A single-panel comic. A child seen from behind in the foreground looks up at his mother and asks, "Mommy, why am I only allowed to leave the house through the window, but Billy gets to use the door?" The mother, standing beside an open window, gestures sarcastically toward it and replies, "Welll, looky here! Now you wanna come out the easy way! How very lovely!" A caption below reads: "Mom really held a grudge over that c-section." The joke: the mother forces this child to exit through the window rather than the door as petty payback for him having been born via cesarean instead of the "normal" way. Votey: a close-up of the mother's annoyed face with a speech bubble reading "REFLECT ON YOUR CHOICES," doubling down on blaming the baby for the c-section.
