If you don't have much of a maternal instinct, crying babies are pretty annoying.
But for the majority of us who don't like kids, we just ignore it or if in charge of said infant, try to settle them rather than murder them.

What the hell, I need to sit next to some rando and not at a free table because you feel special for having kids and might want to site there?
Peak main character syndrome.
Absolutely.. someone at work was like, grab a coffee, see you in 5. Dude, it takes at least 15 minutes to make a coffee in this house.
So you adopt children in care? Or at least financially support them?
You have described my house.
The walls are made of patches after the nightmare install.
My bad, I made an assumption based on the earlier stance in the thread of this woman getting the death penalty.
It's not this specific case that suggests why killing prisoners is wrong, but others where it's not so cut and dry..
A man was recently pardoned after years in prison for a crime he did not commit - he was on a whole life sentence.
If killing someone for their crimes becomes legal, this man may have been killed for a crime he didn't commit and would never have seen a free day again.
By maintaing the system currently in place where we don't kill prisoners, there is the opportunities for miscarriages of justice to be somewhat rectified.
Can't bring a man back from the dead, but we can give him a million pounds for the false imprisonment and his freedom for the rest of his days.
I've got a £1000 espresso machine and that the cheap one. We also have all the pour over shite - scales, grinder, gooseneck kettle, Hario... It adds up quickly.
I live in the UK and was astounded at the sugar consumption when I visited the US.
The most interesting one was bread - it was so sweet, almost like cake, while our bread is just plan savoury bread.
There seems to be an OTT approach to added sweetness that I thought was bad in the UK but is next level in north America.
Another key difference was the milk in coffee shops. I went into Double cup and found some half and half (semi skimmed milk?) and dumped a bunch of it in my coffee. Nope literally half cream half milk. Blllerchhhh.
That just doesn't even exist over here.
Drinking coke - sugar free or otherwise - right after you brush your teeth will still fuck up your teeth.
It's rammed full of acid.
Yeah, one of my landlords was a gem.
Kept the rent low, let us have pets, did the maintenance quickly and in person (he was a tradesman), let us do whatever to the place as long as we didn't ruin it, and was genuinely a decent guy. He gave us glowing references for our future home too.
I felt sad moving out of that home, it was an absolute steal in the middle of a very expensive city. The guy just wanted to rent out his old place to some nice folks.
This person did seem to pull the "woe is me" threads in her text messages to other colleagues, apparently seeking out sympathy.
Also, if they've got nothing but sick kids, then a death or near death is the next step up to garner sympathy because the status quo is sick kids.
This may be a good guess to why she might have done it.
