Should this be a Private matter and not made public?


When a 23-year-old Minnesota teacher gave birth this weekend, it wasn't just her husband, mother and midwife who supported her every step of the way.

Thousands of people from across the country and around the world signed in to watch a live Internet broadcast of her more than seven-hour delivery.

if she wants to give birth live on the internet, i don't see why she shouldn't. i wouldn't do it personally, but i wouldn't stop anyone else from doing it.

It is a private matter between the woman giving birth and those who want to watch it.

I can't beleive anyone would really want the world to see them giving birth, but if they don't care, I don't see what is wrong with it..A littel strange, yes, wrong, no.

It's the same process since time began.

What's the big deal? It's not the first time they have shown a birth on the web or tv.

Can't believe I missed it.......

I see nothing wrong with it, people gather around animals to watch them give birth all the time..we are just another animal.

Just an ego-centric exhibitionist doing what they do and has every right to do it.

Porno for some, boring for others....(shrug)

It's her reproductive right.

Wait till the kid gets older and gets to watch him/herself emerge out of his/hers mother's private parts.
