October 30, 2021：アメトーク、双子、子供の命、内密出産 (AmeTalk, Twins, Children’s Lives, Confidential Birth System)
Six comedians having twins gathered on Ame-Talk, a TV variety show by TV Asahi. Their humorous talks enabled me to understand the unique pleasures and pains in raising twins. One of their pleasures is to see twins do the same thing at the same time. For example, it is fun to see twins slip from a slope together, as aired in the show. One of their pains is lack of sleep. Tsuyoshi san and Ishida san, a member of the comedy duo Nakagawake and Non-Style, respectively, could hardly sleep for three years after the birth of their twins.
My experience in raising a child was fun and challenging. And I still appreciate her coming into the world as my daughter.
Meanwhile, so many babies and children are still in danger of losing their lives or experiencing other hardships. Yesterday, a hospital in Kumamoto Prefecture that has introduced a de facto "confidential birth" system allowing isolated pregnant women to give birth anonymously, announced Oct. 29 that it had taken in a woman who wants to give birth without revealing her identity.
I hope that the national or local government will immediately take appropriate measures to save the life.
アメトークに双子の子供を持つ芸人が集合した。双子を育てる苦労がよく分かった。中川家の剛さんやNon Styleの石田さんによると、最初の3年間は子育てで寝られないほど忙しかったらしい。その一方で、双子を育てる楽しさも分かった。双子ちゃんが同時に転ぶ映像を観ると、思わず笑ってしまう。
自身も子育を経験した。大変なこともあったが、子供の成長は楽しみでしかなかった。いまでも、子供の存在に感謝している。
その一方で、いまだに多くの子供が命を失う危険に晒されている。昨日も、熊本県の病院が独自の「内密出産制度」に基づき、「誰にも知られず出産したい」という臨月の女性を保護していることを発表した。この命が救われるよう適切な措置が講じられることを祈るばかりです。
