What if men could get pregnant and go in labor like women?
What if men could get pregnant and go in labor like women? I know it is such an old and for some people, irrelevant topic, but unlike the movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito (Junior), no one has ever got into real detail of what might happen. I won't get into "graphic details", but how do you think it will affect society as a whole? Would some men actually stop to think that once they get pregnant, the things around them will really change? For example, in today's world, we have some single mothers that are has to raise their children by themselves the best way they know how, because the father of those children has not taken responsibility for what they created. Imagine if one day after the one-night stand after leaving out of a nightclub with a woman, three months later, they have to go in the bathroom to vomit and urinated on a stick called a pregnancy test. Then, once they find out that they are truely pregnant, they have to call their family members or for many men, they may not call their family members at all and keep it a secret. If the partner that they were with wasn't a really caring person, then you know what that means? It means that when the man calls the woman on the phone and tell her the news, she might deny the baby being hers and hang up in his face. The next thing you know, depression might set in, not necessarily sometimes because the woman has deny your baby, but because all of these questions are going to go through his mind. He might ask, if he didn't tell his family yet, what would his family think about him? Who could he turn to if he needed help? Six months later, he is rushed to the hospital because his water broke. He is sitting the hospital bed with a extreme pain around his stomach and back area, and then finally the baby is ready to be born. It is now time to push!

What if we found out that babies are the real geniuses?
What if we found out that babies are the real geniuses? From Einstein to the little boy on the TV series "X-Files", geniuses has always fascinated people. What if we had a genius traity while we were babies all along? When I was babysitting my 2 year old niece, she started saying words I have never heard her say before. For example, I asked her when was her birthday. The first time she said, "Today is my birthday." Then she paused for a moment and she said, "Oh, Tiny I forgot that my birthday is August 8th." I was so shocked because not only was she right, her parents nor I knew that she knew her own birthday. Not only did she say that, she started a conversation with me and she sounded like a 10 years old. I knew exactly what she was saying, and now she starting to learn her colors. I wonder if by the time she gets older as with all babies, her curosity and wit will die out. It seems as with each generation of babies, they become smarter and smarter. I believe that is one of the reasons why I want to be a pediatrician, because children fascinate me with their actions, and it would be my job to prevent these children from having all types of illnesses that could result in death. If babies were born with some kind of genius trait and then it fades when they get older, then we need to do more research on that particular trait. Then the children with learning disabilities may be able to benefit from the trait somehow to preserve it so they would not have the learning disability in the first place, and scientists can find many breakthoughs in science, in general. Another option is that if the child is not born with athe genius trait after all, then at least they would be able to find some type of pattern to the trait.
