The boy also will likely experience embarrassment at having his temperature taken rectally. He may want to keep it secret from the other youngsters in the household. However, it may soon become apparent as the caretaker announces that it's time to take his temperature and totes him to her bedroom and closes the door. The curiosity of the other youngsters may provoke them to listen at the door and even sneak a peek though a slightly open door. Their remarks to him and obvious amusement later on would reveal their knowledge and which would trigger him to feel even more embarrassed then and even more so a few hours later the next time his temperature is taken. Perhaps a “no privacy” doctrine has some merit because it removes the cloak of secrecy of getting a rectal temperature. In other words, taking his temperature in the open in plain view of other members household, and in particular other youngsters, removes the secretive element from the experience, the embarrassment may play itself out over time.
