Childbirth

Should children witness childbirth?

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 . .. you should have smacked his butt again!"
