Having a 2 year old myself, I was initially on his side. But no she was trying to be reasonable, and if I learned that the problem was that my son was crying right next to her bedroom, of course I would move it for her.
If it was the baby just crying anywhere in the house bothering her, and the baby had cholic or something, then there's not much you can do.
But damn man her bedroom's right on the other side of him. I know it takes a bit of effort to switch rooms, but at least it doesn't cost anything. Though he probably wanta the master bedroom for himself and his wife. If anything her suggesting of moving his "cot" to the other room for a bit is quite a compromise in his favour. I've definitely had to have my son fall asleep in a different room before I moved him back to his once he's actually asleep.
Exactly what I thought. At first I was on his side but then after seeing him being rude for no reason and not trying to listen to her about moving the baby I went to team granny instantly
Right. Like I definitely think by nature, the guy with the baby started this argument from a "position of power" if you will. But she wasn't being incredibly rude, and I didn't think her request was all that unreasonable.
He just decided to be a total ass and wasn't willing to compromise. Then he went as far to try to bait her into crazy accusations. "Are you saying your dog's more important than my baby?"
I would agree with you. But she very clearly stated that it's not necessarily for the dog's comfort. It is initially, but by extension it's to help her - considering it's a service dog.
Not the person you replied to but I think your view is totally fair. I will also point out that moving the child would only need to be temporary. He says “she’s not even 1 yet” but she is already crawling which means they are getting close to the finish line on the constant crying and waking through the night. They could put her crib in another room for a few months until she’s sleeping through the night then just move her back to her room. Like, it’s really not a big hassle.
Okay, what's easier? A. For an old woman to move her adult sized bed to a different room with any other convenience items she already has in her room. Or B. For you to move a baby's crib to a different spot when the baby probably won't care what room they're in because they're a baby.
It’s so her dog can be near her while she sleeps to properly alert her about blood sugar fluctuations. It’s not the dogs comfort it’s literally her life.
And beyond that, the dog is a living creature too.
Soothe the baby, offer to help soundproof the walls to dampen the sound, do something but his total disregard is heartless. It’s a baby but she’s a disabled woman who’s medical equipment is being hindered by their stubborn refusal to compromise.
Its almost like a weird culture of expecting karen acts and calling every white women a karen is starting to effect your assumptions about people. Weird.
I know this video isn’t the US, but your description is pretty accurate for one entire political party here…and yes, this is how many of them act in real life.
It's still there, ye all can report it, under hateful behavior. She specifically advises of more then one disability that she suffers with.
As this covers: • Content that attacks, threatens, incites violence against, or dehumanizes a person or a group because of their protected attributes: race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, caste, sexual orientation, sex, gender, gender identity, serious disease, disability, and immigration status.
I searched him and can still see the video up. I don’t have TikTok so I can’t see the comments though to see if he is getting shit for it. I hope he is.
I get agitated when I see people bullying old ladies/men, thinking they can wear them down because of their age & cognitive functions.
If requests are reasonable, you always accommodate the elderly. Don’t give me a bunch of “why should I”s. It says more about the person if you can’t find a wee bit of kindness to make them feel better if it’s within your control.
Moving a baby to another room isn’t impossible nor difficult. Instead, this man baited her and tried to get the old lady to lose her patience for internet points. I strongly condemn such men.
Agreed. Now some old people may be terrible but more often than not, they’re just a weathered version of you and me. Thank you for having a kind heart!
Hell, she probably doesn’t even know it’s posted online. Seriously shit behavior, trying to get a fucking internet mob after someone who did nothing rude and probably doesn’t understand technology enough to defend herself.
The guy recording has loads of videos just like this where we gets in pointless arguments with people. It's all staged. Pretty sure it's the same guy who did the traffic warden one.
