Well said. I couldn’t agree more. Some kids are afraid to question authority because of cultures. In some cultures children are told they are rude when they question anything. My 5 year old told his doctor that his mom needs to be present when she undressed him for his physical exam. She was surprised. I teach them at a very young age not to allow anything which is uncomfortable. Thank you
