The only time I was asked this question, I refused to answer it. I later saw the doctor's checklist, and she had marked "Yes". Why she needed that on record-especially because it was already established that I DON'T have kids-I can only imagine.
Then change doctors, tell them why and make a report to the Medical association saying they have included knowingly false information in your file.
While at the doctor with my daughter, we got the form asking about guns.I threw the form in the trash. The receptionist noted that I didn't have the form and went to pull another one. I said "I'll throw that one away.too". She looked at me like I had two heads. "Why won't you fill out the form?" "Because its none of your business. We're here for a vaccination".
A few years later, I had my teenage son in for an ingrown toenail. He was old enough to fill in his own forms. He would make funny noises while filling out a form. When the doc came in to remove his toenail, he asked him "What does all this stuff have to do with my toe?" The guy looked at the form, smiled, then slipped it in the trash.
Because to the questioning physician "why is that any of your business?" equals "Yes I do, and I keep them loaded". ""
The last time anyone got in my face about guns and whether I should have them, I told HIM to try coming onto my property after 8 PM without permission or notice and see IF I have guns and IF I would use them. He shut up as the bar full of men were laughing in his face. BTW- the same rules would apply at any time of day or night if I felt threatened.
