Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Well, I just won the “bad neighbor” award. My neighbor called to say her daughter was suffering terrible constipation, so she took her to the doc. Doc gave her Miralax. When she told me that, I gasped out loud and, without thinking, said, “You didn’t give it to her, did you?!” Of course the answer was yes. Still not thinking, I went into a quiet tirade of why that was not a good idea and what she could’ve done instead. I feel so bad on one hand that I wasn’t asked what I thought or for advice and for my quick reaction, yet on the other hand, my God! When will they stop giving this to kids?! I mean, seriously, the kid had 3 days of constipation – what about mineral oil?? They jump so quickly to a prescription! Well, now I have to make amends with my neighbor. I think she likes chocolate chip cookies… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
