Honestly, CPS leaves kids in homes that are unsafe for far longer than they should. So, if kids have been removed, stay out of it and never give those people money.
Second OP should have called CPS immediately when she knew that the parents were spending money on pills and the kids were staying with her all the time
They've also sent them back to die at the hands of abusive parents because 'we have to preserve the family,' even taking them from loving foster parents that want to love them as their own children.
Damned if you do damn if you do not. People complain that DCFS/CPS is taking kids and then when they do take kids then people complain that it is an overreach and that CPS just wants to pocket the money. Sorry but even if CPS does pocket money for taking kids the investigators do not get the money.
I have a severe peanut allergy and I can 100% confirm that the grandmother in the last story is dangerous to leave the grandson with. When I was 4 or 5 my grandfather accidentally gave me peanut m&ms (he didn't realize that the yellow baggies were different, he thought it looked more fun than the normal brown ones, it was completely unintentional). Thankfully I hated the taste and only ate one, but that was enough to trigger severe vomiting, hives, and at some point my memory goes out and I'm not sure what happened. I'm not even sure if I went to the ER or not (my dad's a doctor and my mom is a retired RN, so it's possible they handled it, I don't remember) One peanut m&m did that. One. If I had eaten more I could've died before the ambulance even arrives. It also ruined chocolate for me because for years I didn't know it wasn't a normal m&m, but that's besides the point. While I disagree with the grandmother giving her granddaughter meat morally, I find it far more concerning that she doesn't take the grandson's allergy seriously. The meat issue was emotionally upsetting and still valid, but I am happy that this was the incident that happened rather than the little boy getting tricked into eating peanuts. Don't let that woman give him so much as one piece of candy, it could end up being his last... P.S. I posted this as a reply originally but I feel it needs to be it's own comment so here it is.
@@laurenmentink7401 Malicious is 10000000+ percent worse than accidental, both are terrifying in the moment when its happening to ya tho. I spent an evening in the ER because of someone (a trained nurse mind you) who refused to believe food allergies were a real thing put peanut butter in the chili we were having for a family dinner trying to "catch me in a lie", she even tried to stop me from going to the hospital yelling at everyone that i was faking it to make her look bad and that i wasn't really allergic and she should know since she was a nurse. Thankfully a neighbor ran me up to the hospital because with her ranting and snatching the phone off us (yes this was long enough ago we had a single landline downstairs, cell phones weren't quite a common thing yet) we couldn't call for an ambulance and it was faster to just get me in someone's car and GO while everyone else dealt with her nonsense. If you have an allergy and anyone says to you they don't believe in allergies, that person is now a potential hazard in your environment who is a huge risk to you and through either neglect or deliberate action can and eventually will cause you to be exposed to your allergen.
@@TheMichigami My god, I hope she was arrested or had serious karma. Deliberately preventing someone from calling emergency services for life-saving treatment is basically attempted murder and she's a complete psycho that shouldn't be outside of a prison or a mental hospital.
Re: food choices and allergies: My grandchildren are lactose intolerant, each to a different degree, and one has several food allergies. I always check with their parents about anything I feed them. Always. Even if the children ask for something I clear it with one of their parents unless it is pre-approved.
I also am lactose and tolerant and worst of all growing up I was allergic to whey a preservative in like everything a baker managed make me like some.sort of tofu cake if I had any of this stuff I would have bad direah and vomit and back then it wasn't cheap to get special milk for me at all and I have another friend who can really only have soy milk because of how bad his is to dairy and stuff
You sound like a fantastic grandmother! Honestly would love a grandparent who pays that much attention, mine passed when I was 10 and then 13 and I miss them (I’m 30 now), and they had a very different attitude towards food. One over salted everything because she smoked 100 a day despite being told not to, and the other, knowing I had fish allergies, always said “you don’t have to like it, you just have to eat it”, “but I’m allergic”, “well go hungry then”. I miss them but they were terrible when it came to feeding me
@@sparrowstar3490 Thank you. I guess I learned a lot from my mother and mother-in-law. They stayed out of my marriage and parenting unless I asked. My son was 6 when my mother passed. Each of my grandchildren is lactose intolerant. The youngest is also allergic to soy. Meals are a challenge but the children understand their differences. My son and daughter-in-law are great parents.
OH NO! No no no! If that woman is already ignoring the food preferences of a child and doesn't believe in allergies, then do not trust her with those kids! I and my partner have food allergies and they are not to be laughed at. Allergies can KILL if ignored.
Selfish g-ma said: "Sometimes they grow out of them." Sure but U aren't their Dr. & U don't declare the status! So NO U Won't B Feeding Them Again! (I'd cut all contact) 👹↔g-ma
OP isn't wrong about worrying about mother in law's actions. If she gave the youngest child her food allergy, she would go into anaphylactic shock, if she doesn't have or administer an epinephrine within the time frame of when she ate the food. I say cut all ties, considering that the MIL could possibly endanger both of the kids. The MIL might not even call the ambulance for her grandchild going through anaphylactic shock.
@@LuvSn00py00 Yah I can hear her now, "No ambulance! It's just a phase she'll get over it! Kids these days, always throwing a tantrum to get what they want!"
People can also develop meat allergy, there are a couple of species of tick found in the US and Australia and being bitten by them can cause a serious meat allergy. Look up 'alpha gal syndrome'.
@@marshawargo7238 I'm not sure about outgrowing. In my childhood, I had an allergy against skin-toned band-aid. Not anymore. But it can be, that in those times there was something in it, which isn't now anymore.
The last story got me steamed in a bad way. Would you serve a Jew or a Muslim pork? A Hindu any meat? The nature of the preference doesn't matter. Put your foot down. If she can't even respect a choice based refusal to eat something, that woman will end up poisoning the child with the peanut allergy.
Hey, Hindu people can eat any meat except beef. Pork is considered dirty so generally avoided but has no religious restrictions. Don't drag us into this without research. Infact most Hindu's dread the days they have to fast/eat vegetarian for pujas or other functions. But nothing would piss any person religious or not if you sabotage our palate. McDonald's shelled out big money for using beef tallow in their fries in India.
@@glitched_out6589 my apologies, the Hindu girl I went to school with was from a completely vegetarian family. I should not have assumed that every Hindu was as such. I do think my point stands though.
@@daemon2426 No offence taken. In our religion there are castes and even region based sects. Some take the vegetarianism very seriously. But some of us enjoy that succulent spicy meat so so much 🍗🥩👍
Would discuss the origins of the banning of pork, but I would NEVER demand they eat it or try it. It actually does potentially have an interesting origin based on in-group signalling.
Not just peanut allergies! Allergies to shellfish spring to my mind (I stop breathing, but other people have different reactions,) as well as certain molds/antibiotics! And before I forget, I'm closer to 60 than to 40!
Seems none of you have really seen someone with peanut allergies? Sure it bad or just say it really bad but called it murder is just exagarated. Defend on degree of allergies it may cause itchy skin, headache, sleepy, etc, but i not even sure if it possible to really kill someone with peanut allergies by feed them peanut
@@suzannepottsshorts that absolutely counts as murder. Willful ignorance or prideful stubbornness is no excuse for forcing or tricking someone into eating something they deathly allergic to. There was a story where a woman gave her son something that had his severe peanut allergen in it and he ended up in a coma. After he recovered, his belated birthday was being celebrated and his mom put peanuts in the birthday cake (luckily he didn’t get a chance to eat it before the crazy bitch confessed to the deed). Her ex-husband found out and flew in to a rage because she literally was going to kill OP just to prove he was faking the earlier incident. She was kicked out and was never allowed near OP again.
