If you read this article and indeed I've read this somewhere else too that babies have evolved to have big eyes and look endearing and cute etc so that the mothers will want to take care of them and not abandon them.
If this is in fact true and inherent in us as humans then are we actually quite shallow that evolution had to make sure we looked after our children!
