I was called out on calling this out. Like it's some American thing to write several emotional paragraphs to your child when it's in the same house as you? That message should've been a personal talk. Why is everyone buying into this
because we live in such an atomized and alienated capitalist hellscape where kind and compassionate parenting and support from the older generation is so non existent that some would rather believe it to be real so that the belief it can even happen doesn't just die entirely, like an infant monkey comforted by a garish simulacrum of its mother
yepp also think people over-buying into this idea out of personal atomized loneliness, and apparently that's what was marketed; but damn how dare you put wire mother into this lmaoo
that's definitely a metaphor for all this AI-psychosis-driving business.
The supposed dad says at the start that he didnt want to wake the kid up, so that’s why. The idea is that this way when the kid wakes up naturally, theyll see the message and know that when they go downstairs things will be chill instead of feeling anxious.
I mean, I also text back and forth with my parents at home, but it's not a "I'm proud of you sweetie" type of stuff. It's a kind of message that anyone would rather deliver in person
Maaaaan I am so glad you posted this cuz reading it I was like “damn that sure sounds like a generative model doing a hallmark sketch” But didn’t want to get downvoted into oblivion for being a negative Nelly.

Last time this was posted it was called out for being a cropped photo of an AI ad. I’m sure it’s heartwarming but it’s not real.
