  > Humans are evolutionarily evolved to listen to babies. It makes even quiet noises annoying. It's funny, once you have kiddos, you learn to be able to tell the type of crying they are doing. Some cries are really for attention that an adult needs to attend to right this second, some are just noise, and then there's everything in between. Once you're around infants enough, you kinda just tune out the less important crying, just like you would a fan or a car engine. But, it is a skill you learn, and can lose. So, parents of young children, I think, really can't see what the big deal is. They're skilled at tuning out the cries that aren't important.
