    Wow! I'm not sure what bothers me the most about this situation; the physician father taking advantage of his position as owner of the hospital and reducing his patient to laboratory rat status for his teenage boy, the physician mother giving a nod of approval, the mother for subjecting herself and her unborn child to experimental care given by a teenaged boy, or the boy himself for doing something that some part of him should know is wrong, or that all of this was done to get into the Guiness Book of World Records. It had nothing to do with saving lives or even education. Is this boy a prodigy or is it just that his parents think he is? I'm grateful that the Medical Asociation there is taking corrective action.

    It seems like theater of the absurd that the boy's father, a physician, would allow, encourage, and record something like this.

    Well, I guess the authorities are really taking this on the run: Indian police search for teen surgeon - Yahoo! News
    Don't blame them at all.
