i seriously think the men should be there for the following reasons; 1.emotional and physcological support of the woman;when the man is there the woman feels more at rest with the one she loves not with a bunch of strangers.thereby enabling her to take the pain easier. 2.the man will see with his eyes what the woman has gone through and respect her for that. 3.it helps in the bonding of the father and child, not only mother and child. 4.it is the greatest honour if the father cuts the childs umbilical cord. 5.it aids faster healing for the wife....... IF ANYONE DOUBTS ME DO YOUR RESEARCH........................... |
