A mother has shared her experience of a hospital worker attempting to touch her child without permission. The incident occurred while the mother was waiting in line to get blood drawn after a doctor’s appointment with her seven-month-old son. The woman standing behind her began asking about the baby and then proceeded to lift the blanket covering the stroller to take a look inside. Despite the mother’s clear discomfort and requests for her not to touch the baby, the hospital worker continued to try to reach inside the stroller, prompting the mother to leave the hospital and file a complaint. While the mother initially questioned whether or not she was being overly sensitive, the hospital later apologized and assured her that they would take appropriate action. Unfortunately, incidents like this are not uncommon, as many people seem to feel entitled to touch or interact with other people’s children without permission. This is a clear violation of personal boundaries and can be extremely distressing for parents.