@@LunaP1 She Should Have Had MORE! Just being kicked out & denied access to the kid should have been the bare minimum! Charges should have been filled by the State so no one could drop them! That should be considered attempted murder! He was in a comma for the same thing!!! 👹↔mom
4:57-5:03 I literally banged my head against my phone over that statement. this stupid dingdong actually thought that a hearse was a limousine🤦🏼♀️ I-I have no other words.
It blows my mind that there are still people who "don't believe" in allergies. Like it was debatable. Like the kid doesn't want peanuts, so instead of throwing a tantrum they got swollen, and you have to drive them to the hospital, only because they want some attention.
Friend of mine didn't know he was allergic to prawns and had some when we went for seafood. We almost had a heart attack when the dude's throat started swelling like a bullfrog. Good thing we got him to a hospital in time
Having a type of dairy allergy, I relate to this so much. I *literally* have to have a reaction in front of people for them to believe me. Each time I was finally believed was when I didn't know the trigger food was in there (but it wasn't done to me deliberately) Ex-Husband: 😮 "I thought you were exaggerating" Uncle: 😮 "I thought you were making it up" Prev Co-workers: 😮😮 "Omg she was right" That's been the general gist of it, mine's a specific dairy so people are less inclined to believe it over a general dairy. It's frustrating as hell
@@shadowfoxx5317 wow. That sounds horrible. So glad, though, that there are people who finally get it. Now, I have a lot of allergies myself. So when someone tells me, I very specifically ask what they can and can't eat. Because I'd feel horrible if something happened because I gave someone food they are allergic to. I don't need prove. I believe people as soon as they say, no matter how ridiculous it may sound. The only doubt I'll ever had was when kids told me they were allergic to vegetables. Still, I always check with the parents, just to make sure. (And I'm allergic to apples, for example. When I was a kid, I always told my parents my throat got itchy whenever I ate apples. My dad didn't believe me. I took one apple from my grandmother's tree and ate half of it. We weren't even able to get home before my dad had to stop the car. I was coughing so hard I was nearly unable to breathe. Only then did he realize that I had been honest about it all the time. 😅 At least, it meant I was no longer forced to eat food I knew would give me a reaction)
The universe: Ah! Teach lady a lesson, help these folks get rid of these couches, and help a guy get a free couch? Done. Productive work day. Let’s get this on reddit so we can continue to revel in this.
OP should have checked with CPS to find out Y she had her Kids taken. If they said they can't disclose info, OP could ask for the dates. Then check police records. Those r public. CPS Doesn't take kids for No Reason there isn't room!
@@marshawargo7238 I have to disagree with your last statement. While CPS does an important job I know of cases where they acted solely on unsupported accusations that I'm in a position to know are false. However, CPS and the investigating police were uninterested in speaking to me and I tried to speak to them. Yeah, you don't want to call the "victim" a liar, but sometimes they are. I do agree with your first statement. Know who you're trying to help.
The grandmother in that third story is horrifying. I'm vegetarian and not by choice. Most meat doesn't agree with me with chicken actually making me sick. Considering there are several people in my family with severe food allergies it's important for our dietary needs to be respected. Also allergies aren't something that can be brushed off. If my grandparents or anyone did this my parents would probably cut contact and definitely wouldn't be having any more meals around them.
I choose not to eat meat (except specific kinds of seafood), and because they've been cut from my diet for 17 years, any amount of those meats will actually make me sick. I remember when I was younger, I accidentally ate marinara sauce with beef and I remember being so sick that I wanted to throw up. This is because my body stopped creating enzymes that help digest things like meat, so it in turn upsets your entire biological ecosystem. Milk does the same thing. If I eat too much dairy, it also makes me extremely nauseous, so I know I'm not just overthinking it.
If my late MIL would've been like that I would have never trusted her to cook anything for my kids ever again! And ignoring a peanut allergy? Seriously? What world is that crazy woman living in? Um no way . OP is right for not trusting her MIL.
My ex in laws scoffed at my daughter's serious food intolerances when she was a tot. When she was 2, we cut ties and they didn't see her for 15 years. Obviously there was more to cutting ties than the diet issues, but it was just one minor check mark in a long laundry list of craziness.
Wow. Not only is that extremely shady to give a vegetarian meat, and particularly a child vegetarian, but depending on how long she’s been vegetarian that could make her very sick. Yucky MIL.
So true. I'm glad my mother respects that I am a pescatarian. She does sometimes forget and offers me meat other than fish, but as soon as I give her "the look" she catches herself and apologizes.
As a toddler, my daughter almost made herself a vegetarian because she would turn away any meat. My wife and I were going to roll with it, but eventually she turned to the meat side when she asked for and tasted hot dog. *shrug*
The woman needed to go to jail (druggie). The mom feeding the kid meat was WAY over the line. I am a grandmother of 9 grandkids. Mine are now from 26 to 3, most in high school, college, and out. When they were little, I had boundaries their parents had laid down and I respected them. THAT is how you grandparent. I'm glad OP left the MIL out of things.
Story3: When the "friend" demanded OP tell the police she made a mistake, pity OP didn't respond with: "The only mistake I made was trusting your sorry arse."
Pescatarian myself, it is so disrespectful when people judge you for not eating chicken/red meat/etc. I’ve had cafeteria servers make fun of me and acquaintances try to blur the lines about amphibians to convince me to eat what I dont want to eat. I grew up this way and no one has the right to tell me what I should eat. Totally wrong on the MIL’s part
No judgement on dietary preferences, but women who have menses require iron, and most fish don't have a lot of iron. Make sure you get sufficient iron (with Vit C to make it bioavailable). Tabouli dish ticks a lot of boxes (parsley contains both iron and vit c)...(assumption from screen name that you are a female)
As vegan myself, yes, it's both disrespectful and annoying when people try to talk me to eat eggs, dairy or honey. Just no. I never forced anyone to follow my dietary decisions and would appreciate to be treated the same. It's everyone's personal choice what they put on their plate.
I found your channel by accident a couple months ago and I really enjoy these videos that's why I decided to subscribe, thanks for always making my day DarkFluff.
Anyone who doesn't believe Allergies aren't serious and tries to force other people to their beliefs needs to be cut off from the rest of the family FOR LIFE!
That's hard for you. I assume you are a North American Bigfoot, at least you don't have the problems that the Yeti do with alien robot replicas giving them a bad name.
The MIL is a real piece of work. The child's parents should avoid having the MIL near the children at all costs due to her moronic ideas and total disregard to boundaries and *REAL* health issues.
I was already upset with MIL about tricking the granddaughter. Preparing food for others is sacred to me,and I'm sure for many other chefs and/or parents, it's a thing of absolute trust. But then we bring in an allergy that she doesn't believe in and it's a whole new level. No, she does not deserve another chance ever. What if that second chance is loaded and battered in peanut oil?? No way!
Karens call the police whenever they dont get their way bc they truly think it's illegal to not do whatever they order others to do, not just what they want, need or say but ORDER. One of the biggest things about Karens i wasn't to know is why they think if a manager won't fire a customer they can call the police and the cop will make sure they get fired from a location they don't work at like cops have the authority to fire anybody from their job which is just ridiculously asignine 😂

Re: Veggie Kid I think Daughter is a little young to be going veggie, but _as long as she's getting everything a growing body needs,_ her choice should be respected. If she's not, that's a matter for her doctor and parents, _not_ MIL.
