There is a big difference between recoding "I am unable to do this currently because I am tied up with other work, ask me in a few hours" to "Daddy's busy right now sweetie, maybe later?"

and

"Aww whosa sweet wittuh one! My wittle girlie so preshusss!"

I also really dislike this. Making simple noises is the kind of baby talk I can get behind. And then just using fewer words, simple words you want them to learn first. This and talking in higher pitched voices. I'm cool with all that baby talk.

But the latter feels like how parents with "fur babies" (who describe themselves as such) talk to their pets, and drives me up the wall.
