they're in there!". And then they hate it like "THIS IS WHAT THAT SHIT WAS, I HATED IT ALL THE FUCKING TIME, FUCK YOU!"

    Like there was for a while the whole "Play Mozart/Beethoven to your kid in the womb and they'll be smarter" and shit - there's no way everyone universally likes classical music. I know several older people who don't enjoy music at all, which just seems bizarre.

    It's not like every kids gonna pop out and be like "That Mozart's Requiem was some shit, man! Play it again!".

    It's also a fucking dumb approach to making the kid smart anyways. You don't need a high iq to appreciate classical music, and there is nothing inherently intelligent about listening to music

    Yeah well dumb people will try dumb ways to magically make their dumb kids smart. Wicked smaht. We played them Mozart 24/7 so they'd be smaht and look at him. So smaht. And the kid grows up to be an insomniac serial killer who grew dissecting any animals they got their hands on.

    Music wasn't always so easily accessible as it is now. I think really only the radio was something everyone would have access to. If you had vinyl, CDs etc then you were at least somewhat musically inclined and some folks would just not be and never really get into it or invest in getting their own music. Not that they would literally never hear or listen to music but it wasn't one of their hobbies. Compared to today where we all have access to music on demand and it would be weird if you don't have at least some preferences or something.

    Young kids do not have the mental capacity to differentiate between "I learned something new" and "I always had this opinion". They are simply incapable of the former position.

    There are psychology experiments with children that show this effect, it's pretty wild.

    The original You Are My Sunshine had something ridiculous like 48 verses many of which have been lost and it went on for twelve minutes. Though I forget where I read that, and I can't find it again, so it may have been some kind of weird fever dream.
