What is the name of your state? MA
I am applying for a dental office job and the doctor called me himself to do a quick phone interview. Halfway through the interview he asked me if I had family obligations. I told him that yes but none that would interfere with my job. He then said "well, do you have children?" I paused because I thought this was illegal to ask, but then responded that I did have children. He asked how old they were, specifically he wanted to know if they were high school age or elementary age. I answered him but I am wondering if he had any right to ask in the first place. Thank you
