i remember seeing a gothic mom who's whole house was different shades of mainly black but she still gave her baby an entire playroom full of vibrant colors for enrichment.
Right!
That’s a wwe wrestler and his wife. I love their house!
I'm pretty sure she mentioned that near the end of the video
@ville__what the fuck is wrong with you
i saw that too
What freaks me out the most is that they aren't even putting a protection layer on the spray paint, like your kids going to scratch that off and inhale it. That's not safe at all!
The pookie bear Arven pfp 🤩
aesthetic matters more i guess
Literally this!! It’s so hard to get the crafting community mad but here i am commenting about the importance of sealant

“That is a toy, not a bomb threat. Why does it have to be neutralized?” really got me

CODE R2D2! NEUTRALIZATION PROCESS TEAM IS ABOUT TO LAND FROM THE CHOPPER. EVERYONE EXIT THE SECNE AND TAKE A SHOWER. THE COLOR IS CANCER CAUSING
I have noticed lately that there's not enough colors in the world. Even our cars are falling into this greyscale with an odd red or blue here and there, and even then the reds and blues have a subdued tone. I absolutely cannot wait for 10-20 years from now for the color explosion. I hope it's all neon and rainbow colors.
I've been thinking this so much, old cars came in so many fun colours I hope more colour comes back
fr I want fire engine red as a trend
Spotto is nearly impossible these days, it's actually tragic
I hate the car colors in California EVERY THING IS WHITE! We only get white, black and red! I want blue,green,pink, dark purple, orange! I hate it here, the only color car I could get was white…I hate white but at least it has sparkles ✨ in the paint 😭
I have a vibrant orange car hehe
"organic modern vibe" has me reeling as she literally lathers her child's plastic toys in toxic chemicals
It's giving Lorax
@ville__ You have no videos and only crummy community notes. Actually start posting content before deciding to troll spam a comment section only cuz you're not getting any attention in your pathetic day to day.
@ville__ 30 years old you should go to the nursing home granpa
like, just buy baubles made of wood or straw, please, if the plastic is too colorful D:
“Organic Modern Vibe” is crazy
If they’re truly worried about colors being “overstimulating” which, may be for some kids, they can opt for cute pastels that still provide COLORS AND FUN!!!
RIght, like hire interior design to curate & find the best options for your kids room. Pastel colors are the safest options there
The room itself should be pale, all the toys should be very colourful
Pale colours might not be the best for small children as it's hard to differentiate colours and objects that are pastels. That's one of the reasons why everything is soo bright and bold.
This is a smart compromise.
I swear, when I have babies, their room will have a rainbow M.C. Escher theme. Give their developing eyes some exercise.
I'm real worried about what's gonna happen to these sad beige families when their kids reach about 7-9 and start expressing interest in their own style. Like, are you going to deny your kid the sparkly ballerina shirt or fire truck pajamas for your aEsThEtIc? That's a great way to teach your child that their thoughts and feelings don't matter, and /that/ could have all sorts of terrible consequences.
I have friend growing up with parents like this, she is basically a doormat at this point because eventhough she's an adult, she continue her degree and choose her career because her parents choose them for her. She had zero interest in life and basically just binging on tiktok and neflix all day everyday during her free time. There's barely things we related to because her personality is just anime and movie only
I guarantee you if someone makes a study of kids that come from these families that they will find out that the self-delete rate is likely way higher then from a normal family.
By then the tremendo will be different and you will be surprised to see those same mums turning their noses on beige and moving on to the new trend. Because this is what it is . A trend.
@@verucasalt9182⬆️this⬆️ frank zappa said the same thing about the hippie movement of the 60s. He was pretty much spot on...
