Re: denist rejection
She did it, so I guess the answer is yes. I firmly believe that a business person has the right to refuse service to anyone, for almost any reason. If you want a fight, then you could claim discrimination and maybe force the dentist to see your son, but do you want a dentist you sued to see your son and put drills in his mouth?
