RE: Do you get mad when people call babies "It"?

No.  But then that's probably due to the fact that I do it myself on occasion: especially when the sex of the child isn't readily apparent.  To me, whether it's based on face-blindness or not, pretty much every child under the age of six months looks the same so I do it to avoid upsetting the mother by saying something wrong-gender-related.  

Having said that, I'm not inclined to use it to describe kids older than that.