@@cookiesncream8490it sounds like her parents are still extremely controlling of her to the point that, if they're picking her degree and career for her, it might be a coercive control abuse situation, and being a "doormat" is her coping mechanism to avoid conflict and possibly a symptom of c-ptsd from still being in the situation, especially if it's been like that for several years. If she has no plans for the future or doesn't see one for herself, that could be a red flag for depression, probably at least in part as a result of her parents denying her the ability to make her own decisions. I recommend talking to her about why her parents are the ones making her choices for her, she might need help.
My sister is sad beige. “Having an all white house makes it look so clean.” Ya… super nice… if you’re cleaning 24/7. It takes a second of “actual life” to ruin all of that.
The irony is that (along with religious/cultural tradition) Christmas Trees were invented precisely to bring color into our lives during white and colorless winters...
omg......that makes so much sense!!
When I was little, I was disappointed when my parents chose to put white lights on the christmas tree.
Ik, right? That’s horrible! Imagine forcing your family to have a happy Christmas with a colourless tree!
Yup! The Christmas or Yule tree was supposed to be the biggest pine or evergreen you could find. Decorate it with color and candles/lights.
All to ward off the depression of winter and celebrate the solstice.
It’s to bring color DANGIT
@Ax-xo4ux it's a representation of the Light of the World, Jesus Christ
i remember seeing a couple who lived exactly like the 1950s, they dressed and acted like a typical 1950s couple. the only room in the house that wasn’t 1950s was their son’s room. they wanted him to have his own choices in terms of style and i love that. you can have aesthetics without forcing them on others and your kids, they’re people not property
The wife has a RUclips channel too where she does a lot of baking vids with vintage recipes and other stuff
That's actually awesome- thats a good example of what parents should do, if.. they have a specific theme-
Its like the goth family. 95% of their house is black and goth, and their youngest, who is a baby, has a room full of colour as their playroom.
my mom has a mid century modern theme in our house but she let me do whatever i wanted for my own room which i think is the best way of doing that
i love this! my ex's mom was overwhelmed easily by color and toys. she converted the office room of their house into a play room. the kids could have all the loud, colorful toys in there and make as big a mess as they wanted, and the rest of the house was spotless. instead of making them fit into her lifestyle, she adjusted and accounted for them and found something that worked for everyone. she had her issues, but i always really respected her for that.
I love how you pointed out the "goth baby's colorexposure room" bc i find it funny how many ppl defend the sad beige moms but came at the "goth babys" parents for lack of color and whatnot...
Especially when most goth parents I’ve met have extremely colourful rooms for their kids.
“🟡🟢🔵🟣🔴 BOO! DID I SCARE HER?”
Edit: thanks all for 121 likes
Yeah, you go scare those sad beige moms 😊
Good job 👏👏👏😊😊😊
As a young mom I find it horrifying that kids are treated like they aren’t people, but accessories by their own parents.
Yah acceptance only goes as far as... It might need a professional helper with an Md License
Right? Kids don't choose their parents. If you're going to bully your kids and force them to always do what you want then maybe you shouldn't have any.
sadly quite normal for narcissists to view their kids as personal belongings
As someone who's still treated like an accessory by my own mom, this felt like a warm hug. Thank you
Americans and a lot of humans but mainly americans treat children like property
I'm a goth mom, everything in my house is black/gray, but my daughter's room looks like a unicorn vomited there. she loves expressing herself with colors and it makes her happy.
thats so adorable
Good for you! 😊also I love your username
There's a wall in my house that is painted rainbow and I love it ‼️
Im a goth (almost) mom but my house is green/botanic vintage 😂🌿
Relatable. I have her room pink, white, AND black and then her toys are all normal.
“Kids are just little goblins, who like to play with trash.” Killed me 😭
True
I play with trash, am I a goblin, or kid?
@@CrapOdemon I was just quoting what they said in the video 😁

