They may have rescued the baby from it while simultaneously adding to their own obesity issue.

That's what I meant by "taking one for the team." The OP selflessly risked the adverse health effects of the candy just to save the baby. I don't know why everyone is so mad at her, she's laying down her life to spare an innocent baby!

Excuse me, sir, I think I've found your moral compass. Put it on, maybe you'll see the problem then?

I don't think my morals are out of line for not thinking that taking a piece of candy from a baby is deserving of all these comments. It's bad, but it's not like he slaughtered the child.

I know, right?

You kind of seem like an asshole for wishing that children were sick instead of well.

I take it your read baby and thought of a swaddled little 2 month old kiddy, at that age i would be questioning the motives however at 6 months it is perfectly fine as long it is little and not very often and the kid is eating other foods. Take it from a mother who does not have an obese child but does have a child who eats candy sometimes.

I think she meant that now she has bad karma from stealing from a baby
