I cannot even begin to tell you how, as a mother, I feel about the idea of closely watching someone frisk my child simply because we are traveling from Point A to Point B. My job is to prevent this sort of thing, not to closely observe while someone does it.

I was really looking for something more practical, ie: try to leave the checkpoint and try another. Is there anything else anyone can suggest? I think it is important to look for some practical alternatives to watching one's child being pawed.
