The left does not believe that you are a customer in these situations.
Twenty five years ago, a Pediatrician office that I had been using for a couple years separated one son from me while we were escorting younger son into the examining room. I noticed when I looked back for him that the nurse was asking him something. He told me that she asked if there were guns in the house and if they were locked up.
He answered yes and yes.
I called the next day, had my records transferred to our adult Family Practice docs and told them that they had NO right to question my child without my permission.
Their comment: it’s for the child’s safety. I told them I was the arbiter of what was safe for my child, and it didn’t include unapproved questioning of underage children by strangers.
Starve them....take your business away.....talk to other parents - though some of them are so brain dead its hard to believe their children survive.
Similar thing happened in elementary school a couple years later. Teachers & psychologist planned a weekly ‘round table’ discussion with selected kids & teachers. Caveat: children were not allowed to discuss what was said in the group. I refused permission for him to participate. Psychologist demanded a meeting, wanted to know WHY I would refuse to allow participation. I told her that the first thing a child molester tells a kid is ‘don’t tell your parents’. She was very indignant, but I pointed out that if her actions are the same as perverts - don’t be surprised if some people won’t go along. Other moms scoffed and rolled their eyes at me....’kids don’t want to talk to their parents’.
My son was the only one not participating. It lasted one semester - by that time parents were flocking to the office, demanding their kids be removed from the roundtable. Turns out there were quite a few ‘naive’ kids as opposed to the dysfunctional ones they sprinkled around every table. the discussions were frightening to many of the kids.
Looking back, when you told people that something was wrong with this stuff, educated white mommies just rolled their eyes and told you that you were too overprotective.
right.

This parent doesn’t think she’s the customer here. Why should anyone else? She’s teaching the kid to get walked over by people they hire.
