Dreading SD coming home...

Leigh's picture

SD13 has strep throat, so we have to bring her home a day early from her mother's to take her to the doctor. She is already pitching a fit. We would love to let her mother take her to the doctor, but she would never get off her couch to do it. So we're going to be the bad guys. I would not mind letting her suffer if that's what she wanted for an extra day, but my parents are coming from out of town for the holidays, and I want her to be out of the contagious stage. I'm sure I'm in for tears and accusations about how we just don't want her to see her mom. It'll be all my fault that she got sick. I guess the thing that is really bothering me though, is how upset she is about coming him less than a day early.

Well you can tell her strep throat can turn into mono which can turn into a heart condition. And if she doesn't see the Dr then she could get very sick very fast and be dead by Sunday. It does happen.

Scare the shit out of her. If she doesn't shut up tell her that she COULD have stayed with her mother if her mother had taken her to the Dr yesterday.
