I cannot express the extent to which that picture at the top of the article with a baby “working” at a laptop upsets me.

I can see the beginnings of a hand of an adult at the bottom, but there is something so on the nose about such an image that it prompted a visceral response.

On the website there is cropping and it might be displaying differently on different browsers. I was able to recognize it as an adult at the computer holding a baby on their lap. I do not see any intent to show a baby working.


I think it’s amusing. That was probably the expected response.
