It makes me feel weird about people that barely start a fire, and don't tend to it. Like I'm holding someone else's baby. Then feeding it. Then sending it to school. It's my baby now, but it still has your name. Ugh.

You're the dad who stepped up.

It makes me feel weird about people that barely see babies as property, the name attached is the value not the person who didn't ask to be born and needs help.

(To be clear I'm not saying you do this specifically, it's more a cultural thing where people will see other people as unworthy unless their name is on it)

Look in to my eyes. I am the baby captain now.

No, I mean... Captain of the baby. Not a tiny captain the poops in a diaper.