"Prudence, Chastity? You may select one wicker implement but no more than that lest the devil overshadow your heart with the sin of covetousness" LMAOO oml
OMG I DIDNT KNOW WHAT FUNKY SAID AT THAT PART AT ALL, THANK YOU!!!
"You can't blame us!"
But we can. Your child is not a ball of clay that you can forcibly mold into your liking.
fr fym "you cant blame us" you are depriving a whole as person of stimulation and color, fuck you
Sadly, that’s been the societal belief since forever. Children are not human beings. They are property and an extension of the parent. Children are to be seen, but not heard. It’s so disgusting and is the leading cause to childrens mental health problems and behavior throughout their life.
@@antisocialal4799 I have never seen anything more true on the matter.
Spot-on description, considering clay is also beige.
I think they'd prefer the ball of clay. At least it's beige.
"Organic modern vibe" she says about a plastic ornament spraypainted with aerosol acrylic... Do words just not have meanings anymore?
No. No, they don't.
Imagine bying organic wooden toys when you could just buy toxic plastic and paint it with beige toxic paint ♥
Lol I just choked on my coffee
Soonest she said.organic I started laughing
Tbh those ornaments looked like grenades
As a teenager who loves maximalism, I feel horrible for those kids. A world without bright colors feels like a pizza without toppings. Some people like no toppings but toppings make a pizza unique.
Pls note that english isnt my first language 🙇🏽♀️
There's actually a sad story from my brothers kindergarten. On the first day of school, a new girl had a seizure after her parents brought her to the colorful classroom. When my brother and I visited her house, its the personification of the word Bland, Boring, and Beige
And I heard her parents blamed the school for being "Tasteless people who lets their beautiful baby see the color red instead of hazelnut brown"
I feel the same way you do
You did pretty good, kid
Update on the new girl situation. I was a bit absent because I try not to get involved in my brothers kindergarten. I just found this out on the first day of school, the parents tried to SUE the school.
They failed obviously, but the girl didnt go to school there anymore and they were trying to homeschool the poor girl. Homeschooling is legal in my country but by how the parents act , I doubt they care about how they were gonna homeschool her.
@@M3ZZ0R3LL4 you speak better english than native English speakers, man
the thing that makes me so annoyed abt the tree is that u can still make it match your aesthetic by just using like pastel colors or something but she quite literally only chose browns/nuetrals like it is so bonkers
Gotta love the first mom continuously calling the tree "my tree" - it's clear who the tree's really for
I was thinking that too
Pretty sure 'my tree' is the name of the actual tree. Correction, it is the name, they're called 'Step2 My First Christmas Tree' or simply 'Step2 My Tree' for short which is what the mother calls it. It's not good either way but at least she's not claiming it's for her (even though it is)
@@bendingdemon6483 to be fair you don't know if she was calling it by the name or actually saying it was her tree lol either way, it's pretty evident it's for her
The children that only exist as a vessel for content…
@@bendingdemon6483In that case she would have said ‘THE My Tree’, which she did NOT.
It's the "our children's toys don't look like an eyesore" for me. If your child's needs are an imposition on your life you're not willing to accept, you shouldn't have children.
literally why does their "aesthetic" come before their own child's needs and wants?? it is so selfish of the parents to do this shit
no one asked@ville__
Yeah, tbh I think FF went super easy on these people. A little too easy, really. Notice that I called them people and not parents.
@ville__ I’ve literally seen you do this shit on multiple channels Lmaoo. Plugging your own channel in other people’s RUclips comments, low af.
true
I remember an old Disney show about 4 dudes who had to use imagination or their brains to solve problems. It was easy to see the lesson/point of the show was to encourage kids to think creatively and problem solve. The antagonist of the show was a dude who wore all beige and wanted the world to be beige and boring.
Oh yeah, the Imagination Movers! I watched Athena P's video on it.
Knit Knots wasn't actually a villain, they struggled to understand him but did their best to help him when needed. He was removed after season one.
YES I REMEMBER THAT SHOW! :D
You can both be a beige mom and still have colors for your child. My parents when I was small had a simple rule. Your room is yours. You can decorate it freely. Toys can remain out.. But. Outside of your room, is our stuff. Simple Separation. I got my room, the rest of the house is theirs. They werent sad beige parents, but they did have their style. It's not hard to draw clear lines and have everyone win
Children are not an aesthetic. Let your kids be who they want without you forcing them to like certain things. This is the new cycle of generational trauma.
They just have kids to take “big happy family” photos for their social medias. They don’t actually view their kids as people
Exactly! How do parents not see that.
@@NearsightedNarhwalYup.
Watch as these kids grow up and bring back the styles from the 80's in a big way.
Big hair, big shoulder pads, big pink tiger striped sunglasses. It will be glorious 🤩
social media is taking over people's brains so much that they think life must always be a photo op
The saddest thing is that this trend was supposedly started to get away from plastic toys and more towards natural woods, cotton, wool, etc. Just spray painting a plastic toy in neutral colors (without sanding or a sealant mind you) negates everything the movement towards natural toys was going for.
WOW someone misunderstood the assignment! I didn’t know this.
Just another example of social media influencers taking an idea and twisting it WAY out of porportion
Spray painting the plastic toy with no sealant or sanding isn't even neutral, it makes it WORSE
Keeping this in mind for when I have kids ✍️ I never considered wood and cotton toys
@Akalim they're great and don't have to be expensive! Growing up my grandparents had this set of blocks from when my dad was a kid, and they were originally made out of lumber scraps (aka free/repurposed).
First Lady says "neutralize the tree" and all I could think of was getting the seal team 6 to take it out back lol.