Why is she “a little young” to become a vegetarian? My aunt & uncle are vegetarians and raised their kids to be vegetarian from day 1. I was impressed at how my cousins loved drinking soy milk & really loved eating yogurt as a before bed snack. (They were not vegan) They grew up eating so healthy & they loved the taste of it all. As a vegetarian myself, I was jealous, because I had to adjust my tastebuds, and my cravings, to my new diet. Eventually I did, and now I love all kinds of vegetarian food & soy & almond milks make a bowl of cereal taste better to me than dairy milk (it was weird what Amazon Fresh or Walmart grocery delivery would run out of at the height of Covid shortages - I’m on disability & don’t own a car, so grocery delivery is a necessity, especially since moving from Philly to S. Jersey.)
I was that age when I made the decision to be vegetarian. My parents supported my decision and helped me learn how to get all the nutrients I needed to be healthy.
There’s definitely not an age where kids need meat to survive. Any age is fine. Unless there’s an underlying medical condition where the kid needs meat to live, let her be vegetarian. Also though, yes, make sure she’s getting the nutrients she needs. But it’s pretty easy to do that. Same as making sure you get all your nutrients in an omnivorous diet.
@@paradoxical_taco and you can better believe those children are going to have lifelong medical issues. As a retired nurse I can tell you firsthand that vegetarian families are some of the most unhealthy families there is. Their health issues are right up there with families that eat McDonald's 6 times a day!
Story 3: Having been a foster-to-adopt parent, this is actually a milder story than some of the others that I've heard of. It's just sad and disgusting what people will do to their own children. :(
A friend of mine’s daughter went vegetarian. Sadly, she began to find many item had meat in them. Her favorite shampoo had animal by products. She continued & found it more of a challenge than she had expected.
My first job as a teenager was as a meat wrapper in a supermarket back in the day when they brought the meat in as sides and whole carcasses. They cut the meat and I wrapped it. Well after a couple of weeks, seeing what it went through,was bad enough. The last straw was when my boss cut his hand open on the band saw. As blood poured out everywhere, he put a towel on his hand and said he'd stop by after work and get a few stitches at the hospital, they knew him. I asked what to do with all the meat that was covered in blood and he said "nothing, a little extra blood would hurt it". That's when I turned vegetarian!
My mum actually suggested after I gave birth to my eldest that and I quote "nanny will take her to get her ears pierced, give you guys some rest" nah uh... Nope. Outright told her if she did I would press charges for assault
@@brianaschmidt910 it is supposed to be funny even though it’s used in a non funny way you’re basically saying not to make fun of something while making fun of it and I’ve never really understood the point of it it’s just habit
I know the vegetarian story is about the MIL. But what caused a 9 year old to want to be vegetarian? It sounds like she was influenced by her friends sister who told her some stories to scare her. Im just saying. Also a vegetarian diet can be very dangerous and unhealthy for a 9 year old without parents who track her protein. I imagine op was doing this but it wasnt necessary to the story so not mentioned.
Story 3: That someone decides to have issues with personal decisions about what they eat and even more that they scoff at allergies... I would have totally not have gone there to eat.
I'm going to make another comment, because more people need to know about this. There is a disease called "alpha gal" It is caused by the tick bite of a lone star tick. I have 2 friends that have this. Aloha gal causes a Meat allergy. This is an alkergy to All mammalian meat. One friends reaction is literally life snd death because he starts having trouble bresthing. The other friends reaction is a very bad rash. Be careful out there people. Both of them have had reactions after eating in restaurants and ordering like chicken. All it takes is for someone to use the same utensil on their chicken that was used on meat. It takes almost nothing to cause a reaction. In some cases it can get worse to include dairy. Sorry this was so long!
I also mentioned 'alpha gal syndrome' in the comments but your comment is more detailed. There are also rare genetic conditions that mean that people can't cope with the fats from meat. I have known two people with this condition, one became vegetarian and was fine. The other had parents who didn't believe in being vegetarian, he was always getting sick and needed to take enzymes to be able to digest meat. In his twenties he developed liver failure and died in surgery.
My mother was allergic to honey. She couldn't even eat a graham cracker without breaking out in hives. One of her friends didn't believe her because "nobody's allergic to honey! It's good for you"
I don't know why people think that vegetarian food is not healthy. If someone is supper malnourished, then it's not the best diet. But other than that it's great(I am more healthy now than before) . And u should never feed a vegetarian kid meat. Meat is not the only source of protein. If the kid eats plenty of lentils and soy, they are also great for protein.
Almost the very *second* I got pregnant with my first child, I developed a severe aversion to meat of any kind. I cannot explain it. The sight, smell, and taste of it made me gag. I found other sources for protein as I 'grew' what became my first daughter who has always been a near total vegetarian ( not a coincidence in my opinion! ;) )!
My only problem with the vegetarian 9-year-old is on a vegetarian diet it's extremely hard to get protein or enough protein I should say so I am worried about nutrition but other than that it's every human being's choice to live their best life I'm just hoping her parents cook her very protein rich vegetarian foods
I would imagine they have researched it, as it would be quite easy for parents of a kid that age to change her mindset if they really wanted to. But good parents allow there kids to have their own thoughts and feelings as long as it’s not bad for them.
Honestly it’s really easy to kill a child via malnutrition when you’re putting them on a vegetarian diet. Humans really weren’t meant to be on one and being able to survive as vegetarians requires active effort and a desire to do so. Which most kids don’t have.
Vegetarism or veganism is safe at any stage in life! No kid is harmed by not having to eat tortured pieces of dead animals that are full of antibiotics and other crap. Vitamin B12 is also lacking in meat which is why animals are fed vit B12 which omnis then eat, so no, it doesn't hurt to take the vitamin B12 directly via supplement instead of having to kill a living being for it

Ya know..... My wife gets frustrated with me because I just have a general distaste for people. I feel kinda bad; I wonder why I am like this.... Then I hear/read stories like the 3rd one and remember why I dont like people.
You know... that last story reminds me of me and many of my friends having their parent's religion shoved down their throats to the point that we all left home before we were 18. I was 16 when I left (though my Dad backed off when I was 13, unlike theirs), but a couple of the guys ran off at 15. No one stayed home past HS graduation.
I would told the lady who wanted the free couches but wanted delivered by the owner , I would told her I will delivered for $1000 and then see her responce.
I had a crazy psychiatrist who said no one can be allergic to Lithium and did not believe I got sick on people sue for charging people with Medicaid Services and pay too much money for her work she lost her practice here and in America so I think op has a right to that it is her child choice if she wants to go meatless
Sorry 1: pill/drug head logic. I've had a few in my family, that's the way their minds work. Everything is about them and they will do anything and use anyone for their next fix. I've been on the receiving end of it!
Story 3: and the bad neighbour was pregnant again when the car thing happened. So taking drugs while pregnant. That baby is going to go straight into foster car.
Anyone who doesn't have custody of their kids doesn't have custody for a reason. Be careful who you help. Being young, dumb, and way too nice is a bad combo. Never hesitate to stand your ground and defend yourself. Know what the law is and what you're allowed to say and do within it.
