You open a gift for your new baby and you are greeted with the "F" word printed on a T-shirt. Its funny, right? Cute? The attending audience all laugh with you. Yeah, maybe it is kind of funny. But, would you let your baby wear it out in public, or let the grandparents see it?
The landscape of T-shirts are littered with accusations of being "offensive". Kids are kicked out of school. Adults are denied access to stores and restaurants for wearing T-shirts with offensive slogans or images. Heck, some companies go out of business for selling T-shirts with offensive and hateful slogans or images on them.
But, babies? They can't control what they wear. Maybe that's what makes sayings on their T-shirts even funnier than what adults wear.
What do you think?
