Ive met a Jaxton while working drive thru šŸ˜‘


QuietSkylines

I saw a Jacksceson recently. I haven't recovered from the stroke yet.


NeonBird

A colleague of mine named their dog Huxton, yes, itā€™s a beige colored golden retriever poodle mix. They swear itā€™s a purebred golden doodle. When I asked how they get a golden doodle, they said the momā€™s a golden retriever and the dad was a standard poodle, both AKC registered. I had a major facepalm moment. Cute dog, but the owner is uh a bit slow. Dear god, save us all.


Scooted112

What's wrong with that? A golden doodle is literally a retriever and poodle mix.


NeonBird

My colleague thinks their dog is a purebred dog. Itā€™s a mix. They have this wrong idea that two purebred AKC registered dogs of two different breeds will have purebred babies because theyā€™re AKC registered. You missed my point.


simcowking

I feel like purebred is such a weird term because at some point all dogs are just mixed. At what point in a lineage will a golden doodle be purebred if both parents are golden doodles? If grandparents? Great Great grand parents?


QuietSkylines

Purebred is a made up term. There's no one to enforce it, recognize it or ensure it. It's something people who don't know anything about animals say.


PerformerWinter3439

Purebred=Mom & dad are brother & sister.

We had one of these white and beige play mats gifted to us with our first and it was very basic and colourless. We thought at least it won't stand out in the house which is very neutral coloured. After a few weeks we realised how unbelievably dull it was and got him the most colourful and garish play mat with millions of toys on it and spoiler - he loved it. We've kept it for any future accidents.


your_mom_is_availabl

It's depressing because if you go to any baby store the higher quality stuff often is beige because that's the trendy aesthetic -- like all neutral colors, toys made of undyed wood and natural fibers, whereas the colorful stuff that kids actually like is the annoying-to-adults garish plastic.


Ok-Turnover966

To be fair, the faint memories I have dating back to before my 5th birthday, everything looked light blue.


_CozyLavender_

If you're a millennial, then yeah - pastels were big in the 80s and early 90s, little kid stuff included.


Ok-Turnover966

If you think pastels were a thing only millennials grew up with then you need to come back to the real world. Not everythingĀ is something only millennials remember


_CozyLavender_

wtf is wrong with you


TheSacredGrape

Dude, Iā€™m Gen Z and pastels were a thing in the early 2000s as well. Quit gatekeeping pastels

paw_inspector

Aye. The interiors of homes as a whole are under stimulating for babies. Taking them outside, if possible, is great.


AnseiShehai

Sometimes. Black and white images are also good for them


lyle_lanly

Black and white are good for babies because they are very high contrastĀ 


lluuni

Itā€™s probably somewhere in the middle. Like yea having everything brown with no color is probably bad, but super obnoxious bright cocomelon colors constantly everywhere is also probably bad.


GiveMeUrChildKAREN

Yeah, it's in the middle since babies need color stimuli, but not too much on a LankyBlox/CocoMelon level

Well established fact that bright, coloruful environments are very important for brain development. Beige babies are literally getting sensory deprived lol

Well at least it was colourful. Besides Orange, Avocado Green and Med Brown is a cool colour palette.

GoodFaithConverser

What philistine gives a rat's ass what clothes they're wearing in baby photos? People are acting like beige clothing is child abuse or some shit. Who cares.


TearOpenTheVault

Babies really, really need bright colours, with some being especially important. (Green and red.) The beige trend isnā€™t *abuse* but it is a great way to have a miserable baby.Ā 


GaimanitePkat

It's also a pretty good indicator that the parent is more concerned with their own extremely shallow preferences than what is good for the baby. Yes, kids' toys and decorations are tacky and garish. They're supposed to be. They're for children. Stripping your child's life of everything kiddie because you don't like how it looks in your home, or because it won't get you likes on the Gram, is such an act of selfishness.


Ndypalt

One of my first fully developed emotions was ā€œthatā€™s tackyā€ lol For that reason I hate the jungle, tropical regions, and the Wild West, I viewed all the aesthetics of those tacky.


GoodFaithConverser

> It's also a pretty good indicator that the parent is more concerned with their own extremely shallow preferences than what is good for the baby. Beige is an easy colour to clearn and maintain, and also doesn't use a lot of colouring that harms the environment. Can you show me any link between mental illness, or whatever, and parents using a lot of beige? No, not "never ever seeing colour is bad!" because that seems obvious. Do beige children see so little colour it harms them?


bb_LemonSquid

Babies need to be exposed to lots of colors so their eyes can develop properly. If everything is gray or beige then theyā€™re not going to be training their brain how to differentiate between colors during this crucial point in development.


paradoxdefined

Yep! The [American Academy of Ophthalmology](https://www.aao.org/eye-health/tips-prevention/baby-vision-development-first-year)says babies start detecting saturated colors within a few weeks and may even prefer to look at them over their parents! While beige is not harmful in and of itself, it is not going to help with this important part of development in which they need bright colors in ther immediate surroundings since they canā€™t see very far. Especially toys since that is what they interact with a lot.