"Beige is not a color. It's a distressed state of mind"
Said by an architect friend of mine that had to design an entirely beige house almost 30 years ago. She would probably have a breakdown from this trend.
Even in Saudi Arabia there are plants with Color
Beige is absolutely a colour, it is the colour of chain smoking cigarettes working at 1980s computers.
@ville__ so sad to see another kid that tries to plug into big youtube channels and say: "oH mY cOnTeNt iS sO mUcH bEtTeR" when in reality the only video they posted is stepping on a pride flag with less than 1K views

The sad beige moms saying stuff like "their bright and colorful toys are an eyesore" sooo... You didn't want kids? You wanted a decoration that won't talk back?
Can't wait for their kid to get older and be obsessed with like fluorescent orange or hot pink or electric blue or something like that 😅
@@XxMCRroxnonstopxXelectric blue sounds cool
@@qiqiland443 it's a great hair colour 🤣
I mean, to some autistic people like me bright colors can be overstimulating so... yeah. Not all kids are a monolith.
(Jesus, You guys REALLY shouldn't have kids if you are all mad that some kids don't like bright things and others do, because guess what? Sad beige moms were once children too. 😂 I mentioned that I was a goth kid that got glaring headaches from too bright, and my very existence y'all are in tears about it.)
like at that point just get a cat or something
I don’t think anyone has mentioned this so I will, imagine being one of these moms kids and you have a brightly colored plushie that you love with all your heart and she just either bleaches and dyes it or throws it away.
Can you imagine the sensory overload in a toddler when you walk into a basic grocery store after being stuck in a colorless void at home? Home would seem so dark and cold and they will probably have horriblely overloaded adulthoods
There's literally episodes of 1980s cartoons like "Rainbow Brite" and "Care Bears" that have villains stealing color and making everyone miserable. Then those villains got social media accounts, had little Jaxxtyns and McKensleighs, and are continuing to use their powers for evil.
I love the way you worded this
@@MockImagesReal Thank you.
It’s the entire premise of Rainbow Brite!
Not the McKensleigh 😭
not 80s but you reminded me of that powerpuff girls ep with the clown spreading black and white, powerpuff girls saving the day with their music spreading colorful joy🥲
As a child visual development specialist - a lack of colors will LITERALLY diminish a Childs visual system especially primary colors
As a graphic designer, we get taught this exact thing when it comes to designing spaces and interfaces for kids. Kids crave colour!
Please put out content to educate these moms. I'm getting my doctorate in clinical psych and I'm scared for my future patients 😅
Like a Kid cant Tell the Sky IS blue If you never Tell them, they plain do Not See that . . .
Also children craved color!!!
I am pretty minimalist when IT comes to colors, especially when IT comes to clothes in me, bright and high contrast plain unsettles me, even If I find it pretty for the Moment . . . .v.but even I Look Like a fountain of color next to that and I Recall having been drawn to brightet colors AS a child . . . .there IS Just so much Joy in colors, even now I get euphoria when I find the exact right shade of teal . . . .allow Kids color! Development of mental capacity, comfort, development of personality and preferences . . . .
Those ornaments had shapes on them (also good for mental development) before being painted over
It's actually insane how much damage you can do to a kid by just... Not providing something basic. Like everyone knows that ailments like pneumonia, hypothermia, or malnutrition in infants can cause lifelong health issues. But we don't really talk about the other stuff.
Don't talk to your baby? Congratulations, they have an underdeveloped language center and will struggle with verbal communication for the rest of their lives!
Don't expose your baby to bright colors? Hope you weren't counting on them being an artist! Or enjoying art!
Don't play with your baby? Welp they're gonna struggle to develop general social skills, but how important are those, really?
It's one of the things that puts me off having kids, tbh. I work in elementary special education; I've seen the kind of damage neglect in the early stages of development can do, and it isn't pretty. Those kids suffer, and they didn't even do anything wrong. And even if the parents are doing their best now... I mean, it's a bit of a too little, too late kind of situation. Those critical development stages are gone or almost gone by the time we get them, and we don't know how to "turn them on" again yet. So yeah. Talk to your babies. They may not understand you now, but if you don't, they might never understand you at all.
"Neutralize" refers to replacing colours with neutrals. Neutrals, as I've been taught, are: black, gray, white, B R O W N .
1:24 THEYRE HER FAVORITE BECAUSE ITS THE ONLY THING HER MOM GIVES HER
"Like, you can't blame us."
No madame, I do blame you.
YOUR CHILD IS NOT YOU.
Just because you can't stand to see more than two colors at a time doesn't mean your child can't either.
Exactly. They're so selfish, they just don't want to be blamed for anything
Literally when the kids in kindergarten they are going to be slower with learning the colors of the rainbow because most of their life have been only grey,beige,white,or whatever other sad colors they have
I really think you shouldn’t have a child if you cant separate personal aesthetics from your child’s sense of self. God forbid the kid ever has an opinion when they get older
tbf. the majority of parents shouldn't have kids imo. Only a small number of parents are actually able and willing to put their children's needs and wants above their own
@@alexs.5871THANK U this is what i’ve been saying and people think i’m crazy!!!! most people aren’t qualified to be parents and i hate that we’re taught to belief that having kids is an important milestone in everyone’s life. it’s not something everybody should do!!!!!!!!
It’s very much millennials repeating their boomer parents saying “this is MY house, you can decorate how you like when you move out!” without even realizing it.
For real, imagine the bitch fit if one of these kids wanted to dye their hair pink or something
If you're losing faith, I saw a mom on tiktok that had a very pink and vibrant interior, and is allowing her son to choose his own colors, clothes, whatever. I forgot her handle :) The son loves it tho! He's like, idk, 6 from what i remember?
"My favorite color is blue"
"No honey only one color exists"

5:54 that is a liminal space, there can't be a way for this to be an actual party.
Imagine growing up and your parents take all your Pokemon toys and bleach/spraypaint them white and brown. Kid me would cry if handed Caucasian Pikachu.

