[quote:KuvaszLove:MV80Nzg1NzIzXzg3MjYxNzc4XzM0N0UyN0VD] [quote:Shaun Kaven:MV80Nzg1NzIzXzg3MjYxNTUzXzkyMUU0ODg4] [quote:Stella Wayten:MV80Nzg1NzIzXzMzMzZBQUE3] So I took my kid to the dentist today and the dentist said she needed a root canal. I said nope, I don't believe in root canals and i wanted him to just pull it. He said out of good conscious he would not. Then a dental assistant passed by the door and asked the dentist if everything was okay and asked if he needed someone in the room with him. We were just talking so that was weird. Then the dentist left and said someone would be in to bring me referral papers. I hadnt raised my voice or anything. Then a dental assistant walks in and lays a professional walkie talkie looking think down on the counter. About five minutes go by then someone walks in with a piece of paper and says... So you are refusing to get the root canal because you don't believe in them and then paused and looked at me. I said in a very low voice "and"... She then looked down at the papers and said so we are referring you to so and so. She handed me the papers and I walked out the door. Why in the world did they set that walkie talkie down. I assume it was to record me and that the lady giving me the papers was trying to get me to admit to something. That's why I just said "and". Oh, and I can't find a dentist that will just pull her tooth. [/quote] Be REALLY CAREFUL, OP. What they wanted to do was call Child Protecton on you and say that you’re taking irrational decisions for your child that are the equivalent of abuse. It’s happening more and more where a parent decides not to do a root canal or not vaccinate a child and it results in child welfare taking them away. At this point, I keep my children away from any and all medical professionals unless I have a very good relationship with them. [/quote] That was my first thought too, report you to social services, you must have used a loud voice even if you think you didn't because she heard it from another room.have to be very careful these days [/quote]