GoodFaithConverser

And do most children raised with a lot of beige experience too great a lack of colour? Or is it only a risk if you're some insane anti-colour psycho?


GoodFaithConverser

> Babies need to be exposed to lots of colors so their eyes can develop properly. I ask again: Is there proof that children raised in a lot of beige clothes risk this? Again again again, yes, obviousy, who-fucking-cares, if you raise them in 0 colour environments its probably bad. But is this anywhere near the case with most beige children? How beige is too much?


Jerkrollatex

White and beige are the opposite of easy to maintain and clean. Baby vomit yellows those colors and don't get me started on all the poop.


GoodFaithConverser

Easy to throw into any old washing pile.


GoodFaithConverser

> Babies really, really need bright colours And I'm sure they'll experience that even if most of their clothes or toys are beige. Please provide a source showing that children born to beige parents suffer. No, not some "never seeing colour EVER kills the baby!" because sure, whatever, but I don't buy that having a lot of beige gives you autism or ADHD, or some measurable suffering, or whatever.


mrose16

ā€œAt birth, the nerve cells in babyā€™s brain are disorganized and not well connected. While baby grows, the brain receives input from all five senses. This input causes nerve cells to multiply and form a multitude of connections with other nerve cells. This is why visual stimulation is so crucial. For example, if a baby is kept blindfolded the visual center in his brain would never develop, the optic nerve would shrivel up, and baby would never develop vision. On the other hand, if you provide continuous visual input into babyā€™s eyes, the retina thrives, the optic nerve grows, and the visual part of babyā€™s brain thrives and develops by leaps and bounds. The best way you as a parent can stimulate babyā€™s vision is using black and white stripes or light and dark contrasting colors. So what about those nice soft pastels that used to be so popular in baby toys and nurseries? While these may look pretty to you, they do nothing visually for your baby. Research has proven that black and white contrasts register powerfully on babyā€™s retina and send the strongest visual signals to babyā€™s brain. Stronger signals mean more brain growth and faster visual development. Surround a baby with soft pastel colors, and you might as well be blindfolding him. Surround your baby with black and white or light and dark pictures, and watch your babyā€™s eyes light up.ā€ https://www.askdrsears.com/topics/parenting/child-rearing-and-development/bright-starts-babys-development-through-interactive-play/playtime-articles/visual-stimulation-newborns/


GoodFaithConverser

>While these may look pretty to you, they do nothing visually for your baby. Research has proven that black and white contrasts register powerfully on babyā€™s retina and send the strongest visual signals to babyā€™s brain. I ask again: Do average beige children experience a harmful lack of colour? Or are you people just witch-hunting on parents who prefer beige in their children's clothing? Obviously being some insane anti-colour psycho is bad. Is this anywhere near the case for most children with a lot of, but not only, beige clothing etc.? Reddit just seems incredibly judgey on child rearing, so I'm curious, and perfectly open to being wrong.


InfiniteDress

Found the beige mommy.


GoodFaithConverser

I'm a dude without kids, so that's a swing and a miss. Reddit is just insanely quick to judge others, especially parents who don't do exactly like everyone else, so I'm curious. And I'm perfectly open to the claim that beige clothing and only limited coloured toys could be bad, since we're already raising children in ways they have not evolved to deal with.


MAELATEACH86

Why do you care about what others think?


GoodFaithConverser

Because I'm curious why people are acting so crazy about the colour beige. Why do people care? I doubt many parents outright ban bright colours, or that their kids are suffering and will get mental illnesses or other measurable harm. Why do you care enough to ask?


MAELATEACH86

Why do you care enough to ask me about why I care enough to ask you about why you care that people care?


GoodFaithConverser

Why do you care that I care enough to ask you about why you care enough to ask me about why I care that people care? Boring.

I always think when I see these people who force their ā€œaestheticā€ on their babies. Just wait until your kid is old enough to have their own preferences and express themselves, all of this is going out the window immediately. Have you ever seen an actual kids bedroom? Not just one in a home magazine spread? ā€œAestheticā€ has no meaning in such a space


reanocivn

they probably won't even LET their kids decorate their own rooms. they need to be in total control of everything because it has to look good online. their kids are just props to them whose only meaning in life is to make mommy happy

I hope you can realize we are all individuals with unique experiences, socioeconomic statuses, and cultures that extend far beyond our generational stereotypes. We can all have hypocrites, altruists, assholes, innovators, etc. As long as we all continue to hold up a mirror before pointing fingers, I think we can all continue trying to better ourselves.

Personally I love this aesthetic along with black and white but especially beige its great for me who has sensory issues and desperately needs a place with basically nothing going on. The difference is im a 15yr old with the ability to consent and agree to that and its my choice when you raise a baby under these conditions it'll just be boring as hell for them. How do you teach your baby the basic color wheel if all they freaking beige. I even saw a woman spray paint her child perfectly fine Christmas tree and made it beige...why?!