CAUCASIAN PIKACHU CRACKED ME TF UP
Which Caucasian Country?
Not the Caucachu
Not picashew🥜
The problem with the "babies don't care" argument is that, at some point they DO start caring. And what is the plan then?
Throw out the art your kids make that doesn't match your aesthetic?
Spray paint the toys they picked out themselves?
Force them to wear clothes they don't like?
Like how is this going to be different from our parents that forced us to do shit we didn't want to while pretending we didn't have our own feelings?
I totally agree. I get it if you decide to leave the walls white because you don't know what your kid will like in the future. My parents did this, too, with the room I had to share with my brother until I was 8. But in that case, you have to at least let them have other colourful stuff that's easier to change if they don't like it anymore. What's absolutely not ok is parents who objectify their own kids and don't let them have their own room. The rule should always be that kids can make their room look the way they like it and can do it in it what they like (within reason of course) because it's their room. And if they are 8 and they get a new room or you're simply renovating their room, why not let them pick some colours when you're going to repaint the room anyway? You don't have to allow everything if you think it's something they will complain about in a year, but maybe give them a few options you think they might still like in 10 years so that they aren't completely unhappy with it.
@@schrodingerskatze4308
This is so bourgeoisie
@@sunnyday4055 Why?
As someone who works professionally with infants, toddlers, and 2-4 year olds, I can tell you that they certainly do care long before people realize. It’s true that their eyes aren’t as good during the first few months but yes, they like colors.
Not only that, but colorful objects and clothing provide opportunities for education that can be retained before a child is even verbal. I sing to children about the individual colors of their clothes and shoes. I have a 13 month old student who already holds out her shoe to me when I come into the room. It’s good to show them colors and tell them what those colors are. They’ll retain that knowledge and it’s helpful for their mental development.
You’re missing out on an opportunity for growth and bonding when everything they wear and own is beige. It makes me sad.
They view their kids as decoration for the internet
My room is the complete opposite, my walls are pink and green.
Wanda and Cosmo, you ain't slick.
At least they will never know if their kids are colorblind
Frr
Can confirm as someone in development psychology right now, the beige and non stimulating colors are really extremely harmful to children’s development. If things don’t catch their interest, they have no reason to learn to hold their head up, look around or learn to walk and crawl. This is so selfish of parents to do just to fit their theme
Funky frog, pls plis pin it
I feel like this is that part of information that should be common knowledge but somehow like most ppl have no idea
@@zouipl6181I really hope they pin this post too, PLS LISTEN FUNKYFROGBAIT!!! People need to realize that our concerns are scientifically backed.
This isn’t fully accurate though- as long as the kids are still being exposed to different environments occasionally they’ll be fine. They see the grocery store, look out the window in the car, things in TV etc. picture a child in a rural city in Iraq in present day- they aren’t exposed to many bright colors expect intermittently, but they grow up fine. Picture children growing up 1000 years ago. Brown and beige and earth tones with bright colors only intermittently isn’t bad for kids development at all, it’s just not what the average person is used to.
So like, manufactured baby depression?
@@hanasanai665this is true to an extent, intermittently though is the key word there I feel, it is far better for a baby/toddler to have more exposure than occasionally seeing outside colors or things on TV, but you are right and I agree to an extent.
Also as an edit: I’m speaking specifically to the parents who cut almost all color out as a choice, like the people displayed in the video, they are actively making the choice to stunt their children’s development.
I hate when these moms use "overstimulation" as an excuse to make everything on their kid's life boring. I'm autistic and as a child, I LOVED rooms and drawings full of colors and life, it made me so happy! I get so sad watching them strip away the joy from the toys and items meant for their babies :(((
Same. For me, bright, bombastic colors give me life, make me feel energized and engaged. My mom prefers natural, more muted colors, so when I go to her house I tend to feel a bit sadder, less energetic.
Plus, the sad beige aesthetic isnt the only way to minimize overstimulation. They could also go for dark or pastel colors, but nah they chose the hospital aesthetic lol
same! i love color!
ABSOLUTELY. Like you know some (not all, but SOME) of them probably treat actual autistic people without a lot of respect.
What they’re missing is colors are good for babies. Babies don’t see well at first, so bright reds and black and white contrast is good for development. Kids are drawn to colors. The key is to not have so much stuff. That’s what causes the overstimulation. A few brightly colored toys that show different functions (electronic and non) are way better than twenty toys in various shades of poo.

Trends like this make me so happy i was raised by an adhd mom and autistic dad who are both eclectic maximalists with lowkey hoarder tendencies.
What scares me about these “sad beige moms” is how saddened their children will grow up being. Imagine your mother throwing away your elementary art project because it doesn’t fit the “aesthetic” and having unused homemade Christmas decorations due to them being too colorful. These poor children
heck i'm 30 and i still get down about an instance in 2nd grade. i loved my teacher and would always draw and paint for her. and looking back, if i were a teacher, i'd love to hold onto my students art to remember them by and display it in my class. but at the end of the year, she handed me a folder with every painting and picture i ever made for her. looking back, she never once displayed any of her students' art. i suppose giving it back to me was better than just tossing it out. but it still made little seven year old me really sad. i still get a little :/ when i think about that vs. what i would have done in her position.
My mom did that when u was in kinder and elementary, she isnt beige or anything she just doesnt like having "trash" lol
God right? Imagine your kid working really hard on an art project, and it DOESNT go on the fridge because its "an eye sore". Horrific....
@@promisemochi After 4 to 5 years you will have more than 100 drawings. If that is your career you just can't keep all of them 😅
@@l.c.7955 maybe. but it was just me and one other girl that would draw and give her art. i had other teachers before and after her that displayed their students art on the walls, sometimes from years prior. they'd make collages out of them and it always looked very cool and was very touching they'd do that
my aunt is the perfect example of what a beige mom SHOULD be: all their furniture is neutral pimteresty things, her clothes are all solid color beige type things, but she doesn’t bring her toddlers into it. cmon. you can make your home aesthetic while still leaving places, toys, blankets, and rooms to your kids.
exactly! i think a good compromise at the very least is to have your kids room be colourful, let it be how children need it
Like someone else said you can decorate your house however you like but leave the kids bedroom colorful.
completely agree. my mom is also like that.. she practically hates any color in the house that’s not white, black, beige, or gray, EXCEPT from my room. i love vibrant colors and always have done, and she lets me express that which is how every parent should be.
Enough with the sad beige moms, we need the happy beige aunts on TikTok!

