Been to GP this morning, DS2 has tonsillitis. Been prescribed 7 days of antibiotics. Cannot get him to take it!! He's 6 and really funny about sweet stuff anyway ie hates juice, squash etc will only drink water, hates Calpol which most kids love. Have spent a hour begging, pleading, threatening, bribing but no joy. He tried some gagged made himself sick. Having an absolute melt down over the meds. All very stressed and upset. My question is, if he does not take any meds, will it get better on its own? Or do I need to find a way to make him?
