Hey come on you guys, men are just as bad and so are boys. My son has a friend who is 13 and he will not shut up. He constantly yacks about anything and everything and nothing is funny or makes sense. It's not just females but also males who can be annoying.

This little baby is so cute and is trying very hard to communicate what she is trying to say. It soundeed important to me, I heard her mention momma in there too. Her parents think she is so cute too, who could hold back a smile, but keep an eye on the babies face when she is trying to say something and she sees her parents laughing and not taking her serious.

Just because she's a baby and cute and dressed in pink doesn't make her less inteligent. As her parents know this!

This girl reminds me so much of my own daughter at a similar age and even until she could begin to talk proper. My daughter was babbling away to an old lady one day, who told me she loves it when kids talk 'scribble' - which summed it up pretty well.

My daughter, like the child in the clip would babble for hours holding everyone's gaze and staring intently into their eyes and 'talk scribble' to them. Now at 11, she still barely seems to stop for a breath but her communication skills are so much more advanced!

I wonder if anyone has bothered to slow the speed down to see if they can understand the girl a little better? She does have a couple understandable words in there... and lay off the starbucks

This video does not play for me. The Play and Replay icons are on top of each other, as is the start and pause button and I can't get it to play. Has anyone else had this problem?? I can play other videos but not this one.

Beautiful, in so many ways. Hopefully no one will scold her for being so verbal. I Hope that verbal need turns into someone who is always inquiring, and does not just look at the surface of things.

While I saw the video of the talking baby girl quite amusing , I noticed what appeared to be her EMASCULATED father in the back seat with her while

the BOSS ( maschline mother ) was probably driving the vehicle. KEEP TALKING. The end of the family as we know it. SAD.

I LOVE this baby!!! She reminds me of my daughter, who at only a couple months old would have "conversations" with me everyday after nursing. It must have given her a brain boost. Wish I had video of that.

Hey. My son did that when he was that age. Just kidding. She is so cute. Loved it.

No, not all, but I think lawyers are.

This is hilarious, it surprises me how people try to over analyze humor. What makes this particularly humorous is that it reminds me of my daughter. I swer to God, she was pissed with me cause I stuck her in her crib. This resulted in her cussing me out. This baby just happened to be a girl. Any parent knows that boys blabber just like this. I recall a baby blabbing at me and I just was not paying attention. He then began bablling "listen to me!!!" in his own way which was just as hilarious as the baby in this video. Laugh people!

Yes, personality is set early. No, let's not take one talkative little baby girl and use her as a (bad) example of how all women talk too much. That's very demeaning to those of us who don't talk that much, and it perpetuates stereotypes. I've got three daughters; none of them blather on like this. Neither do I babble on and on, but the men in my life must think I do. Heck, they talk more to each other than they do to me. I can barely get a word in edgewise.

My 17 mo. old DD loved the video and we had to watch it about a dozen times. :) She just thought it was hilarious and kept asking to see it again.

I am a talker, who also happens to love pink : )

Some people get offended where no offense is meant! You can choose to be offended at anything. I wasn't at all : ) all they are saying is that they believe females tend to develop good communication skills much earlier on. If anything I would have thought a man would be offended by this, as the inference could be, that by comparison they are all blundering oafs (this is not what I believe at all, but then I'm blessed to be married to an excellent communicator) : )

I'm more offended that people are suggesting that girls who are dressed in pink, are so weak minded that they succumb to stereotypes imposed upon them! This may be true in some cases, just as the idea that being a female suggests that you like to participate in incessant chatter! There are lots of females who contradict the theory!!!

About the car seat, a child must be at least a year old AND at least 20 lbs to be face forward. Or at least that is the law in Texas : )

It was funny at first, but then I found it really annoying! I would hate to have one of my children babble on incessantly at that pitch! lol My husband would say it's because she's all dressed in pink; he's convinced that it adversely affects female behavior and knowing the children that I do, I'm coming round to his way of thinking. : )

I find it intolerable in women too! I don't know why anyone thinks it's a show of "strength", or some sort of power when women talk and talk (not unlike the baby) incoherently without a pause for breath, please bear in mind that I'm a talker! If a man doesn't understand the babble, I would suggest that perhaps a woman ought to look at her own skills of communication, not just the man's!

I don't believe the man was mocking his child, neither was the child's mother, they obviously think she is adorable and funny!

I get so sick to death of man bashing!!!

As a mother of 3 toddler girls, I have to say this is just fantastic! As a parent, though, I can see that these parents in the video are NOT laughing AT their daughter (which is what's being posted as what is happening and how the laugther is deeply inapprpriate).

You can't describe the sensation that you get as a parent when you watch your child do something like this. Just watching that little face and mouth, and listening to that voice that you could recognize everywhere, and watching them just doing something you never thought they could do! I have many vidoes just like this, where I am just holding back the laughter--it's a laughter of pure awe and amazement, as you watch a teeny-tiny little person become their own being. I often comment to my husband how this little body, this aboslutely small, yet, perfect body, is their whole person. And inside that person they are thinking, creating, and processing everything they see. I think almost everyday--did I create that little being?? Watching your little child/baby is just the most amazing part of life! I don't even know how to describe it. I think these parents are just having fun and are in awe of what their child is doing. I think ti's very different from "laughing at" or "ignoring a child's attempts to communicate". I think the fact that they are enjoying how she talks to them is a sign that they love it!