That is actually so depressingly funny like what? Jesus, imagine erasing color in your kid's life they only draw exclusively in *brown.*
@@theitchdeepinsideyourcranium I do like brown but it's a choice, and I also do woodcarving so I'm familiar with the whole "brown is actually a lot of colors". Would I expect or want that of a child? Hell no
@@Kehy_ThisNameWasAlreadyTakenI also believe you chose that not when you where a toddler. You grew up being surrounded with many choices (colors) and chose the color brown as a way pf showing your individuality. These sad beige moms took away their children‘s choices which is so sad
There's a particular reason why kids toys are this colorful - THEY DEVELOP EYESIGHT. They literally can harm the kid because of✨AESTHETICS✨
As someone who's studying Early Childhood in college, rooms should have a variety of color to help a child develop healthy, both mentally and emotionally. Chidren can be bored in a room with only beige, white, grey, or black. They need to have sensory.
Omfg maybe that's why i was the only person in the family that needed glasses (mine was a sad white mom)

I FOUND A SAD BEIGE MOM IN A WALMART OR SOMETHING AND THEIR DAUGHTER LOOKED SO SAD AND DEPRESSED AND HER MOM WAS WEARING A LIGHT BLUE STRIPED CARDIGAN AND THE DAUGHTHER WAS WEARING BROWN AND BEIGE WITH PIGTAILS HELPHELPHELPHELPGELPHELP
The saddest part was that the "beige toy" trend started with people trying to minimize the harmful chemicals their kids would be exposed to with wood blocks and natural cloth plushies and the influencers only saw the colors that resulted and went "🤤 aesthetic 🤤"
I'm going to try to do that version of it
Yeah, I nanny for a family that researches pretty much every single toy and item they get for their kids to make sure they aren't buying something with harmful chemicals. The result is a playroom that I would definitely call a bit more beige and "aesthetic" than the usual Fisher Price plastic wonderland. But guess what? THE KIDS STILL HAVE COLORFUL TOYS. They still have bright pink and purple and blue stuffed animals and wooden toys with non-toxic paint and organic cotton blankets with patterns of bumblebees and rainbows.
The first mom spray painting the Christmas tree sent me to the fucking moon. Like, you're exposing your kid to toxic chemicals AND giving them a lousy toy. Just infuriating.

Won't forcing your child to be constantly surrounded by neutrals make them desperate for colorful things the moment they have the ability to get it in any way? Kind of like those kids who aren't allowed any candy and then go absolutely nuts for it as soon as someone as school or a friend's house offers it.

I think the biggest underlying issue is for sure that these moms are inadvertently teaching their kids that they always have to be picture Pinterest perfect. It’s going to be damaging to their mental health in the long run.
Oh it really, really will. I got a lot of perfectionism issues from my family, and that was long before social media. It hurts me so much to think about the damage the pinterest aesthetic thing is doing to these poor kids.

I took my kids to an "all white" themed birthday party - I guess I didn't read the instruction manual sent with the invite because I had no clue there was a dress code for kindergarteners. I showed up in my work uniform since we were coming right after my shift, and my kids had normal kid clothes on. The only reason the mom let us in their area was because the birthday girl spotted my daughter, best friends, and cried until mom let us in. But anytime the professional photographer thought my kids or I were in their shot we were yelled at to move. We left after like 45 minutes. It's really hard to explain to a 5 year old we had to leave because we weren't dressed appropriately for a party AT A PARK.
Jesus thats horrible. Not only did you have to leave the party, the poor birthday girl's mother was LITERALLY NOT ALLOWING her daughter to see her best friend OVER COLOUR CHOICE. TO THE POINT WHERE HER DAUGHTER CRIED. That person should not have kids.

