This was awesome! You could tell the baby was blown away, almost like she suddenly realized that all that time, her whole life, they were making noise to each other, but she wasn't in on it. Now she is hearing them and thinking so that's how you all were communicating with each other! You've been making funny noises the whole time.

[@jenniferloftus2363]

@@Macaulyn_97 True, but to her it's a lifetime, of course. And it's been a lifetime that others were communicating in ways she didn't understand. Babies are super attuned to what is going on around them and they learn a lot about how humans work from hanging out around other people. To me, it seems as though the aha moment was not just hey I hear something and that is new and surprising, but also she realized everyone else was doing this the whole time. Life is like that, when you suddenly understand your situation is different, and that changes your view of the past at the same time.

[@avidadolares]

Probably the same way you choose to cry and whine over others clicking of a meaningless dislike button. The bigger question is why did you choose to complain about what others do or think instead of saying something positive and actually commenting on the video itself? Yeah.....just a crybaby whining over dislikes...typical youtube comment.

[@russellpayne3390]

@@avidadolaresIt is self evident how wonderful this video is. There is really no need to comment on its beauty. What I find more pressing and more important is the cruelty and meanness of our fellow man. A disregard for what is decent and right. A lack of heart or feelings. The very things that make living a arduous cruel existence. So suck on that!!

[@aleonard5359]

You'd have to be pure evil to dislike this video. A pure demon.

[@segsb7085]

@@russellpayne3390 I think what makes life "an arduous, cruel existence" is your choice to focus on the negative and write people off without any understanding or context beyond your own. There are 20 THOUSAND likes compared to barely 200 dislikes..the dislikes are not even up to 1% of the likes..so what does that say about your outlook on life? Also, are you in people's minds? How do you know what led them to dislike or that some of the dislikes are not in error? Some people may have disliked because they were unhappy the baby had hearing difficulties in the first place, on the other hand there are deaf people who do not agree with modifying hearing...the point is you do not know ANYTHING about the people who disliked but you are so quick to get on your high horse and judge them..even calling them cruel and mean. You need to calm down and approach life in a more appreciative, humble, and less judgemental manner.
