Looked at in a slightly different way, say you were a driving instructor who had some "emo" teen on your hands, one of those with the black fingernail polish and the self-harm scars, when you might guess that his strongest secret wish was to get his license and then drive his car into a crowd of people, just going by his demeanor and all. Should you respect his right to privacy, say nothing, and help him get his license as a matter of routine, and then not expect to be sued for that when mayhem ensues?
Yes! That is the whole point.