As the Karen walks away from the hearse situation, I would have said in my best ghost host voice, "There's always room for one more..." then a creepy laugh afterwards
Last story: Vegetarian isn't the healthiest choice for every person, but if her daughter is staying healthy, then it's fine. It is definitely NOT grandma's place to decide different. If the child was obviously becoming underweight or otherwise visibly unhealthy, then it would be time to talk about diet, but not if the girl is healthy. I'm sure Mom and Dad have had talks with her pediatrician about it, since it is a major dietary change for somebody that young, and I'm sure her pediatrician is keeping a watch over her health, as well. So, long story short (too late), but out grandma.
yes. But Im pretty sure they just have to expand their experience. I am from India, Karnataka, And MAJORITY of us are vegetarians. And there are so many DELICIOUS foods which are also healthy at the same time,which cost practically nothing, and barely takes any time. My serious suggestion to anyone who is becoming vegetarian is : Come to India, if you want, go to some ashram or relative you know. You will see how good vegetarian food can be
It'd probably be helpful to do blood tests every so often (like once a year or if the daughter starts getting lethargic and has noticeable mood changes) to check her iron/B12 levels.
@@srijanumesh5355 I'm just speaking as someone who has been low on iron and B12 separately even though I'm not vegetarian. The only noticeable symptoms I had were mouth ulcers (from lack of B12), its best to be safe than sorry
The last story: No the Monster in Law does not deserve a second chance. Not even a hint of the possibility of a second chance. She burned that bridge herself, why should others rebuild it for her? Forcing/tricking a kid to eat something s/he does not want to or does have allergies towards is one of the worst offenses you could do as a grandma. Trumped only by (sexually) abusing and molesting the kid.
Ooo... That last story! First, I have to make it clear that I LOVE brisket, ribs, and all other types of barbeque. I am very much a meat-eater. That said, I have several members of my family and friends that are Vegan, vegetarian, and/or on very strict diets. I have gotten really creative working around various diets when I have cookouts. My BBQ potato-onion patties are such a huge hit that I have to make enough for everyone, not just the veggie folks. Honestly, I never would have thought of coming up with new recipes had it not been for them. My tofu chili is pretty dang good too. Yeah, I still make all the meats but I will always be grateful for the new avenues for my cookouts. That MIL needs a serious reality check!
The last story reminded me of my family. I come from a Hungarian family on my mother's side. My grandmother is a great cook and baker. During family dinners, she would make Hungarian dishes. I have never liked Hungarian food and I would not eat them. My uncle and aunt would always yell at me that I am disrespecting my grandmother because I won't eat the food from her birth country. My grandmother got fed up and ended up yelling at my uncle and aunt to leave me alone and she had no issue with me not wanting to eat those dishes. After that, she always made sure to have a burger, or pasta, or chicken made for me. Never gave me a guilt trip about it or anything. Damn I miss her.
The last story: cut ties with MIL. We get to choose what lifestyle we want, she has no say and can't force another lifestyle onto her grandchildren. And people do grow out of allergies but not everyone, my dad has had his peanut allergy since he was a kid and he's in his 70s.
For story 3, my aunt did that exact thing to my mom years ago. She got pulled over for a DUI, and she gave the cops an old ID that was my mom's (her sister). My mom ended up having to go to court just to try and prove that it wasn't her who'd gotten the DUI.
@@prtfdc2 I picked up my friend from the airport that I hadn't seen in years and the first thing she said getting in my car was "OH GOD my nose sometimes randomly bleeds" as a fountain of blood comes gushing out and all over my car. We have been together happily for some time now and share a home and pup.
Story 1: the person decided that "free" included delivery... as most stores with big couches can arrange delivery. To her "verbal contract" statement, would have gone "What contract? What compensation are you giving me? As there was no compensation given to me, I am not obligated to provide the item and there is no contract."
MIL should be no contact with OP's children. After deceiving the daughter and parents about the food, and denying the reality or seriousness of peanut allergies in the younger son, she will definitely poison the son if allowed. Actually, it would be dangerous for anyone to eat anything that MIL has had access to.
Last story. You don’t even have to worry because giving her mother in law a second chance isn’t even an option unless and until she sincerely apologizes, admits she is wrong, changes her ways, and EARNS trust back. Even then because she lied you wouldn’t be able to trust her for a long while. But seeing that she won’t be giving a sincere apology any time soon, you don’t have to even worry about whether to not to eventually forgive or trust.
If someone asked if they could ride in my limo, the very first thing I would say is, "It's not a limo, it's a hearse." I wouldn't waste my time saying 'excuse me' or going into any other explanation.
Story #3 hey op you can get flavoured crickets at the dollar store, put them in a salad and give it to MIL and when she freaks out just be like “oh but you said meat was good for you” and continue to remind her about how this why you don’t make other people eat things they don’t want to eat!
As a vegetarian by choice, I do believe that children should eat at least some amount of meat because animal protein has a different effect on development than plant protein, especially with the brain. Even if it's something like fish or chicken once a week, that's better and healthier than no meat at all.
The part about her scoffing at the peanut allergy gave me chills as I recalled a story where one girls mother didn’t believe allergies and put some nut oil into a slice of cake to prove the allergies were all in her head. Thankfully somehow it was found out before she at the cake or she probably would’ve died!
With the second one, I can kind of relate. Our local undertaker is a friend of my parents; he’s very nice and was great when both my mother’s mother and then later father died. Shout out to all the undertakers like him out there! 👍
When my son was 6, he put his hand on his dad's shoulder and said, "Dad, it's not good to eat living things." Completely ruined my husband's steak dinner. Dog ate good that night though. Since then we haven't forced our son to eat meat or anything. Everything that he's eaten has been 100% his decision. He eats meat whenever he feels like it.
Mr. Fluff, the good friend having her reputation damaged by that horrible person with the mom and husband IS a walk through candyland compared to what my closest friend felt with from his ex wife

Honestly, CPS leaves kids in homes that are unsafe for far longer than they should. So, if kids have been removed, stay out of it and never give those people money.
Second OP should have called CPS immediately when she knew that the parents were spending money on pills and the kids were staying with her all the time
They've also sent them back to die at the hands of abusive parents because 'we have to preserve the family,' even taking them from loving foster parents that want to love them as their own children.
Yeah you gotta really try to lose your kids to CPS... Like, they don't take parenting rights from just anyone.
Damned if you do damn if you do not. People complain that DCFS/CPS is taking kids and then when they do take kids then people complain that it is an overreach and that CPS just wants to pocket the money. Sorry but even if CPS does pocket money for taking kids the investigators do not get the money.

I have a severe peanut allergy and I can 100% confirm that the grandmother in the last story is dangerous to leave the grandson with. When I was 4 or 5 my grandfather accidentally gave me peanut m&ms (he didn't realize that the yellow baggies were different, he thought it looked more fun than the normal brown ones, it was completely unintentional). Thankfully I hated the taste and only ate one, but that was enough to trigger severe vomiting, hives, and at some point my memory goes out and I'm not sure what happened. I'm not even sure if I went to the ER or not (my dad's a doctor and my mom is a retired RN, so it's possible they handled it, I don't remember) One peanut m&m did that. One. If I had eaten more I could've died before the ambulance even arrives. It also ruined chocolate for me because for years I didn't know it wasn't a normal m&m, but that's besides the point. While I disagree with the grandmother giving her granddaughter meat morally, I find it far more concerning that she doesn't take the grandson's allergy seriously. The meat issue was emotionally upsetting and still valid, but I am happy that this was the incident that happened rather than the little boy getting tricked into eating peanuts. Don't let that woman give him so much as one piece of candy, it could end up being his last...
P.S. I posted this as a reply originally but I feel it needs to be it's own comment so here it is.

@@ZMHammer Thank you 😊 I hope you are doing well too!
I am glad you are okay and that it wasn't done maliciously.
