Since I am a doctor I was wondering if I have the rights to diagnose my son? If so...what are my rights?

You are a fraud.
Stop wasting people's time.
In case you dont know, we can look back at previous questions that you ask, and can see that you are a 15 year old girl.

I'm confused - if you are an MD, then you shouldn't have the need to ask this question - you should ALREADY know.
You have every right to diagnose your son unless you are a doctor of a different field other than medicine; however, it's common courtesy to have another doctor look at your child; also, for your child's safety, you should have ANOTHER doctor look at your child due to the fact that your relationship with your child could bias your ability to properly diagnose.

Bear in mind, the only things I know about medicine I pick up from T.V. but I'm pretty sure there is no conflict of ethics in diagnosing your own relation, but you are so close to the patient it really isn't recommended. The familial bond could prevent you from really seeing what is wrong with him. You should always have another doctor you trust treating family.

So today you are a doctor, last week a pool instructor, next week, maybe a waitress???
"Should I quit my job, or just stick it out? My boss...?
I work at a pool as an instructor of swimming. I am only 15 years old and school is my main prority during the winter months. I started this job last summer. I love my job, and I love doing it, but I have working in the winter when I have school work to do. My boss is constantly calling me and pushing me to work more and more. I gently tell him I have school work and cannot commit much time to work, but he doesn't take it well. (He keeps calling and asking.) It has gotten to the point that as much as I like my co-workers, I just can't stand all the pressures of school and outside work. How do I tell my boss that I can't work as much because of school? Please help, guidance, suggestions? Thank you."
You're an idiot. Stop wasting people's time.

I suspect you are not telling the truth. Doctors learn about medical ethics in school.

You're a doctor and you don't know the answer to that?
