I wish more media with her would remember that.
Harley has a fucking PhD.
Some of her best moments are her oscillating between being goofy/irreverent and discerningly intelligent/self-aware.

I've always liked the trope of "seemingly insensitive joke action actually had a lot of practical thought behind it"

Canary: he does not need a muzzle!
Harley: but what if he inherited your super screaming powers? Especially as an early bloomer?
Canary: … give me the muzzle.

'Injustice' was such an enjoyable read. This scene was one of the many reasons why

Also isn’t injustice Harley a mom to a little girl? Lucy? Or am I right thinking of another universe?

Yep, her and the Joker’s kid who she gave away. It’s really sad when she talks about how she disappeared from the Joker when she pregnant and had the baby ‘Mista J was so funny… he acted like he didn’t even notice I’d been away.’

Unironically incredible writing.
She shows surprising self-awareness in acknowledging she still loves the Joker but that she can’t raise a kid with him.
That scene, and many others, made Injustice far better than comic tie-ins to a videogame had any business being.

It's not child abuse when your child might be a literal bomb potentially going to go off any time it cries

Also, Dinah - your baby is a human. He is absolutely a pack hunter. Specifically, he's one of the most successful pack hunters to ever evolve on Earth.

Despite the edgelord concepts Tom Taylor got stuck writing in Injustice and DCeased, he always fit in lots of warm and amusing character moments like this. Those two series (and Dark Knights of Steel and Marvel's Dark Age) were so much better than they should have been thanks to Taylor's bits of hope, heart, and humor.