@@laurenmentink7401 Malicious is 10000000+ percent worse than accidental, both are terrifying in the moment when its happening to ya tho. I spent an evening in the ER because of someone (a trained nurse mind you) who refused to believe food allergies were a real thing put peanut butter in the chili we were having for a family dinner trying to "catch me in a lie", she even tried to stop me from going to the hospital yelling at everyone that i was faking it to make her look bad and that i wasn't really allergic and she should know since she was a nurse. Thankfully a neighbor ran me up to the hospital because with her ranting and snatching the phone off us (yes this was long enough ago we had a single landline downstairs, cell phones weren't quite a common thing yet) we couldn't call for an ambulance and it was faster to just get me in someone's car and GO while everyone else dealt with her nonsense.
If you have an allergy and anyone says to you they don't believe in allergies, that person is now a potential hazard in your environment who is a huge risk to you and through either neglect or deliberate action can and eventually will cause you to be exposed to your allergen.
@@TheMichigami My god, I hope she was arrested or had serious karma. Deliberately preventing someone from calling emergency services for life-saving treatment is basically attempted murder and she's a complete psycho that shouldn't be outside of a prison or a mental hospital.
Re: food choices and allergies: My grandchildren are lactose intolerant, each to a different degree, and one has several food allergies. I always check with their parents about anything I feed them. Always. Even if the children ask for something I clear it with one of their parents unless it is pre-approved.
That's the way to do it. Good for you. You sound like a good, caring grandparent.
@@jacklow9611 Thank you. I look at it as I am not their parent, and defer to the parents. That goes for everything.
I also am lactose and tolerant and worst of all growing up I was allergic to whey a preservative in like everything a baker managed make me like some.sort of tofu cake if I had any of this stuff I would have bad direah and vomit and back then it wasn't cheap to get special milk for me at all and I have another friend who can really only have soy milk because of how bad his is to dairy and stuff
You sound like a fantastic grandmother! Honestly would love a grandparent who pays that much attention, mine passed when I was 10 and then 13 and I miss them (I’m 30 now), and they had a very different attitude towards food. One over salted everything because she smoked 100 a day despite being told not to, and the other, knowing I had fish allergies, always said “you don’t have to like it, you just have to eat it”, “but I’m allergic”, “well go hungry then”. I miss them but they were terrible when it came to feeding me
@@sparrowstar3490 Thank you. I guess I learned a lot from my mother and mother-in-law. They stayed out of my marriage and parenting unless I asked. My son was 6 when my mother passed. Each of my grandchildren is lactose intolerant. The youngest is also allergic to soy. Meals are a challenge but the children understand their differences. My son and daughter-in-law are great parents.
OH NO! No no no! If that woman is already ignoring the food preferences of a child and doesn't believe in allergies, then do not trust her with those kids! I and my partner have food allergies and they are not to be laughed at. Allergies can KILL if ignored.
Selfish g-ma said: "Sometimes they grow out of them." Sure but U aren't their Dr. & U don't declare the status! So NO U Won't B Feeding Them Again! (I'd cut all contact) 👹↔g-ma
OP isn't wrong about worrying about mother in law's actions. If she gave the youngest child her food allergy, she would go into anaphylactic shock, if she doesn't have or administer an epinephrine within the time frame of when she ate the food. I say cut all ties, considering that the MIL could possibly endanger both of the kids. The MIL might not even call the ambulance for her grandchild going through anaphylactic shock.
@@LuvSn00py00 Yah I can hear her now, "No ambulance! It's just a phase she'll get over it! Kids these days, always throwing a tantrum to get what they want!"
People can also develop meat allergy, there are a couple of species of tick found in the US and Australia and being bitten by them can cause a serious meat allergy. Look up 'alpha gal syndrome'.
@@marshawargo7238
I'm not sure about outgrowing. In my childhood, I had an allergy against skin-toned band-aid. Not anymore. But it can be, that in those times there was something in it, which isn't now anymore.
The last story got me steamed in a bad way. Would you serve a Jew or a Muslim pork? A Hindu any meat? The nature of the preference doesn't matter. Put your foot down. If she can't even respect a choice based refusal to eat something, that woman will end up poisoning the child with the peanut allergy.
The answer is that that grandmother surely would...
Hey, Hindu people can eat any meat except beef. Pork is considered dirty so generally avoided but has no religious restrictions. Don't drag us into this without research. Infact most Hindu's dread the days they have to fast/eat vegetarian for pujas or other functions.
But nothing would piss any person religious or not if you sabotage our palate. McDonald's shelled out big money for using beef tallow in their fries in India.
@@glitched_out6589 my apologies, the Hindu girl I went to school with was from a completely vegetarian family. I should not have assumed that every Hindu was as such. I do think my point stands though.
@@daemon2426 No offence taken. In our religion there are castes and even region based sects. Some take the vegetarianism very seriously. But some of us enjoy that succulent spicy meat so so much 🍗🥩👍
Would discuss the origins of the banning of pork, but I would NEVER demand they eat it or try it. It actually does potentially have an interesting origin based on in-group signalling.
If anyone gave a child with peanut allergies anything with peanuts.. well that would be attempted murder
I call CPS if I saw that
@@richewilson6394 Luckly for people like myself who have life threatening allergies, said allergies are written in the patient's medical records.
Not just peanut allergies! Allergies to shellfish spring to my mind (I stop breathing, but other people have different reactions,) as well as certain molds/antibiotics! And before I forget, I'm closer to 60 than to 40!
Or actual manslaughter
Seems none of you have really seen someone with peanut allergies? Sure it bad or just say it really bad but called it murder is just exagarated. Defend on degree of allergies it may cause itchy skin, headache, sleepy, etc, but i not even sure if it possible to really kill someone with peanut allergies by feed them peanut
If MIL fed peanuts to grandchild, MIL would probably go to jail for being intentionally careless and endangering a child.
If you know someone has a food allergy, and they die after you give them that food, does that count as premeditated murder?
Or for manslaughter as peanut allergy does kill.
@@suzannepottsshorts that absolutely counts as murder. Willful ignorance or prideful stubbornness is no excuse for forcing or tricking someone into eating something they deathly allergic to. There was a story where a woman gave her son something that had his severe peanut allergen in it and he ended up in a coma. After he recovered, his belated birthday was being celebrated and his mom put peanuts in the birthday cake (luckily he didn’t get a chance to eat it before the crazy bitch confessed to the deed). Her ex-husband found out and flew in to a rage because she literally was going to kill OP just to prove he was faking the earlier incident. She was kicked out and was never allowed near OP again.
@@LunaP1 I remember hearing that same one not too long ago

4:57-5:03 I literally banged my head against my phone over that statement. this stupid dingdong actually thought that a hearse was a limousine🤦🏼♀️ I-I have no other words.
It blows my mind that there are still people who "don't believe" in allergies.
Like it was debatable. Like the kid doesn't want peanuts, so instead of throwing a tantrum they got swollen, and you have to drive them to the hospital, only because they want some attention.
Friend of mine didn't know he was allergic to prawns and had some when we went for seafood. We almost had a heart attack when the dude's throat started swelling like a bullfrog. Good thing we got him to a hospital in time
Having a type of dairy allergy, I relate to this so much. I *literally* have to have a reaction in front of people for them to believe me. Each time I was finally believed was when I didn't know the trigger food was in there (but it wasn't done to me deliberately)
Ex-Husband: 😮 "I thought you were exaggerating"
Uncle: 😮 "I thought you were making it up"
Prev Co-workers: 😮😮 "Omg she was right"
That's been the general gist of it, mine's a specific dairy so people are less inclined to believe it over a general dairy.
It's frustrating as hell
@@sufianramli8017 Good thing you made it on time.
