The only child born after RFK’s death was Rory, a girl.
Douglas was 2 in 1968.

Im with the Kennedy guy on this. The hospital doesn’t own that kid. Give their best advice,, and if he ignores it based on better advice, (say from a doctor),, document it in the chart.
Nurses went beyond their role.

Dr. Timothy Haydock: "I witnessed the incident and I can state unequivocally that the nurses were the only aggressors," he said. "To charge Mr. Kennedy with a crime is simply incomprehensible to me." Maybe you should read the whole story instead of becoming hysterical like these nurses did.
Sounds to me like they're going to attempt to sue the deep pockets here.

He isn’t bad for a Kennedy, in that regard.

“By voluntarily entering a hospital- especially in a non-emergency situation, you pretty much agree to the rules of the hospital. “
NO,, you are buying a service. You can refuse to continue their service at any time. The hospital acquires no special superior rights,, and the hold no say over the parents choices about the child. If a parent is presenting a dire physical danger to the child,,, they could physically intervene, the same as ANYONE could. But a father deciding to stroll outside, carrying hs new child, in the company of his family doctor,,ain’t it.

That doctor is also a family friend, and apparently the attending physician.

Just in case anyone was wondering, I checked, and on Jan 7 (the day of this incident) in nearby Chappaqua, NY, the high and low temps were 59/35.

“... It sounds like he might have been drunk. Who takes a newborn out for fresh air? ...”
Really! When my older boy was born I brought in a 7 Oz. Pony bottle of Rolling Rock and let him have a taste. He responded well to it. Babies like beer.

Not the same person I don’t think.

Some hospitals do require the immunizations. Our current pediatrician is opposed to them, so her patients are given a pass. Sometimes the hospital tries to buck the physician. Our pediatrician was told by another parent that she (the other parent) obtained a copy of the hospital bill and that the hospital billed insurance for the hospital administering the immunizations even though they had not given them. Our pediatrician was spittin about that one and urged us to check our bill though it had been a year since our youngest was born. Sounds like you might want to consider getting another pediatrician. At least one with a little common sense. Or at least an MD. Does this one have a bone through his nose and do readings with sheep's entrails?

I am still waiting to hear the explanation for how humanity survived at all pre-hospital policy. Or pre-hospital.
I’m not saying we ‘should’ take a newborn out to play in the snow here but Good God, they aren’t pieces of glass or something that will crack below room temperature.
Being an upstate NY born guy, I assure the naysayers that newborn kids do survive exposure to even sub zero temps just like we do for the moments between hospital and car. Or a simple step out the door. They do not suddenly contract pnuemonia and die. If they did, humanity would not exist today.

If they had a proper maternity unit they’d have hit the lockdown button and nobody would have left.
She needs to sue him personally.

Dr. Timothy Haydock: "I witnessed the incident and I can state unequivocally that the nurses were the only aggressors," he said. "To charge Mr. Kennedy with a crime is simply incomprehensible to me." I read that.
To be honest, the only thing that sounds credible in this story, is the doctor's statement above, and comments from the Mother herself.
The fact is the *Mother*, is also totally supportive of the Doctors statement and the Dad in question.

In prior centuries it was fairly common to have children die of any number of things... Along with quite a few mothers that died in childbirth. I think I'd be slow to just assume that modern medicine is some kind of enemy.
