Blonde child

[Deep Diver]

Somewhere in a village where only one tribe ruled, the chieftain's wife gave birth to a blonde-haired child.

The chieftain quickly figured the voluntary foreign doctor might be to blame. So the chieftain asked him to talk in his tent.

Chieftain: 'Today my wife gave birth to a child with blonde hair. She and I have dark hair. You are blonde. It doesn't take a doctor to figure out that you have been with my wife!'

The doctor remains calm: 'The answer lies in genetics. Some genetics have recessive traits, which are not apparent to the parents but may be passed on to the child. For example, last week one of your sheep gave birth to a sheep with black wool on her head.'

The chieftain pauses for a bit and then replies: 'I tell you what. You don't say a word about the sheep and I don't say a word about the blonde child.'
