An old country doctor went way out to the boondocks to deliver a baby.
It was so far out, there was no electricity. When the doctor arrived, no
one was home except for the laboring mother and her 5-year-old child.
The doctor instructed the child to hold a lantern high so he could see,
while he helped the woman deliver the baby.

The child did so, the mother pushed and after a little while, the
doctor lifted the newborn baby by the feet and spanked him on the bottom to
get him to take his first breath. The doctor then asked the 5-year-old what
he thought of the baby.

"Hit him again," the 5-year-old said. "He shouldn't have crawled up
there in the first place!"
