      I agree with Halstead, but I don't think the last scene was coddling. It may have helped the mother see the error of her ways and how she's smothering her son. She does love him, but in a destructive way. Those things are not necessarily mutually exclusive, especially among families. Which is why it such a split in bad faith is so hurtful for both sides and can lead to so much bitterness. The son is completely in his right to distance himself from his mother if she keeps this up, so let's hope that she learns from this and learns to let him find his own way. He may forgive her in time if she keeps working on herself.

    That Blonde doctor was such a pain really. There is nothing wrong with evaluating all the possibilities. If a doctor thinks the patient could be in potential danger, it being psychological or physical it is literally THEIR JOB to interfere! And i believe there is something they teach in Med School about maintaining their patient's freedom by making it clear what all the options are and let them decide by themselves, and as he said "Brandon's the patient, not the mom".

      But he could have tried to talk to the mother, undestand the situation and convince her before tell the boy to try the most extreme solution. In the end she was really a good mother, she was just scared. The way that the blond doctor talked to her made she feel more secure to open up about the situation. If the boy is going to another country, he probably will need support, so a good relationship with his mother might be really important to his adaptation

      In Québec, Canada, age of medical consent is 14 years old. Even if you have to be hospitalized for something, the only thing hospitals are obligated to do is inform the parents their child is hospitalized so they don't report him as missing to the police. But I think for the USA, since they don't have universal health care, the must have parent's insurance and such.
      In Asian countries, families must give their consent even for an adult to have a medical procedure. Like the husband, mother-in-law must consent for the daughter-in-law to have necessary surgery. Medical culture is not the same everywhere.

    In Canada there's no stipulated age for medical consent: "There is no stipulated age of consent for treatment. A person under 18 years of age who is assessed and deemed capable of consenting to treatment (a mature minor) is allowed to make treatment decisions." So it's up to doctors to determine if the minor aged patient is capable and they can override the parents if they seemed unreasonable or are putting the child in danger. For really young kids, they'd need to talk to a judge of course.

      Well I have a unique insight here my parents forced me to take something I was allergic too ( resulted in me being in hospital for a week worst week of my life I was throwing up every 5 minutes and in hell of a fever had i.v. lines in me everywhere) I warned my mother but she was adamant ( threatened me with homelessness if I didn't) within 45 minutes I was so sick ambulance was called all would have been prevented if she had listened to me in the first place I'd had anaphylaxis reaction to a medication before I asked her should I take that again? At the hospital the consultant said why the hell did you take something you're allergic too! I said I had no choice

The more you push Someone the more likely it is they push back. The kid and mother need counselling here so they can have an open conversation, yes the mom is looking out for her sons safety but she’s also overriding his decisions, a loss of control is what Pushed Brennons mom into managing his medication in the first place.

He is a teenager and should be able to take medication on his own. He should have already learned to take the right dosages and everything. She is keeping his son from growing up and that’s why he is doing this. He feels so desperate to have a bit of freedom. If she pushes him into doing the trial he will go no contact as soon as he turns 18. It’s about the kid not the mother. It’s not her body but his, he should have some say in this.

    In the UK where I had received my treatment the age of consent, at least for medical procedures, is 16. The legal system however is often not enough. Coercion exists. Even if the patient is able to give or withdraw consent it is, in my opinion, the responsibility of the medical staff, however partially, to ensure that those rights are protected. I’ve had nurses not only standby, but side with my mother when she cried and begged and eventually bullied me into invasive surgery even though it was within my legal rights to refuse, because I had just turned 16. I did refuse, for hours on end, at which point it should’ve been the end of the discussion. It wasn’t. And the medical staff proceeded according to the wishes of the family, and not the patient despite it being perfectly clear that I was coerced into signing the consent papers. Cases like this make me angry to this day and I fucking hate these people

    • @Mystress1980
      @Mystress1980 Рік тому +8

      I think that's a pretty big assumption, and shows you are also biased. In a case like this, we can all see the mother's side, wanting to protect her son and take care of him, like she's been doing his whole life. But we also see the son's perspective. At what point does it become his life that he gets to live on his terms? At 17, Mom needs to take a step back and see she's raised him, and trust that she raised him right, and will make good choices. Smothering a child with love, and trying to wrap them in bubble wrap will only have the opposite effect she's hoping for. You have to let the baby bird leave the nest. Anything else is unfair and selfish. Love your children, but let them live their lives.

    Age of medical consent is not the same everywhere. In Québec, Canada, you get to make your medical decision at 14 years old. Obviously most will listent to their parents' advice, but starting at 14 you sign your own medical forms, and can gets medical procedures without your parents being informed, being vaccines, surgery, abortion, tests, etc. So a teen with anti-vaccine parents can get his vaccination done without their consent, a teen with anti-abortion parents who got pregnant can get an abortion, a teen with Jehovah witness parents can get a blood transfusion, a teen with stage 4 cancer can choose not to get treatment, etc. But we have universal health care, so teen treatments do not need approval from parents medical insurance.
