“Thanks to new iPods for the womb, your unborn children can hear your REO Speedwagon playlist.”
Isn’t that a form of child abuse?

The stories of women giving birth without knowing that they were pregnant always crack me up. Discovery Channel (?) has a show devoted to the subject.

It says the husband didn’t know about the pregnancy, but they don’t actually say that his wife didn’t know about it!
Is Jerly Lyngdoh’s mind that of a two-year-old as well? They don’t really make that clear in the linked article. Saying he’s a 26-year-old man ‘trapped’ in a toddler’s body implies that he has the mind of a 26-year-old man. Instead they just make a comment about his teeth.
Why can’t news articles be clear about what is postulated and what is known, instead of being so bloody misleading?!!
