Like I said, take your appointment seriously. You know your children. If you have one of them who is going to be screaming and banging things and grabbing things and distracting from the appointment, you might as well not go. The doctor isn’t going to do a good job of examining you, explaining the condition, or giving you directions and you probably aren’t going to do a good job of receiving those directions. I’m not talking about never bringing a child if the child can behave or if the kid is old enough to give them a book or an iPad or whatever. But if you have a little demon toddler, figure something else out. Otherwise, it’s a waste of time for everybody involved.