@@shadowfoxx5317 I'm sorry you have to go through this. I can imagine it is horrible.
@@shadowfoxx5317 wow. That sounds horrible. So glad, though, that there are people who finally get it.
Now, I have a lot of allergies myself. So when someone tells me, I very specifically ask what they can and can't eat. Because I'd feel horrible if something happened because I gave someone food they are allergic to. I don't need prove. I believe people as soon as they say, no matter how ridiculous it may sound. The only doubt I'll ever had was when kids told me they were allergic to vegetables. Still, I always check with the parents, just to make sure.
(And I'm allergic to apples, for example. When I was a kid, I always told my parents my throat got itchy whenever I ate apples. My dad didn't believe me.
I took one apple from my grandmother's tree and ate half of it. We weren't even able to get home before my dad had to stop the car. I was coughing so hard I was nearly unable to breathe. Only then did he realize that I had been honest about it all the time. 😅 At least, it meant I was no longer forced to eat food I knew would give me a reaction)

Yeah, that's what I might
@@marshawargo7238 I have to disagree with your last statement. While CPS does an important job I know of cases where they acted solely on unsupported accusations that I'm in a position to know are false. However, CPS and the investigating police were uninterested in speaking to me and I tried to speak to them. Yeah, you don't want to call the "victim" a liar, but sometimes they are. I do agree with your first statement. Know who you're trying to help.
I feel so sorry for the child who can now never trust her grandmother, and she is old enough to realize this. What a traumatizing event.
When she first said limo, I was like is she for real? And then the owner’s response was epic.
The grandmother in that third story is horrifying. I'm vegetarian and not by choice. Most meat doesn't agree with me with chicken actually making me sick. Considering there are several people in my family with severe food allergies it's important for our dietary needs to be respected. Also allergies aren't something that can be brushed off. If my grandparents or anyone did this my parents would probably cut contact and definitely wouldn't be having any more meals around them.
Yeah, I’ve heard about people being meat-intolerant (like lactose but with meat) and it sounds like an awful thing to have to cope with.
I choose not to eat meat (except specific kinds of seafood), and because they've been cut from my diet for 17 years, any amount of those meats will actually make me sick. I remember when I was younger, I accidentally ate marinara sauce with beef and I remember being so sick that I wanted to throw up. This is because my body stopped creating enzymes that help digest things like meat, so it in turn upsets your entire biological ecosystem. Milk does the same thing. If I eat too much dairy, it also makes me extremely nauseous, so I know I'm not just overthinking it.
First story: There was no “Consideration” so that means there was no contract since a contract requires an exchange.
It’s because calling the police is the adult version of “I’ll tell Mom and Dad.” It’s always worked before… why wouldn’t it work this time? 🤦🏻♀️
That supposed friend with the kids was never a friend. More like a freeloader.
If my late MIL would've been like that I would have never trusted her to cook anything for my kids ever again! And ignoring a peanut allergy? Seriously? What world is that crazy woman living in? Um no way . OP is right for not trusting her MIL.
My ex in laws scoffed at my daughter's serious food intolerances when she was a tot. When she was 2, we cut ties and they didn't see her for 15 years. Obviously there was more to cutting ties than the diet issues, but it was just one minor check mark in a long laundry list of craziness.
Fun fact: Tampering with or misrepresenting food stuffs is a felony.
Wow. Not only is that extremely shady to give a vegetarian meat, and particularly a child vegetarian, but depending on how long she’s been vegetarian that could make her very sick. Yucky MIL.
So true. I'm glad my mother respects that I am a pescatarian. She does sometimes forget and offers me meat other than fish, but as soon as I give her "the look" she catches herself and apologizes.
As a toddler, my daughter almost made herself a vegetarian because she would turn away any meat. My wife and I were going to roll with it, but eventually she turned to the meat side when she asked for and tasted hot dog. *shrug*
The woman needed to go to jail (druggie). The mom feeding the kid meat was WAY over the line. I am a grandmother of 9 grandkids. Mine are now from 26 to 3, most in high school, college, and out. When they were little, I had boundaries their parents had laid down and I respected them. THAT is how you grandparent. I'm glad OP left the MIL out of things.
Story3: When the "friend" demanded OP tell the police she made a mistake, pity OP didn't respond with:
"The only mistake I made was trusting your sorry arse."
Be very careful about trusting the non-vegetarian mother-in-law. She has already shown you that she is willing to lie to your face to get her own way.
Exactly, NEVER allow her to take your kids without you or your SO, because if they are alone with her for lunch you might LOSE one permanently.
#4: mother and daughter should go no-contact with grandmother, and ESPECIALLY with the younger child!
Pescatarian myself, it is so disrespectful when people judge you for not eating chicken/red meat/etc. I’ve had cafeteria servers make fun of me and acquaintances try to blur the lines about amphibians to convince me to eat what I dont want to eat. I grew up this way and no one has the right to tell me what I should eat. Totally wrong on the MIL’s part
To me, that sounds just as disrespectful as a vegan trying to convince me to stop eating meat.
No judgement on dietary preferences, but women who have menses require iron, and most fish don't have a lot of iron. Make sure you get sufficient iron (with Vit C to make it bioavailable). Tabouli dish ticks a lot of boxes (parsley contains both iron and vit c)...(assumption from screen name that you are a female)
As vegan myself, yes, it's both disrespectful and annoying when people try to talk me to eat eggs, dairy or honey. Just no. I never forced anyone to follow my dietary decisions and would appreciate to be treated the same. It's everyone's personal choice what they put on their plate.

The MIL is a real piece of work. The child's parents should avoid having the MIL near the children at all costs due to her moronic ideas and total disregard to boundaries and *REAL* health issues.
Story 3: NEVER helps people to get their kids back. There's always a reason why that happened.
Yeah, best to appear to be supportive and remind about the guidelines CPS set. On the parent to show they deserve their kids back.
I was already upset with MIL about tricking the granddaughter. Preparing food for others is sacred to me,and I'm sure for many other chefs and/or parents, it's a thing of absolute trust. But then we bring in an allergy that she doesn't believe in and it's a whole new level. No, she does not deserve another chance ever. What if that second chance is loaded and battered in peanut oil?? No way!
Karens call the police whenever they dont get their way bc they truly think it's illegal to not do whatever they order others to do, not just what they want, need or say but ORDER. One of the biggest things about Karens i wasn't to know is why they think if a manager won't fire a customer they can call the police and the cop will make sure they get fired from a location they don't work at like cops have the authority to fire anybody from their job which is just ridiculously asignine 😂

Re: Veggie Kid
I think Daughter is a little young to be going veggie, but _as long as she's getting everything a growing body needs,_ her choice should be respected. If she's not, that's a matter for her doctor and parents, _not_ MIL.
Why is she “a little young” to become a vegetarian? My aunt & uncle are vegetarians and raised their kids to be vegetarian from day 1. I was impressed at how my cousins loved drinking soy milk & really loved eating yogurt as a before bed snack. (They were not vegan) They grew up eating so healthy & they loved the taste of it all. As a vegetarian myself, I was jealous, because I had to adjust my tastebuds, and my cravings, to my new diet. Eventually I did, and now I love all kinds of vegetarian food & soy & almond milks make a bowl of cereal taste better to me than dairy milk (it was weird what Amazon Fresh or Walmart grocery delivery would run out of at the height of Covid shortages - I’m on disability & don’t own a car, so grocery delivery is a necessity, especially since moving from Philly to S. Jersey.)
