Parenting by Proxy
A friend of mine took a day off work last week to visit his sister in hospital, she's just had a baby. When he came back we conducted the usual pantomime of finding out all these things about newborn babies like weight (in case I ever need to punt it across the hospital courtyard) and whether there were any gory complications.
He admitted to me that he was relieved that she'd had a baby boy as he really hadn't fancied becoming an auntie.
