Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

[Cadence]

My daughter has her second ear infection in a row (I don't recall how many overall) and the stronger antibiotic tastes terrible. Getting her to take it is becoming increasingly difficult. I'm currently not doing any of the things she wants to do until she takes the medicine, but I don't feel like this is the best move, parenting wise. I've mixed it with Zarbees, which is a honey-based cough suppressant, but she still resists.

Still, I think I'm doing better than we did last night, when she got so upset at us forcing the medicine on her that she threw up. So, yay, progress...?

Me and my sister used to have them a lot. And my son did starting very young and repeatedly. I hope you find something that works!

(For us it was eventually getting tubes in. and I don't remember if I ever had any after that (certainly not many) - although back then they commonly took the adenoids out too. With just tubes, I'm not sure if my son has had more than one or two in the past decade-plus).

Ah yes, just what I wanted to see in my Inbox.

"ChatGPT required Training."

Edit: Yep, as annoying as I expected.

Hope she gets better. I used to be* a quite sickly child, so I can empathise. To date I still remember fondly the flavor of the antiobiotic they would give me.
*As opposed to being a kinda sickly grown-up. Would be healthier if I had more space and time to actually be sick instead of dragging it out with over the counter medicines.

I am deeply suspicious whenever I encounter someone who thinks they're absolutely killing it as a parent.

I'm absolutely killing It as a parent. I mean, I haven't read Five Children and It but I've seen the It movie, and we don't need that in our house!

I wouldn't say I'm killing it, but I sure have nailed being a totally awesome badass uncle. At least that's what I keep telling others.

The number of people who think they have telepathy is too damn high.

I knew you would say that.
