jaguars4ever Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 http://wkrg.com/news/article/teen_gives_bi..._bathroom/8567/ A baby was born in a Washington State McDonald's restroom and the mother says she didn't know she was pregnant. Most mothers have months to prepare for a child, but Danille Miller had just minutes. Miller was working the nightshift at the McDonald's in Vancouver, Washington on Friday, December 21st when she suddenly ran into the restroom feeling ill. Her co-worker, Jaynae Herrera ran in after her. Herrera asked if Miller was okay but something was definitely not normal. Miller was in pain and shaking. And to her shock, she was giving birth to a baby, right over the toilet. Jaynae called 9-1-1 and with the assistance of a dispatcher, helped deliver the baby. One of the first things the dispatcher said to do when the baby was delivered was to get the baby out of the toilet. Miller had a six-pound baby boy and named him Austin. Both mom and baby are doing fine and now have an interesting story to tell. Video: http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/us/2007/1...baby.birth.koin -- Yes - not just in the restroom, but actually in the toilet bowl. O_o; While I'm pleased that the baby was okay, I still think it's a ****ty way to be born (no pun intended). I could make a reference pertaining to the exigencies of safeguarding one's Fillet-O-Fish prior to handling another's McNuggets, but it would probably be in the best interests of everyone if I refrain. Happy New Year (and Birthday!) McToilet Kid - Ronald McDonald ain't got nothin' over you now.
Humodour Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 I hope that kid brings about the downfall of McDonald's.
Atreides Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 I hope the lady will go on to be a good mom and have happy times ^____^ Sincere here yo. Spreading beauty with my katana.
Xard Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 What the hell. What kind of stupid, irresponsible human being doesn't notice she is pregnant for that long time. Ugh, I'm actually worried about kid. How can it be a no ob build. It has PROVEN effective. I dare you to show your builds and I will tear you apart in an arugment about how these builds will won them. - OverPowered Godzilla (OPG)
Sand Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 I am with Xard on that one. I do hope the mother and kid have a happy life but still. How the hell can a woman not know she is pregnant? They have one of those periodical things that if they don't happen it is a good indicator something is up.

Humodour Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 I'm thinking more of how her parents would have reacted. "You're pregnant?!" "Not anymore. You're grandparents." "What? What's it's name?" "Um."

SteveThaiBinh Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 It's hardly an urban legend, since there are names, dates and a photograph. But you're right, it does seem to happen from time to time - and we must assume that not everyone chooses to go to the media. I don't find it particularly implausible either - if you're a teenage girl and your whose weight fluctuates (and that applies to many), I think it would be easy to persuade yourself that that's all it was.

How is that even possible? well if lacking nutrition the body will actually stop mensturating in order to conserve nutrition. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition!

WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 People who work in fast food shouldn't be allowed to have children. Even as a joke, this is still ridiculously harsh.

Tigranes Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 People who work in fast food shouldn't be allowed to have children. People more intelligent than I have worked in fast food, does that mean I can't have children? :'( I still don't get how you can not notice pregnancy at all for nine months. I mean, isn't the weight change at least quite severe? How can it be confused with regular weight gain?

I shouldn't have kids? por QUEEEEEEEEEEEEE!????? actually currently i shouldn't as I wouldn't be able to handle the economic burden but hey. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition!

Sand Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 People more intelligent than I have worked in fast food, does that mean I can't have children? :'( I still don't get how you can not notice pregnancy at all for nine months. I mean, isn't the weight change at least quite severe? How can it be confused with regular weight gain? It depends on the weight of the child and if the mother takes proper steps, nutrition wise, during the pregnancy. The child, himself, only weighed 6 pounds, so the total weight gain was probably 10 pounds if the woman didn't do any special dieting which is obvious since she didn't know she was pregnant.

theslug Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 (edited) Education is a part of it but from a monetary view point she most likely can't even fully support herself, how will she afford a child? Besides going on welfare, which is a complete cop out of responsibility not to mention a drain on society. The only thing useful poverty breeds is adversity which sadly is often never utilized. Then again taking into consideration she was working night shift it might be a safe assumption that she has two jobs but even so it's most likely just another low paying unskilled job, which even combined with her McDonald's income is quite meager. And with that comes another problem, she would have virtually no time to care for her child. Child care is expensive, there goes any hope she has of raising a child without the support of the state. From this and many other anecdotal stories we can conclude that the vast majority of people are doomed to certain retardedness because they are unable to conceive any sense of the future or the consequences of their actions. This kid is statistically doomed to most likely neglect schooling, work a dead end job, and have unprotected sex that will restart the circle all over again.

Sand Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 That is a very narrow and cynical view, Slugman. Here I thought I was bad, but wow.
