Really? The common trope about babies is "screaming, time-sucking, poop and vomit whirligigs." I guess I went into it eyes open and have never fully understood the people who are taken unawares by the demands of little ones. Turn on the TV and there's a new parent gobsmacked by this screaming wriggling thing, then turn the channel and see some poor sarariman forced to choose between family and career.