I was that age when I made the decision to be vegetarian. My parents supported my decision and helped me learn how to get all the nutrients I needed to be healthy.
There’s definitely not an age where kids need meat to survive. Any age is fine. Unless there’s an underlying medical condition where the kid needs meat to live, let her be vegetarian.
Also though, yes, make sure she’s getting the nutrients she needs. But it’s pretty easy to do that. Same as making sure you get all your nutrients in an omnivorous diet.
There is no age to become a vegetarian🤦🏻♀️ I am from india, and many of us are born and raised vegetarians, with no deficiency at all.
@@paradoxical_taco and you can better believe those children are going to have lifelong medical issues.

It is amazing how much of our world is made from animal byproducts.
I think she has a different definition of the word vegetarian.
Sounds like a vegan.
I have no problem with anyone who wants to go vegetarian or vegan. I only have a problem if they try to force their choices on me.
@@Battleship009 Their are different levels of "vegetarian", but if you don't eat anything with milk or eggs (or fish, etc) then you are Vegan....
My first job as a teenager was as a meat wrapper in a supermarket back in the day when they brought the meat in as sides and whole carcasses. They cut
the meat and I wrapped it. Well after a couple of weeks, seeing what it went through,was bad enough. The last straw was when my boss cut his hand open on the band saw. As blood poured out everywhere, he put a towel on his hand and said he'd stop by after work and get a few stitches at the hospital, they knew him. I asked what to do with all the meat that was covered in blood and he said "nothing, a little extra blood would hurt it". That's when I turned vegetarian!
As someone who has a food allergy that actually got worse as I got older, MIL in the last story gets to stuff it.
My mum actually suggested after I gave birth to my eldest that and I quote "nanny will take her to get her ears pierced, give you guys some rest" nah uh... Nope. Outright told her if she did I would press charges for assault
Peanut allergies are nothing to sneeze at
I have no clue why this phrase sounds like a joke whenever I hear it.
I remember growing up that they said that spaghetti sauce had peanuts in it
@@brianaschmidt910 it is supposed to be funny even though it’s used in a non funny way you’re basically saying not to make fun of something while making fun of it and I’ve never really understood the point of it it’s just habit
@@jamessparks7728 no I mean the phrase itself. Like a doctor never eating apples because "it keeps the doctor away"
"Sure he can ride, but he's gotta get a nice, pine box. Fuggedaboudit!"
I know the vegetarian story is about the MIL. But what caused a 9 year old to want to be vegetarian? It sounds like she was influenced by her friends sister who told her some stories to scare her. Im just saying. Also a vegetarian diet can be very dangerous and unhealthy for a 9 year old without parents who track her protein. I imagine op was doing this but it wasnt necessary to the story so not mentioned.
I was about to say a child needs meat it can be bad for them
Story 3: That someone decides to have issues with personal decisions about what they eat and even more that they scoff at allergies... I would have totally not have gone there to eat.
Mistaken or not, you don't just go up to a limo and demand a free ride, because, your kid .....!!!
I'm going to make another comment, because more people need to know about this. There is a disease called "alpha gal"
It is caused by the tick bite of a lone star tick. I have 2 friends that have this. Aloha gal causes a Meat allergy. This is an alkergy to All mammalian meat. One friends reaction is literally life snd death because he starts having trouble bresthing. The other friends reaction is a very bad rash. Be careful out there people.
Both of them have had reactions after eating in restaurants and ordering like chicken. All it takes is for someone to use the same utensil on their chicken that was used on meat. It takes almost nothing to cause a reaction. In some cases it can get worse to include dairy. Sorry this was so long!
I also mentioned 'alpha gal syndrome' in the comments but your comment is more detailed.
There are also rare genetic conditions that mean that people can't cope with the fats from meat.
I have known two people with this condition, one became vegetarian and was fine. The other had parents who didn't believe in being vegetarian, he was always getting sick and needed to take enzymes to be able to digest meat. In his twenties he developed liver failure and died in surgery.
My mother was allergic to honey. She couldn't even eat a graham cracker without breaking out in hives. One of her friends didn't believe her because "nobody's allergic to honey! It's good for you"
It's a beautiful morning! Have a wonderful day, Fluff and Stevo! ❤️
I don't know why people think that vegetarian food is not healthy. If someone is supper malnourished, then it's not the best diet. But other than that it's great(I am more healthy now than before) . And u should never feed a vegetarian kid meat. Meat is not the only source of protein. If the kid eats plenty of lentils and soy, they are also great for protein.
Yes!!! I'm not vegetarian or vegan, but just like us meat eaters it's all about balance. Balance is the key to any eating lifestyle choices.
Almost the very *second* I got pregnant with my first child, I developed a severe aversion to meat of any kind. I cannot explain it. The sight, smell, and taste of it made me gag. I found other sources for protein as I 'grew' what became my first daughter who has always been a near total vegetarian ( not a coincidence in my opinion! ;) )!
My only problem with the vegetarian 9-year-old is on a vegetarian diet it's extremely hard to get protein or enough protein I should say so I am worried about nutrition but other than that it's every human being's choice to live their best life I'm just hoping her parents cook her very protein rich vegetarian foods
They probably do. They seem good parents, so I do believe they read themselves in on what a healthy vegetarian lifestyle intales
I would imagine they have researched it, as it would be quite easy for parents of a kid that age to change her mindset if they really wanted to.
But good parents allow there kids to have their own thoughts and feelings as long as it’s not bad for them.
Honestly it’s really easy to kill a child via malnutrition when you’re putting them on a vegetarian diet. Humans really weren’t meant to be on one and being able to survive as vegetarians requires active effort and a desire to do so. Which most kids don’t have.
Vegetarism or veganism is safe at any stage in life! No kid is harmed by not having to eat tortured pieces of dead animals that are full of antibiotics and other crap.
Vitamin B12 is also lacking in meat which is why animals are fed vit B12 which omnis then eat, so no, it doesn't hurt to take the vitamin B12 directly via supplement instead of having to kill a living being for it

Look at these wonderful vegan parents who forced their child to have a vegan diet. It totally didn’t result in long term negative effects 🙃
That last story: THE MOM IS NOT WRONG! SHE IS PROTECTING HER DAUGHTERS MENTAL HEALTH AND HER SONS PHYSICAL!!!! THE MIL COULD KILL HER GRANDSON!!!
Ya know..... My wife gets frustrated with me because I just have a general distaste for people. I feel kinda bad; I wonder why I am like this.... Then I hear/read stories like the 3rd one and remember why I dont like people.
You know... that last story reminds me of me and many of my friends having their parent's religion shoved down their throats to the point that we all left home before we were 18. I was 16 when I left (though my Dad backed off when I was 13, unlike theirs), but a couple of the guys ran off at 15. No one stayed home past HS graduation.
For the third story, that's no friend, that's a leech.
More like a lamprey...
I would told the lady who wanted the free couches but wanted delivered by the owner , I would told her I will delivered for $1000 and then see her responce.
Dang this is the fastest I've seen a video
Same.
I had a crazy psychiatrist who said no one can be allergic to Lithium and did not believe I got sick on people sue for charging people with Medicaid Services and pay too much money for her work she lost her practice here and in America so I think op has a right to that it is her child choice if she wants to go meatless
Sorry 1: pill/drug head logic. I've had a few in my family, that's the way their minds work. Everything is about them and they will do anything and use anyone for their next fix. I've been on the receiving end of it!
That's kinda funny that the cop's family needed a couch, maybe it worked out for a reason
Story 3: and the bad neighbour was pregnant again when the car thing happened. So taking drugs while pregnant. That baby is going to go straight into foster car.
