A Baltimore Child's School Had Three Of His Teeth Removed Without His Mother's Consent

9-year-old Michael Flemming's mother signed what she believed to be a permission form for a dentist visiting his school to perform a routine cleaning on her son's teeth. When he came home with three missing, she was outraged. Do you think this should have happened?

Shanda Flemming agreed to allow a dentist visiting her son's school to clean 9-year-old Michael's teeth. But when he came home with three teeth missing, she was furious. According to Flemming, the school did not notify her of her that the visiting dentist would be removing her son's teeth.

I’m angry about this. I don’t think that it should have happened like that.

Flemming is additionally outraged because when they failed to notify her of her son's extra dental procedures, he missed the bus home and was forced to walk nearly a mile by himself.

I just don’t understand how a school or a company can take it in their hands to do something like this to a child.

So, now, we would like to know...

Do you think Flemming should have been notified before her son's teeth were pulled?
