Terrible parenting. If you’re going to go to the trouble of yeeting your baby at least do it properly with a baby trebuchet.
Seriously, you could yeet it at least 300m that way, maybe more since they’re less than 90kg.
Missing rung on lower end causes baby to slip out prior to launch half the time. Launch distance is subpar compared to other yeet machines.
I know it was made for Victorian babies but mine is Edwardian. One out of five stars, would not recommend.
Well, the stars are saying this is the right way. And they can’t be wrong.

This is just an old-school rocker / bouncer, no? It looks like it’s meant to “float” the child like a one-sided sea-saw?
I guess if you pulled it all the way down and released, it could slightly yeet the child, but there are absolutely better contraptions if going for distance
Yeah it is, it’s just funny with the caption
Throws out all of the baby, and none of the bathwater. Saves hundreds on water bills!

Woudn’t having a spring under it be more efficient than a weird bent strap? I can’t imagine it would launch the baby too far.
Weird bent strap is called a “leaf spring.”
Ah, thanks for the knowledge! Is it stronger than a twisty spring?
Eh they make em of all varying sizes and strengths, just kind of a “use the right one for the job” situation I think.
Ah yes, you can choose to throw the baby into dad’s arms or out of the window.
Well I meant more like “eject a spent shell casing” or “suspension in your whole ass car,” but yeah lol.
They didn’t have such advanced spring technology back then.
It’s still inferior to the medieval baby trebuchet.
Yeah but the baby trebuchet is how we got all this stork nonsense, we can’t go back to random babies dropping from the clouds.
random babies dropping from clouds is no way to form a government!
Brand new sentence!
