As a highly-sensitive-person, the dentist was always a nightmare for me. It didn’t help that my stepmom was always my dental assistant and had no sympathy for the pain in my mouth. There is so much love and momma fuel in this — I love how strongly you defend your son! I hope you get some recourse for this because it sounds like a really messed up situation. I’m so sorry that you and your son have to go through this. I hope his mouth feels better soon.
