The medical community has more power over your kids than you realize. When my kids were about to be middle school age, they had an appointment with a man at their doctor's office who wasn't their doctor. He asked me to leave the room, which I did since my kids had each other in the room.
I didn't go far, because those boys could and would hit an adult of they felt unsafe. So, I'm standing outside the exam room thinking, " please behave, please behave, please behave, please behave". When suddenly I hear, " wtf is wrong with you?!" More profanities, and I simply spoke up through the door about having respect for adults.
My son grabbed the door open, and told me the doctor was trying to coach both boys into saying the adults around them were being inappropriate. (But, the boys being together prevented that imo.) My response of the time was that the fill in doctor wasn't familiar with my kids ability to get out of hand, and I was trying to be nice by keeping them in check. That doctor took my being strict as an indication of, " abuse". Their regular doctor later asked me not to make any appointments if he wasn't available, because the fill in doctor was causing issues for other patients.
I will never forget that making sure your children behave, and speak respectfully was considered by that medical professional to be a sign of abuse. Lord knows what would have happened if I had allowed my kids to misbehave.
I have never owned a gun. I have no problems being honest about that answer. That doesn't mean I was never taught how to use one safely, and it doesn't mean don't believe in 2A. I answer every time knowing they are asking the wrong questions.
Although I had a dare officer come to my house over my lil bro smoking cigarettes. I had to leave my room, "meditating" to open that knock on the door... when my kids were in elementary school. That was my kids first lesson in police twisting what is actually said into what they want said.
Did not end up in the favor of the police. My kids could probably teach stfu Friday people a thing or two after everyone got done giving them safety tips!

First off. You trusted.
After a pediatrician asked if i owned a gun there were no more annual checkups with regular whitecoated maniacs.
My doc after that was a cool gal who wasnt brainwashed.

Wow. Where do u live? In general. They sound really into the program.
Also. Public school not as good as private.
Agree. It's not if i do or dont own a gun. It was the principle. Check child's physical health and mind your own business.
