Aibu to think that if you have been asked not to feed your grandchild something you don't then go and feed it to Them?

What food was it? What was the reason?

Polkadot1502 · 24/11/2018 14:59

Take away food and gives her a funny tummy, gp words were when I questioned it " that's just rubbish it's a one off " not my child but my child has allergies and is intolerant to dairy/soya ( I don't know to what extent at the moment but we're talking breathing difficulties whilst she had breast milk ) so now I'm really worrying about me saying she can't have it and then giving it to her anyway when I'm not looking regardless of what I say xx

Completely unacceptable if the allergies and intolerance are under medical supervision. Don't leave your kids in the care of someone who does this - it's actually dangerous if you're talking breathing difficulties, and v bad for their health if poorly tummy. And as your kid gets older, they need to be learning how to keep themselves safe with food.

If you'd explained all this clearly to gp, and explained that all ingredients need checking etc, then don't give them a second chance - no more contact without you there.

Sorry should had said, they don't have my dd alone and for the reason above they won't be, I've been concerned that they would give her a bit of biscuit or something cuz they always ask if she can have some but today when they said they were taking other gc to eat where they have been asked not too it's made me think about it even more so xx

I think that's your answer then OP. They know that the parents don't want them taking GC to eat a particular food but they're doing it anyway. They have a we know best, one time won't hurt attitude but will be the poor parents (and child) dealing with the upset tummy.

You do go against a parents wishes

SnuggyBuggy · 24/11/2018 15:20

I mean don't
Bastard autocorrect

Polkadot1502 · 24/11/2018 16:43

Thank you for your replies, I'm so fed up of saying no she can't have this and that, but they clearly don't listen or respect otherwise they wouldn't be taking other gc somewhere they've been asked not to xx

Do the parents of the other GCs know this? They need to!

Polkadot1502 · 24/11/2018 18:01

They probably don't know no, the parents aren't together so I'm not sure if the mum has asked the same thing but the dad has said he doesn't want her eating it anymore xx
