[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Why can't you respect their choice? Hard Stop. [/quote] Because their choice is dangerous for them and for people around them. I don't understand why the BIL isn't gething the baby vaccinated. Last I checked, routine healthcare didn't require the consent of both parents. [/quote] I hear ya'... But it's not OP's decision to make. Maybe the BIL agrees w his wife and doesn't want to vaccinate either. Again, bc you don't agree doesn't give you a right to stage an intervention, force your beliefs or medical findings on them/anyone. It's THEIR child. [/quote] +1 OP what do you expect is going to happen here exactly? “SIL I demand you vaccinate your baby. You are ignorant and ill informed” and you think she is going to say “oh, yes of course you are right. I’ll make an appointment this week. Thanks so much for setting me straight.” I mean…really? LOL. And I certainly do not agree with your SIL. But is is their kid. Pushing the issue or inserting yourselves is highly likely to cause family relationship problems & a digging in of heels. MYOB. [/quote] What about the business of the child, the rest of OP’s family and society at large? I understand that there’s not much OP can do but I also understand being concerned and wanting to talk to her in laws to see why this is happening.[/quote] You need therapy to understand this. It isn't your job to control the behavior of other adults unless there is abuse. You don't get to tell other people how they should live. As a society we agree that some things should be mandated, like seat belt wearing, but you don't get to control other people. Pushing your opinions on other people is rude. In a way you are assuming a position where you think you know more and hold a God like position so you have the right to tell people what decisions they should make. How ridiculous. [/quote]
