[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems overreaching with regard to helicopter parenting if you ask me and I am not a fan at all of trying to shield kids from seeing/hearing anything unpleasant until they're freaking 30 years old, but hey it's your teen and you know her best so do whatever you think is best. [/quote] +1 and I am definitely a helicopter, myself. I'd talk to the kid about my concerns and tell them to check in during the day once or twice. I'm also not a big fan of hanging at the hospital during a procedure. You can leave and return. I spent way too much time as a young kid in the waiting room of a hospital It is extremely stressful watching people go through the worst days of their lives. If you are worried your child will see or hear something unpleasant, I would recommend home over the waiting room.[/quote]
