Talking to babies is essential to their development. Acting aloof to them denies them the sensory inputs they must have in order to do little things like learn how to talk and how to communicate. You can see it in animals. They become friendlier if you talk to them. Hell, you can see it in adults. Act aloof towards them and they'll return the favor.
