Ugly Babies
May 29th, 2008In America if a proud parent shows us pictures of the new born, regardless of the truth, we always say the little one is adorable. It would be unthinkable to state otherwise. Not so in Thailand.
You see, in Thailand one must take great care to avoid attracting the evil spirits that would take the new baby away. Consequently everyone always says the baby is ugly. Apparently the bad spirits only favor cute babies.
