Yeah, you're still wrong. You have rights, and don't know how to exercise them.
It's ok though. Pretty much every day in my line of work, there exists a handful of people whom I (indeed, all people in a medical field) attempt to educate, knowing full-well it will be totally ignored. They either don't want to hear it because they're set in their ways, or just want a "quick fix" and to be on their way. I'll be there when they want to get patched up, and I'll be there when those lines of thinking end up killing them earlier, and with less healthy years, than they could have lived.
And I'm fine with all that.
Helping people does not rely on them actually following your advice, just that the advice is imparted in good faith; that sometimes, people really think about it, and take positive steps towards their well-being, and live a longer, fuller life. People do it all the time, and you can never know who might turn their life around on any given day.
So, now you're armed with information- something a thousand times more powerful than anything in your personal armory.
