Is it normal or wrong to hate a kid?

So my childless neighbours went a head and adopted a son about 3yrs old. I just don't know why but this kid just annoys me, with the sounds he makes while playing, he sort of has that evil kind of eye, he looks at me without even blinking. He's nothing like other kids. One time my neighbour asked me to watch him just for a few minutes till the sitter arrives,when she got there this kid just grabbed me tight and refused to let go, he cried and even called me "mommy".. I just don't like the kid but he's just a little baby but I don't know where they got him from. Maybe it's just bad blood but I don't know if It's really normal to dislike a child..It's wierd because I like kids and in few weeks im having my own.. I find babies cute and so adorable but this one.. Nah! IIN?

    Call UFOhunters.. maybe you found an alien. Lmao. Jk.. but yeah, it's normal. I have a son, and before I never really cared for kids much, but I play like a kid myself with him. Sometimes it varies upon child. Some kids are in your favour of being able to endure, and sometimes you have annoying kids who had terrible parents or none at all.

    Of course, it's probably not his/her fault that it was raised that way. Every specimen is influenced by their environment and partental guidance. However, it's completely normal for you to have your own feelings toward them. Best advice is to ignore him till he's old enough to change his behavior, as most children do (give him time to be influenced by his new adopted parents in trying to change that behavior), or just be the bigger man/woman and get over it. (Insensitive to say, and nothing personal, but sometimes it's best to just say fuck it, and focus on bigger issues in life. Been there too, man.)

    Dude that's pretty mean, what has the poor kid done to you? he stares and I get that can be annoying, but you used the word hate, he's just a poor 3 year old kid and hasn't done a thing wrong to you, yeah maybe he's feeling neglected by his parents, it's soooo cute how he grabbed your leg and wouldn't let go, the poor kid probably has a fear of some sort too, poor kid :-(

        Hey when I think of the kid you mentioned, i instantly think of that baby from the simpsons with the one black eyebrow, you know the one that was in it like once? It’s supposed to be Maggie’s arch nemesis.

        I understand that him calling you mommy would freak you out a bit, but yeah that’s nice that you made an effort and to get to like him bro, the whole just sounds really cute and if a kid hugged my leg in such a fashion it wouldn’t surprise me if i got a bit emotional. 😰😰

    He might be autistic. That would explain the staring.

    Do the kid a favour and stay away from him: he sounds needy and has probably been neglected and/or abused in some way.

    You are weird to hate a child anyway: grow up

          Your comment.. Just because it's a kid it doesn't mean they can't be creepy or annoying..

    Well, sorta. I really really disliked my nieces for a while but it's not their fault. They are little kids. They get influence from somewhere, usually parents or whoever they were raised by, if anyone.

    Sounds like neglect may have been a factor with this one.

    But it can be easy to dislike any child but your own. Eventually, people may dislike your kid, and how would you feel about that? Just remember, it's really not the kids fault.

      True, that's exactly my thoughts.. What if someone hates my kid too.. I don't blame this kid at all I just don't like how he stares.. It's like he's up to something but he's just a baby.. Working on ignoring this feeling of dislike..

        Like with my nieces, they can be so conniving and evil at times, but I know where the influence comes from.

        Like I said, and you recognised, it can, and likely will happen to your kid too.

        It's a double edged sword of sorts, m'lady
