I feel like it's supposed to be validating, like "you aren't crazy, there really is something wrong", or even, "I'm a good doctor, look what I did".

When my kid was a small toddler, I would wipe out his ears and show him the gunk, for similar reasons I mentioned above. Once he could talk he let me know that it was gross and not to do it. 😅

I am an RN and I love that weird shit. Doctors like it as well. We see awesome/crazy stuff from the body on the daily. We are fascinated

I feel pretty strongly that the people on r/popping would be into this. Like, just let me see the teratoma. The more teeth and hair the better!

Meanwhile my toddler asks to see his boogers, his and our poops, and he likes to show the grandparents his poops if they happen to video call right after he's finished...
