I'm a neglectful mother because

Her reasoning you ask. That would be because I allowed it to get that bad!! That being a good mother I would have caught it prior to that. Also because I didn't continue to breast feed.another "legit" reason is because I don't vaccinate (so misinformed) and also because I allowed the dr to give her antibiotics.
I swear this lady is NUTS!!
We went from what seemed to be allergies and teething two days ago to yesterday where she wasn't as hungry cranky Had a 101 fever And then a sleepless night. Literally I slept 30 min all night! To today where I decided we would be going in because she woke up coughing then spit up blood. I immediately made an appt at pediatric office, was sent to urgent, and then told to go straight to er. It was barely pneumonia and just switching from bronchitis.
The way I am being made out to her family and friends (yes they are calling me some to yell some to let me know what she is sayin) is that she has been sick forever!!!! And I just didn't want to spend the money to take her to the dr ( er visits, etc cost us nothing ever lol) and I am not smart enough to know a cold or fatal disease.
Can you believe this woman??
So what do you think am I abusive? Neglectful? Stupid? Etc?
Sorry I wanted to vent but not to my husband because he never sees it and I love him enough to keep my opinion to myself
I'm sorry. Good luck dealing with her. I would personally ignore her completely.

I was breastfeeding him, never took him out if I didn't have to, and he literally went to bed healthy and woke up with pneumonia. Seriously.
Your mil is nuts.
You did right, ds presented the same way and reacted the same way I did! Good for you!
And you are no where near neglectful!
My daughter had pneumonia over Christmas when she was 4. I called the doc 4-5x and he kept saying to relax, there's lots going around. She was full blown by the time she saw him. You just can't always tell. Maybe ask your husband to have her back off a bit. I have a similar issue with a sil, but hubby always sides with her! Good luck.

From experience, the more you let it go, the stronger she'll become. I thought it was easier to let it go, now I have a monster on my hands that makes my husband look like a puppet. She gets into my business and then shares with him...even hacked into my fb account! Good luck to you!

He can see no wrong in his mother and she will lie and say she said nothing it's just easier to not bring it up

I have a almost 10 year old. he has a liver and lung disease (alpha-1) that weakens his immune system so he has been through a lot of illnesses. :/

Your kids seem to have everything everyone elses kid has. You're in every post like this with "my kid had/has that."
Quoting PepperWillow:my son had it and he had been sick for awhile.
So what is he going to say when she decides that you're a totally unfit mother and tries to get CPS to take your kids because you neglected this one? He's the only one who can stop it. If he won't believe you, give him the names of the people who told you what she said... or better yet, ask them to give him a call.
