Brainteaser

Attention Glassrattlers:

See if you can solve this brainteaser in less time than it took me (four days).

A boy and his father get into a car accident and are rushed to the hospital. The doctor says, “I can’t operate on this boy – he’s my son.” How is this possible!?! (Answer below)

Answer to the Puzzler (spelled backwards)

That is all.

Actually, that's not the answer I heard. I heard that the doctor was the boy's mother.

its used to show the sterotyping of how people dont associate women with being doctors!

Actually, it goes back farther than that. I remember hearing this on an episode of "All in the Family"
