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-year-old girl, to hold a flashlight high over her mother so he could see while helping to deliver the baby.
Kathleen did as she was asked very diligently. Heidi pushed and pushed, and after a little while, Connor was born.
The paramedic lifted the newborn by his little feet and gave him a light spank on the bottom. Connor began to cry.
The paramedic then thanked Kathleen for her help and asked the wide-eyed 3-year-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 bottom again!"

儿童应该目睹分娩过程吗?
由于停电,只有一名护理人员赶到了现场。房子里一片漆黑,于是护理人员请三岁的小女孩凯瑟琳为她的妈妈高举着手电筒,以便他在协助分娩时能看清。
凯瑟琳非常认真地照做了。海蒂一次又一次地用力,过了一会儿,康纳出生了。
护理人员提着新生儿的小脚,在他的屁股上轻轻拍打了一下。康纳开始哭了起来。
随后,护理人员感谢了凯瑟琳的帮助,并问这个睁大了眼睛的三岁孩子,对她刚刚目睹的一切有何看法。
凯瑟琳迅速回答道:“他一开始就不该爬到那里去……再打他屁股一下!”
