I’m 100% with you on this one, but just to play devil’s advocate for a second, I can hear a parent saying, “I don’t want my kid’s friends to do things that will negatively affect them, in turn affecting my kids.” That’s why some Yeshivos won’t take any kid from a family that (openly admits to) owns a TV. Not saying I agree with the parent in this case – she is way out of line, as you pointed out – but presumably that’s where she’s coming from.