That kid deserves better parents
Becoming a parent is a life changing event - forever. There is a life before and after children. And even if they live their own life... they are still your children and not gone. So, treating them like another accessory just ensures the ongoing income of therapists.
I had a developmental neuroscientist as a highschool biology teacher, and across the back of thr classroom were images showing how a child's perception of their environment develops. Children need visual stimulation to explore their environment; if everything looks the same, that kid's not stimulated to learn about the environment beyond the primary caregiver. Which...look I'm not a psychologist, but if you're a controlling parent, being the most centrally important thing to your child probably appeals.
Painting everything “neutral” is some cartoon villain behavior that I personally thought was unrealistic as a child
Like that gray blob episode of fairly odd parents 😂

a few years ago i was helping my nephew learn bc his family is horrible and didnt teach him anything (at 5 still wore diapers and couldnt say a single word fully) so i started doing research ab kids and learning and stuff. i stumbled across montessory learning/teaching. its kinda like minimalist/aesthetic school. HOWEVER it actually has great benefits. because even tho they use wood, even tho its very minimalist, theres still color and creativity. the whole thing ab it is giving them just enough to play but not so much it strips them from an imagination. the part that irritates me is, im seeing montessori items being used by beige moms as just another beige item instead of montessori. LIKE SOME OF THESE THINGS WOULD BE GREAT- IF THEIR ENTIRE HOUSE WASNT THAT. like that spray painted toy christmas tree COULDVE been good if afterwards she gave her kid stickers and other stuff to further decorate it.

Children like bright contrasting colours because they are more perceptive of colours than adults are that's why toy companies make them in so many different colours. These sad beige moms are not only depriving them of a normal childhood, but also hindering their development.
Hiya! Graphic designer here. We get taught that when we design for kids, the entire reason why we should focus on designing bright colourful graphics with lots of contrast, is because it is important for their neurodevelopment. We get taught to basically mix things up a little. Use bright colours but also use contrast between intensities of colour.
Not only is it unpersoning the child into an accessory but it strips the child of necessary visual stimulus
Is that how colourblindness develops?
@@venomousbunny9875 😆🤣😂
Nah, that's a genetic thing. Mothers carry it, males are apparently most susceptible to the gene's effects on their eyes' development, and it tends to skip a generation (so if one of your parents is colourblind but you're not, then your kid might end up colourblind).
@@venomousbunny9875 Highly unlikely.
I like minimalism, but I still have color in my house. I have tan walls with red curtains, I have moroccan style pillows on my white couch. I love color and neutrals can make them pop. Black is also a neutral that works great with bright colors.
But my kids have their own rooms. My son’s room is bright teal. My daughter’s room is two shades of purple. I never bought them a single beige toy.
This trend has to affect children’s growth. Color is important to distinguishing the world. Bright colors attract children.
"U can't blame us" we for sure can and will XD
I was worried my sister-in-law would end up as a sad, beige mom, because she has compulsive tendencies, and can go very minimalist. But instead, she just has her two-year-old trained on how to do cleanup really well. So once everything‘s done, she just goes “cleanup time!“, that little Rugrat just runs around, screaming and laughing as she’s throwing everything into cubbies
That’s so cute! Good on her and your sister!
Sounds like a good mum right there 😊
That’s a much healthier situation for her and the kiddo, and fewer random tripping hazards!
Damn man good parenting
You know everything has a right way of doing it.
Here's my take as a psych major. Infants have bad vision that relies heavily on shapes and color. If everything in their room is colorless, it simply doesn't register. Color is so important for cognitive stimulation and it really worries and angers me that these moms have done zero research into childhood development before popping out a whole ass new person that they view as an obstacle for having what the internet says to be the perfect asthetic house. Hate to see it, and hate that I'll have those kids in my office one day trying to undo the trauma of never being allowed to express an original thought or asthetic for the most pivotal parts of their lives. This will breed a generation that has a panic attack over placing a navy beanbag chair in their college dorm.
Ikr! Most people without kids know more about childhood development than these sad beige moms do and it's so sad. It's giving "I had a baby on accident but I decided to be a mom anyway"
It's possible that the exact opposite will happen. It's said that those tend to crave the exact opposite of what they grew up in. This is why there are periods of min-max interior house design trends over the centuries. Color is unavoidable regardless of how sad these houses are. It's very likely that these kids might grow up to have extremists-level of maximal houses bursting with color.
Heck, to go off on a tangent, worse case scenario, is that this might also make hording more common. Sad-beige moms don't seem to have a lot of, well, anything other than basic furniture in the house. When these kids grow up, it's possible for them to want to cram a lot of stuff in their homes as well.
Then their kids will find all the 'junk' and colors everywhere to be too much, and when their kids grow up, we'll be back at square one. Maybe it'll be sad-dark-blue moms in 40 years, who knows.
@@thegoldenblob69this person made a short on it :)

Fun fact: The reason children’s toys are colorful is because, below a certain age, children have a harder time seeing color, so making toys primary colors help children see them much better.
Really? I thought they only made it colorful because children love colors. That’s pretty cool
Also these are stunting their children’s growth
What's your source?
@@liadeindadani6913 “If you want to make sure your infant enjoys their room as much as you do, it is important to understand how they perceive color. According to the American Optometric Association, babies don’t fully recognize color until they are five months old. In fact, during those first few months, a newborn mainly sees in shades of black, grey and white.
Contrasting colors send the strongest signals to a baby’s brain to help stimulate brain growth and aid in visual development, explains Dr. Sears Wellness Institute. By three months, a baby starts to see color and the addition of brighter, primary colors become important for their development. Between five and eight months, a baby’s color vision is fully developed, making it the perfect time to paint the nursery.”