Anyone who doesn't have custody of their kids doesn't have custody for a reason. Be careful who you help. Being young, dumb, and way too nice is a bad combo. Never hesitate to stand your ground and defend yourself. Know what the law is and what you're allowed to say and do within it.
As the Karen walks away from the hearse situation, I would have said in my best ghost host voice, "There's always room for one more..." then a creepy laugh afterwards
Last story: Vegetarian isn't the healthiest choice for every person, but if her daughter is staying healthy, then it's fine. It is definitely NOT grandma's place to decide different. If the child was obviously becoming underweight or otherwise visibly unhealthy, then it would be time to talk about diet, but not if the girl is healthy. I'm sure Mom and Dad have had talks with her pediatrician about it, since it is a major dietary change for somebody that young, and I'm sure her pediatrician is keeping a watch over her health, as well. So, long story short (too late), but out grandma.
yes. But Im pretty sure they just have to expand their experience. I am from India, Karnataka, And MAJORITY of us are vegetarians. And there are so many DELICIOUS foods which are also healthy at the same time,which cost practically nothing, and barely takes any time.
My serious suggestion to anyone who is becoming vegetarian is : Come to India, if you want, go to some ashram or relative you know. You will see how good vegetarian food can be
It'd probably be helpful to do blood tests every so often (like once a year or if the daughter starts getting lethargic and has noticeable mood changes) to check her iron/B12 levels.
@@tammymac6067 not necessary unless there is behaviour changes.
@@srijanumesh5355 I'm just speaking as someone who has been low on iron and B12 separately even though I'm not vegetarian. The only noticeable symptoms I had were mouth ulcers (from lack of B12), its best to be safe than sorry
@@tammymac6067 well thats true. Shouldnt everyone do that no matter the diet?
The last story:
No the Monster in Law does not deserve a second chance. Not even a hint of the possibility of a second chance.
She burned that bridge herself, why should others rebuild it for her?
Forcing/tricking a kid to eat something s/he does not want to or does have allergies towards is one of the worst offenses you could do as a grandma. Trumped only by (sexually) abusing and molesting the kid.
Ooo... That last story! First, I have to make it clear that I LOVE brisket, ribs, and all other types of barbeque. I am very much a meat-eater. That said, I have several members of my family and friends that are Vegan, vegetarian, and/or on very strict diets. I have gotten really creative working around various diets when I have cookouts. My BBQ potato-onion patties are such a huge hit that I have to make enough for everyone, not just the veggie folks. Honestly, I never would have thought of coming up with new recipes had it not been for them. My tofu chili is pretty dang good too. Yeah, I still make all the meats but I will always be grateful for the new avenues for my cookouts. That MIL needs a serious reality check!
The last story reminded me of my family. I come from a Hungarian family on my mother's side. My grandmother is a great cook and baker. During family dinners, she would make Hungarian dishes. I have never liked Hungarian food and I would not eat them. My uncle and aunt would always yell at me that I am disrespecting my grandmother because I won't eat the food from her birth country. My grandmother got fed up and ended up yelling at my uncle and aunt to leave me alone and she had no issue with me not wanting to eat those dishes. After that, she always made sure to have a burger, or pasta, or chicken made for me. Never gave me a guilt trip about it or anything. Damn I miss her.
That last story? This came from an AITA Reddit entry! Oh wow… yeah, that one was wild.
The last story: cut ties with MIL. We get to choose what lifestyle we want, she has no say and can't force another lifestyle onto her grandchildren. And people do grow out of allergies but not everyone, my dad has had his peanut allergy since he was a kid and he's in his 70s.
For story 3, my aunt did that exact thing to my mom years ago. She got pulled over for a DUI, and she gave the cops an old ID that was my mom's (her sister). My mom ended up having to go to court just to try and prove that it wasn't her who'd gotten the DUI.
The doctor told me that I keep having nose bleeds because I'm picking my nose either too much or not enough.
I get nose bleeds from to much school work or work. I still remember the look on my wife's face when she first saw it
@@prtfdc2 I picked up my friend from the airport that I hadn't seen in years and the first thing she said getting in my car was "OH GOD my nose sometimes randomly bleeds" as a fountain of blood comes gushing out and all over my car. We have been together happily for some time now and share a home and pup.
@@ViolentVibrator That happens to me, there is something wrong with my bleed, my bleed is like water
Electric heat in houses is very dry and some children develop dried out mucus membrane and nose bleeds occur often
Story 1: the person decided that "free" included delivery... as most stores with big couches can arrange delivery. To her "verbal contract" statement, would have gone "What contract? What compensation are you giving me? As there was no compensation given to me, I am not obligated to provide the item and there is no contract."
MIL should be no contact with OP's children. After deceiving the daughter and parents about the food, and denying the reality or seriousness of peanut allergies in the younger son, she will definitely poison the son if allowed. Actually, it would be dangerous for anyone to eat anything that MIL has had access to.
darkfluff is the best part of my day
I was in another video?! Thank you so much!!!
Last story. You don’t even have to worry because giving her mother in law a second chance isn’t even an option unless and until she sincerely apologizes, admits she is wrong, changes her ways, and EARNS trust back. Even then because she lied you wouldn’t be able to trust her for a long while. But seeing that she won’t be giving a sincere apology any time soon, you don’t have to even worry about whether to not to eventually forgive or trust.
If someone asked if they could ride in my limo, the very first thing I would say is,
"It's not a limo, it's a hearse." I wouldn't waste my time saying 'excuse me' or going into any other explanation.
Story #3 hey op you can get flavoured crickets at the dollar store, put them in a salad and give it to MIL and when she freaks out just be like “oh but you said meat was good for you” and continue to remind her about how this why you don’t make other people eat things they don’t want to eat!
Story 3: With friends like that woman, you don't need any enemies.
As a vegetarian by choice, I do believe that children should eat at least some amount of meat because animal protein has a different effect on development than plant protein, especially with the brain. Even if it's something like fish or chicken once a week, that's better and healthier than no meat at all.
Right. Like when people think their carnivoire cats should become vegetarian. Those people do not deserve the love of a cat.
The part about her scoffing at the peanut allergy gave me chills as I recalled a story where one girls mother didn’t believe allergies and put some nut oil into a slice of cake to prove the allergies were all in her head. Thankfully somehow it was found out before she at the cake or she probably would’ve died!
With the second one, I can kind of relate. Our local undertaker is a friend of my parents; he’s very nice and was great when both my mother’s mother and then later father died. Shout out to all the undertakers like him out there! 👍
Story 3, MIL is crazy. Either take her to therapy or cut contact between her and your child, OP.
When my son was 6, he put his hand on his dad's shoulder and said, "Dad, it's not good to eat living things." Completely ruined my husband's steak dinner. Dog ate good that night though.
Since then we haven't forced our son to eat meat or anything. Everything that he's eaten has been 100% his decision. He eats meat whenever he feels like it.
Man I love dark fluff SO much he’s the best part of my day this is exactly what I look forward to each day
6:30 Funny how he said girlfriend instead of godfather
First time being early for once. Man these entitled people 😂 they know how to annoy and entertain
Yeah that last one! This is why I quit helping people...
Nope! Never again!
Mr. Fluff, the good friend having her reputation damaged by that horrible person with the mom and husband IS a walk through candyland compared to what my closest friend felt with from his ex wife
"Sure you can ride in the 'limousine'! Gotta body bag on ya? No, wait... I got one in the back... You wanna ride too?"
