A young mother (Heidi) went into labor. She knew she was in no condition to drive herself to the hospital so she called 911. Due to a power outage, only one paramedic responded to the call. The house was very dark so the paramedic asked Kathleen, a 3-yr old girl to hold a flashlight high over her mommy so he could see while he helped deliver the baby.
Very diligently, Kathleen did as she was asked. Heidi pushed and pushed and after a little while, Connor was born.The paramedic lifted him by his little feet and spanked him on his bottom. Connor began to cry.
The paramedic then thanked Kathleen for her help and asked the wide-eyed 3-yr old what she thought about what she had just witnessed.
Kathleen quickly responded, 'He shouldn't have crawled in there in the first place.....smack his butt again!'

I'm curious, but I'm a curious person by nature. Not sure if I'd like to see it more than once. |

lowsound | Why would you watch your own kids get born? Are you not a man?
Go to the bar and have a drink for your future children while your wife is bearing them, for godssakes, don't watch while it's happening!

| Maybe because it shows that you care about your wife and child?
