I’m legitimately very curious why y’all are so scared of a doctor asking your kid questions without you present? What do you think is happening? What do you think a doctor is going to do? The real issue is what do you think your kid is gonna say?
The real issue is that it is my kid and my duty to care for that child. It isn’t the doctor’s duty or your duty. So trying to shove the parent aside for some clandestine conversation is a huge red flag. Acting super defensive and then trying to weaponize parental protection against the parent is even a bigger red flag.
@JDatLAW @_celia_bedelia_ If you aren't abusing your kid, anything they tell the doctor they will tell you. Hint: if you're scared your child will tell the doctor/therapist/teacher etc something you don't want them to know or have said.... You might be the problem
@JDatLAW @_celia_bedelia_ The parents is often the abuser. Getting the child separate from the abuser is critical to the child's safety. Seems like you're hiding something if you don't trust your child alone with a medical professional and a MANDATED reporter.
@JDatLAW @_celia_bedelia_ the real issue is that you don’t trust your kid to talk to the doctor alone that really only says “I’m afraid of what they’re talking behind my back “ which usually means you’re doing something you know is not right and you fear others will find out. suspicious, if you ask me
@JDatLAW @_celia_bedelia_ mh, so you're not going to send your kid to school oder childcare? Because you won't be around, they will care for your kid, and they will ask questions about their wellbeing. No real difference.
