Opt-out minors and enhanced patdowns -- looking for facts
Sorry if this has been answered in another thread, but...
Can anybody tell us whether the enhanced patdown is DEFINITELY being performed on minors whose parents opt them out?
Spent an inordinate amount of time reading through literally thousands of NoS-related posts. Found lots of FTers giving advice and/or discussing how they would handle it IF they were faced with a choice between radiation and patdown, but saw nothing stating definitively that TSA is or is not, for a fact, performing the enhanced patdowns on minors. [again, no desire to be redundant, so apologies if we simply missed the posts]
We have determined that we may not be able to avoid making this choice during some upcoming domestic flights with one of our 15-year-old daughters. Certainly, avoiding exposure to radiation (not to mention the resultant porn) is an extraordinarily high priority for us. However, the patdown is simply not an option if it will be "enhanced" (i.e., involving her chest, butt or anywhere too close to the groin region).
Seeking FTers' recent real-life personal experiences and/or first-hand observations.
Thanks!
