Some parenting moments call for innovation, and one father’s hilarious tech analogy for explaining childbirth is winning the internet.
It all started with a simple question from his young son:
“Daddy, how was I born?”
Instead of the traditional talk, this dad opted for a modern twist:
“Okay, buddy, here’s the deal. Your mom and I first connected in a Yahoo chat room. After some back-and-forth emails, we met at a cyber cafe. Things escalated when we found a quiet space to… let’s say… google each other’s systems.”
As the boy tried to process this, his dad continued:
“Your mom approved a download from my hard drive. But we made one critical error—no firewall! By the time we realized our mistake, the transfer was already in progress.”
Then came the perfect finale:
“After a nine-month loading period, we got our very own pop-up message: ‘You’ve Got Male!’ And that’s how you came to be, my little software update.”
This might just be the most original—and entertaining—way to tackle one of parenting’s trickiest conversations.
