Parents outraged after school application asks: 'Was your child delivered by C-section?' |

School chiefs in California have come under fire for asking intimate questions about how its children were delivered during birth. Parents hoping to enrol their children in the Dry Creek School District have to complete an application form that asks if their child was delivered naturally or by caesarean section.

Those mothers who tick the 'C-section' option are then asked to explain why the procedure was performed.
But parents in Roseville, California, who were presented with the form as they tried to enrol their children in school say the intimate questions are a breach of privacy.
'I really don’t feel think the school asking if the child was delivered vaginally or by C-Section is appropriate,' a mother of two identified as Heather told the local CBS13 station.
'What’s next? This is an invasion of our privacy,' she said.
Heather said she had asked the school to explain their reasoning behind the invasive questions, but had yet to receive a reply.
She said the invasive questions were not relevant to getting her children enrolled at school.
