Am I in the wrong?

So my MIL and SIL came for a visit, and both my little girls had a rash. Now I told both of them that the girls had been seen to and I had been told it was a viral as they was asking. Now they decide to take it upon themselves to take both girls to a pharmacist without my permission or prior knowledge that they were planning this. My 3 year old has autisim and is severely freaked by Dr's or pharmacists she hates people touching her. Now they go around this by telling us they had to go chemist for themselves and when I relised what they was doing I got really defencive as they have never really treated me with any respect but this to me over stepped the mark as my 3 year old had a HUGE meltdown due to the stress and change for her. Am I in the wrong for stopping them from seeing my kids until they learn to respect boundaries?

That’s terrible that they went over your head for a second opinion, why didn’t they believe that you, the mother, was telling the truth about your own children? 😵‍💫 I don’t blame you for stopping them from seeing your kids until they learn boundaries, I would have done the same thing.

I'd be so mad

I would do the same

I would go off on them for sure they don’t respect you

This is wrong on so many levels they have not respected you or listened to you and to put your autistic daughter in a situation she didn't need to be in and cause a meltdown has made me mad. This is coming from a mum with autistic children and being autistic myself. So no your not wrong to be angry/mad.

Urgh that is horrible behaviour!! I would be absolutely livid

Disgusting behaviour on their part, implying they dont think you are capable of looking after your daughter. I would stop contact too until they sincerely apologise and learn to be respectful.

@Elizabeth 100% they don't as after when I got upset my MIL claimed she has the same rights as me and that i am just a child!!

@Hayley I try to limit taking her to the dr as much as I can due to her meltdowns, and to make it worse, I had taken to the Dr's the day before they took her to the pharmacy! So she had 2 trips to a place she didn't like within 48 hours!! And all my MIL was saying is it's fine while pushing her toward the pharmacist i had to leave, and my partner had a kick off and told him he was ungrateful!

Yeah it's not on.

I understand my youngest has a fear of drs too. That's disgusting behaviour you know your daughter best and fir your partner to kick off isn't good either. It was too much for your daughter. I also avoid places my youngest doesn't like.

If someone said they have the same rights as me it’s a wrap

Your kids your rules!

She’s got the same rights as you? Is she delirious? Is she on drugs? You are absolutely not in the wrong x

100% cut off until they can understand boundaries. They put your baby in a very stressful situation that didn’t even need to happen in the first place!

I WOULD BE LIVID!!! I have some family members who try to step in and go overboard when it comes to MY son and so when we were at the local hospital I had asked if they could make a mark in his online my chart that only his father and I were able to bring him to the hospital

I'd call the cops .

i hit yes on accident 😩

I’d be furious. I’d also file a complaint to the pharmacy for evaluating a child without parents consent when it wasn’t a life threatening situation.
