The lights didn't prevent or reduce that ability.

  Of course they do. Your ability to see the high tips of light (not a great phrasing, can't think of a better wording) from something around the corner is predicated on it being dark up there. If your own lights are on high, then it isn't and you simply cannot distinguish as early (and this especially applies if the other driver has dipped lights).

    I can’t really follow your argument. You can’t see people coming when there is more light? So in your mind visibility is worst in full daylight?

      I think the parents is saying it’s harder to see an oncoming car’s headlights if the entire scene is lit more brightly.
