What age do children stop being adorable?

[blebbleb]

Just wondering really. My son is only 2 and I just find him so adorable. What age do they stop being so cute?

2 is peak cuteness I’m afraid!!

Never I’d say!!! Youngest is 7, eldest 14 and I still go aww just for different reasons, eg he helps one of the younger children with something then nods over at me, or we’re watching a comedy and he looks over so we can both laugh at something (we’ve the same sense of humour!)

There is something adorable to be found in all children.
I work with 8 year olds and my god they are cute sometimes!

I did love the 2 year old stage.

But mine are now 8 and 11 and still have cute moments! They are cuddly and affectionate and funny. They also love watching videos of when they were tiny which is lovely.

They don’t stop being cute, they’re just cute in different ways :)

Mine are 11 and 6... I'd say they are both adorable still.

I guess the squishy cuteness peaks around 3 and lasts til about 6.

Aw my 5yo is still a bundle of cuteness. I teach secondary and often think year 7s can even be quite cute (obviously I would never say that to them!) but it's definitely gone by y8. So I'd say around 12 is when it ends.

Your own children never. Children in general well it depends on the child but it becomes more and more sporadic!

Mine are 21, 8 and 6 and I look back at toddler photos and think, my god they were so incredibly cute and squishy.

8 and 6 year old are still very very sweet, and the 21 year old is beautiful and I’m in awe of her achievements every day but cute.. not so much 😂

Never! My DS is 24 and I could still squeeze his cute cheeks (don't worry, I don't actually do it!)

Unless you are Dot Cotton, your own children will always be adorable you. My 14 yo is entering a phase of being an adorable young man.

Mine's 14 too and is just sooo lovely and adorable. 😍

The fact that he's taller than me, has a deep voice and is a grumpy teenager is totally ignored 😄

Maybe 6? My 8 year old is amazing but the cuteness has stopped, his voice is a bit deeper and he's tall and stockier. My 5 year old is still very cute.. little voice and height etc.

I thought they were at peak cuteness when mine were 2 too. Then peak cuteness became 3, then 4...

If the cuteness fades eventually, slightly, it is more than made up for with how much more interesting they get. I think every year felt better than the last until well into teens (and mental health issues.)

12.5 for both of mine. 2-3 and 8-9 probably peak cute.

2-3 is just the cutest thing EVER and they get slowly less cute from then on, with all cute gone by 12ish. Imo.

I think mums tend to think their own child is adorable even when others don't. 2 year olds cna be adorable, but in a cafe someo e else's 2 year old running around all noisy and mucky is not adorable to everyone else in the way mum thinks it is!

I adore mine but now they're older am well aware that others aren't going to share that!

when they are teens..........awful to find myDD saying stuff to hurt just cos ahe could. i never saw that coming she had been the best baby and child ever.

The minute they get grumpy.

Other people’s kids stop being cute around age 4. MY kids get cuter and more lovely every year, of course.

My DD looked cute even when she was grumpy.

She's 23 and still cute.

Puberty.
They morph from cute to grumpy grunting neanderthols
Then after a few years stewing in their cocoons (festering bedrooms) they reamerge as beautiful adult butterflies

About 4 or 5 when they go to school and learn backchat

My own dd...still adorable.
Other peoples kids...about age 7 when they back chat, never stop talking, are cheeky.
And I'm a childminder 😂

Sorry...my own dd now 18!
