Problem was simply that the mother did NOT take the problem seriously enough. She would skip nebulizer treatments when I wasn't working, allow her boyfriend to smoke around the daughter with asthma, and even allowed her to have a pet, all or which made her symptoms worse.<BR/><BR/>The pediatrician would call the mother at work asking her to come to the hospital or the doctor's office when I had to bring the daughter in for asthma but the mother stayed at work.<BR/><BR/>It's not that she didn't love her daughter. She didn't understand the severity of the issue. Nebulizer treatments were time consuming and difficult (daughter couldn't have steriods in her eyes so we covered her eyes with bandanas)and I felt that the mom just didn't take precautions and treatment seriously.<BR/>Wisconsin NannyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-773373869463725905.post-73463877838961141782009-02-20T11:14:00.000-05:002009-02-20T11:14:00.000-05:00I disagree with the over use of antibiotics.

The child has ear infections and the pediatrician has explained using antibiotics makes the child immune to them. I really think that's what is going on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