If my mom did this to me as a kid, I don't know what I would do. My favorite color has been green for the longest time, and I dye my hair green, but idk what I would do if I had to dye my hair brown.
Oh god the off gassing from the paint.
Honestly most crotch goblins see stronger contrasts when younger, so black and white are the best colors along with strong distinct simple patterns for like mobiles and blankets.
Then you can introduce colors later!
Babies eyes are literally still developing, so they can see high contrasts and bright vibrant colors better than varying shades of beige. Children in general also just seem to enjoy the more stimulation from lots of colors. Like there’s a reason why colorful toys are the go to, generally it’s what kids tend to pick for themselves
Sad beige hell
I don't think it's true only for babies, I'm an artist and I sometimes have a hard time between what some of these people think are different colors, we all experience vision differently.
@@bluester7177 That's actually true. For instance, communities that live isolated in snowy places, such as Eskimos, can differentiate shades of white with slight variances. Also, there's a linguistic peculiarity about colors in japonese. If I remember correctly, the same term can be used to refer to either blue or green colors, which implies that people may have different ideas about colors. I heard about that in my linguistics class :)
@@blazer4729 Yeah, colour terms in different languages are so interesting. Some languages only distinguish between light/warm and dark/cool colours, so basically everything that's closer to black than white is called black and everything else white. There's also a hierarchy of colour terms that languages tend to follow, first you have black/white, then red (which also includes other warm colours like orange or yellow), then there's some distinctions happening with blue/green/yellow and basically it gets more and more detailed. So, if a language has a seperate term for blue, it probably has seperate terms for everything before it in the hierarchy, too. Of course, there's variations, and not all languages develop all of those terms. And even within one language there's always disagreement. Like, when is a purple so blue-ish that it stops being purple? Or conversely, when is it so red-ish that it becomes red? When is an orange dark enough that it's no longer orange, but brown? As someone who is both into linguistics and colour theory, I find that fascinating.
you litteraly see more colors when your younger, and these dumbos want to make sure you never see color
heard that story of a mom who stopped the beige asthetic because her child started to draw exclusively in brown colours at daycare and I hope all these parents have a moment like this to realize how they are harming the development of their child
OH MY GOD! that’s terrifying :((((
This is so sad. Any obsession of mom turns into kid’s trauma real fast
Yeah this is the thing that worries me- for very young children their toys are colorful in part to actually teach children what different colors are! Like it’s also why they have shapes and textures, so that kids can stimulate their senses and learn about the world. Their brains are still developing and I really wonder if kids who are only exposed to beige stuff will actually have worse color vision and diminished ability to distinguish colors. Like if they’re under pre-school age then unless they’re going outside a lot they just… won’t see colorful things at all during crucial years of brain development. It’ll be fascinating to see in the future if these kids’ brains end up different due to this. I just feel bad for the kids :(

colors are important not only to children but to us all. there's a psychological torture method called the white room torture where you're devoid of any color in the white room you've been confided in. being in an environment like that can lead to psychotic breakdowns. we NEED colorful stimuli around us.
I read that if we lived on the moon we'd all go crazy because of the grey everywhere.

i wasn't having it when my stepdad made everything greige at the house. i'm an adult and that shit drives me sad
whats even worse about this, is childrens eyes are far more susceptible to colour than adults, our light receptors fade a bit as we get older, which means a toddlers eyes are seeing a mystical wonderland of colour compared to us, and these parents are depriving them of it, its more than deppressing, its cruel.
This must be why I'm always chasing colors!
Exactly. I'm envious of children being able to see colours in ways we can no longer see them. Why take away such a gift?
also, for babies and toddlers, high levels of contrast is genuinely important to their visual and mental development. Babies when they are born can't see much but contrast, that's why baby toys are so bright. Trying to focus on the cool bright things they see is what teaches them to focus their vision and it adds so much needed stimulus to their brain as they are learning to understand their world.
@@universal_stupidity You're absolutely correct - babies under a certain age can only see in black and white (or more like, shades of grey) as the colour receptors haven't yet developed. So yes, contrast is the BIGGEST thing that helps not just their brains development but also their eyes.

11:56 as someone WHO ACTUALLY STUDIED this subject of color stimulation, the color isn't the problem the problem is the harmony. Humans naturally will try to harmony the ambient colors in the best way they can, when making a product, website, movie or clothing the person behind it thought about the color and it's meaning.
Guess what, white is: Emptiness, Neutral, Balance, Calm
Now think about a whole white room, why would it not be as umcomfortable as a whole red room, because white is neutral. The thing is, just because it isn't as umcomfortable, doesn't mean that it is comfortable. So they break the white with beige, but even thought it "helps" the contrast is so little, that it will become overwhelming to just have a bit of color there.
These people just don't want to create a good color harmony in the ambient and prefer to use neutral colors to make it "pretty". Guess what, if you show a house that truly had their ambient colors harmonized, they will say: "OMG it's so pretty!!"
