First off, I would have reported that agent immediately. Such sarcasm is unwarranted but said to a minor, it's downright FILTH and PORNOGRAPHIC.
You bring up a good point about exposure of a minor. I would have to think about that. I wouldn't want my daughter to have to go through that at all so my husband and I might discuss flying with her and see if she really thought it were worth it. We would tell her exactly what could happen and see what her thoughts were.
