bad_fur_day1: If the baby was eaten by a giant Tarantula it wouldn't have this problem anymore. Solved.
Tarantulas have many eyes. They should be afraid of babies.

bad_fur_day1: Evil monkeys don't do well in sea combat either.
What's that now?!

Me: "I am keeping an eye on you."
Kid: "Then I am keeping your eye."

I'm guessing it has to do with the built in fixation humans have with eyes.

When looking at a face, a Neural Typical human will spend most of their time looking at the eye area. About 80% IIFC. This is a biological hard wired thing, not learnt.

I'm guessing that same piece of locked behaviour also guides the developing arms and hands to focus on the eyes.

A common autistic trait is not having this bit of hard wired behaviour.

This is the least of your worries.

It may be "EYES!" for now - but when they grow up it will be "BRAINS!"
:p

Eyes have a brilliantly different contrast to the rest of the face. White, black, and a myriad of different colors not present on most other people, be they blue, green, hazel, red, etc.

Perhaps more interesting is kids know when you're looking at them, add to the fact that eyes tend to move as a pair which makes them weird, especially when you cross your eyes :P

chadjenofsky: Babies inherently know that eyes are the windows to the soul. Once they claw them out, it'll be easier for them to devour your soul.

LootSeeker: Cats do the same but to breath while their victim sleeps.
Please don't tell me that. We have two cats here who wander into my room on a regular basis ......

CARRiON.FLOWERS: Babies are cannibals. Throw them in the dumpster and be sure to light it on fire, just to be safe.
This. It's the only way to be sure.

bad_fur_day1: I don't think a ship piloted by babies would do very well in a navel battle.
A navel battle? ... Never mind, I don't even want to know.

Because they're full of nutrients they need to grow.

I take it you haven't seen Spaceballs or Aliens. That's what giving birth is like.

They just want to make soup...

One of the first things babies learn to do is recognize faces. The eyes, nose, and mouth are the most visible parts of the face, so they track these parts and become fascinated by them.

That looks yummy. If I were a baby I'd add some fish eyeballs to that soup, though.
