Behold the Klingon crib, the first crib that is intended for solely ages 14 and up. They're part of an art show by Shi Jinsong, who also made a similarly pointy rocking horse, walker and rattle -- check out pics here -- so you can't buy them to kill your own baby, sorry. Besides, no one should ever have to learn how to say "arrested for child endangerment" in Klingon. (Via Geekologie)

Klingon? More like something Charles Manson would give to a toddler.

From that picture I'm getting a Tim Burton movie vibe far more than Klingon post-natal care.

No wonder Klingon's are so pissed so off a majority of the time, they had to spent infancy in those things. Damn

@MattK,
I was thinking the same thing- soon nerds will be able to spend their entire existence immersed in Trek paraphernalia.

People really need to think when making up this "Klingon Culture" shit.
Why would ANYONE make a crib where the infant can be injured by touching the sides? The whole point of a crib is to PROTECT an infant that can't protect itself. If they wanted it to be strong, they just wouldn't put it in a crib in the first place. This deathtrap is more like sticking a blind man in a room with spikes and telling him he's "too weak" when he impales himself.
Honestly, with the way these Klingon enthusiasts represent the culture, Klingons should have gone extinct long before they ever mastered space travel.

Of course, should the Klingon crowd not fall for this campaign ploy, the developers could rebrand it for the Saw crowd.
"Hello, new born infant...I want to play a game...for too long in your 5 days of existance, you've taken your loved ones for granted: crapping in your clothes, crying whenever you want to be fed, without regard to your parents' comfort or time of night. I want to teach you to value the life you have. So I've placed you in a trap I like to call "The Cradle of Life." Should you do anything but lie in it quietly, one of the 1,096 points on this cradle will still your cries...forever. Live or die...make your choice...gitchee-gitchee-goo!"

I have a feeling there isn't such a thing as 'Child Protective Services' on the Klingon homeworld ...

That's because according to Trekkies, the entire Klingon race is the equivalent of rednecks who get wasted and decide to see if they can cut their own arm off with a rusty hacksaw, and somehow this is supposed to be "honorable" and looked up to.
