Mom names kid Abcde, gets upset people laugh at that.

At some point these "adults" need to realize what sort of life they're giving their kids when they do "cute" and "quirky" crap like this.

I have no qualifications to speak about this subject, but IMO a lot of parents tend to (somewhat justifiably) think their kid is special which in turn makes them special. They then try to take this to new heights in order to make their kid seem more special, but they just end up screwing the kid over.

Everyone is special. That's why everyone gets trophies now.

Has anyone mentioned Idiocracy yet?

Now that you have mentioned it, I haven't watch that movie in years.

The name's spelling is rather....odd. I kinda like the pronunciation though. I'm torn.
