Dad poll time: children and medicine
I need a little input from all the dads out there. So for all you moms who read my blog here, I have a scenario for you to share with the dad in your life. Whether its first time dads, or fathers of teens. Read the following problem to them, and ask them what they would do. Then leave me a comment here if you could, and I will add all the info together in another blog in a day or two. Don’t worry, there really is reason to my madness.
You have the kids for the weekend, just you. Your 11 1/2 year old daughter has a terrible migraine, again. You give her one junior strength Tylenol, but it doesn’t seem to be working. You don’t want to call your ex wife(aka me), or current wife and let her know you don’t know what to do. You have the following options:
A. Give her another junior strength Tylenol
B. Give her an adult Aleve
C. Call ex or current wife and ask her what to do
D. Call your mother and ask her advice
There you have it ladies and gents, the problem at hand. I will be sending this question out over many sites so I can get as many answers from dads as I can. Thanks in advance, and I think this will be a new part of my blog. A poll combined with the correct answers and advice would be a nice thing. Don’t worry, I won’t stick just with dads, this will be an everyone poll at times.
Every female in my family suffers from migraines as a younger woman, its almost become a rite of passage. And I’m the one with custody, you misunderstood there, I had given him instructions in how to deal with it, not the other way around.
Close responses, but no cigar guys. Next post I’ll fill you in. It’s actually quite interesting.
