To the people who aren’t yet familiar with my The Book of Questions feature: This is a short and simple thing I do to keep the blogging flow flowing. I take a question from The Book of Questions by Gregory Stock, Ph.D., post my response, and ask for your response.
To the people who are familiar with this feature: Sorry for repeating that above part so many times.
QUESTION 6:
You discover your wonderful one-year-old child is, because of a mixup at the hospital, not yours. Would you want to exchange the child to try to correct the mistake?
MY RESPONSE:
Honestly, I don’t know. After a year, I’ve probably grown to love the child deeply. I would definitely want to find MY baby though. Exchange it? I’m not sure. This is a difficult question.
Isn’t there some television show called Switched at Birth? I think both sets of parents manage to raise both children together, but that’s after the kids are teenagers, I believe.
When I asked my mother this question, she said, “I would keep both.” I think she was serious.
Anyway, it’s time for me to hear YOUR RESPONSE or questions/comments on my response (though mine wasn’t really answering the question).
See you next time!
