[quote=Anonymous]None of that stuff is covered in medical school, so she has no particular expertise on those topics. She may think she has significant experience in those areas as a parent, but if I don't know her kids, why should I take her word for it? I know quite a few doctors' kids who are brats. I should just as well ask the barista at Starbucks how to get my kids to eat more healthfully. Frankly, I wouldn't even bother asking the pediatrician about discipline or reading or any of the other things for which they often claim an expertise. They don't have it. I hire them to diagnose and treat illnesses; they should stick to that. She sounds insufferable, and I don't even disagree with her points.[/quote]
