Return Policy
The thing you ordered came. You cut the tape and pried up the flaps. Set to pull out your purchase piece by well-advertised piece. Packaged so well You can’t even tell what’s under all that wrapping. What happens when you find that “satisfaction guaranteed” Did not mean your satisfaction? That the perfect fit you expected is instead a wrong-size pack of lies? That elaborate costumes do not change the truth? Will you want to return it? Will you want redress for a mis-taken identity? And what will you do when you can’t get your dearly bought Dream Back in the torn and damaged box? We all learn the hard way that Things Do not Go Back.
That’s the hard part for us parents, I think. We are the ones who have to watch our damaged children return void from their stollen dreams. We will, of course, be there to pick them up and brush them off. But there are no guarantees how they will fare in the end.
Those who rush kids to lock in an identity with drugs and surgeries will not be there for them if things don't go well or if regret surfaces. They gave them what they wanted at the time. The parents are concerned with the long-term health and well-being of their kids, others not so much.
