Great Expectations

After working just one day in the General Pediatrics clinic, I have already developed an unsettling fear: what if my future children aren't perfect?

What if I have a kid who is dumb?

What if I have a kid who is ugly?

What if I have a kid who is anxious or shy?

What if I have a kid who doesn't enjoy the outdoors?

And worst of all... what if I have a kid who is tone-deaf?

I should just play it safe and instead of having my own kids, adopt only children who are at least eight years of age and can live up to my standards.
