Grandma Picks the Dog Over Her Grandchild... Seriously? 🐶🤦♀️
Family gatherings used to be my favorite, but lately, they've turned into a circus. My daughter has severe allergies—she's been hospitalized more times than I can count, and just being around dogs makes her skin flare up and her breathing worse. You'd think family would understand, right?
Last weekend, we tried to plan a simple dinner at my mother-in-law's. But my brother-in-law insists on bringing his dog, and my MIL's solution? "Just keep the baby and the dog apart," in a house with no separate rooms. Or better yet, she suggested my husband go alone and bring us food back. I couldn't believe it. My husband was crushed, and honestly, I'm just tired of feeling like my child's health comes second to a pet.
Has anyone else ever felt like their family just doesn't get it? How do you handle situations where your child's needs are brushed aside? I could really use some advice from someone who's been there. 😔🐾
