I'd feel much more reluctant to intervene here than in their previous one that had a woman hassling a gay couple in a restaurant. In the latter case, the parties are total strangers, and she had no business speaking to them at all. Here, you'd be telling a father how to relate to his son.

 

Also, regardless of the issue at hand here: I know that only those who consent would have their faces shown on TV . But I'm still uncomfortable with cameras in a dressing room, where there is a reasonable expectation of privacy. The fact that they're in the common area of the dressing room doesn't change that.

I would have spoken to "Lisa" if she'd asked me for fashion advice. (And given similar advice about dress colors.) As for the father, I would either have asked him to leave the store or flagged down a salesperson to ask him to leave the store if he couldn't control himself. Once he started openly (and loudly) berating his child, saying things like "you're dead to me," he disrupted the shopping experience for everyone else in the store.

 

As far as I could tell, the filming took place in the store, not the dressing room.
