In the picture, a delicate baby girl sleeps, with older brothers of varying ages surrounding her, putting on their toughest faces. Adorable, right? Well, it is, until you really ponder it.

I know what you’re thinking. “It’s just a cute photo, do we have to be offended by everything?” No, I’m not clutching my pearls at this photo. I’m not “triggered.” I do get the humour meant by it…I just don’t like it.

I suppose I could be reading into what is considered just a cute photo. It just rubs me the wrong way.

However, the “frequent share” that really does make me see red whenever it comes across my screen is the so-called hilarious dad shirt with the rules for dating his daughter.
