I'm horrified to have typed that.
She had her ears pierced last month and one of them is infected. It's getting worse and she won't let me clean it, just screams hysterically and flails so I can't get at her.
It doesn't hurt; she has told me so. But she's scared to touch it herself or have me touch it.
I am using antiseptic spray on it which is hopefully helping, but it's starting to look really grim.
WIBU to physically restrain her so that her dad can clean her ear? And if not, what the hell should I do? She's a very sensitive child and I don't want to lose her trust but we have to do something soon.
And for anyone who says that we should never have got her ears pierced, I certainly did it against my better judgement and am now thoroughly regretting it.
