Take the Long Road.....take the long road

This seems to be SD's motto and words she lives by.  Because SD refuses to listen to anyone regarding anything and take the long road...EVERY SINGLE TIME.

ah.....once again I am happy not my circus not my monkey.

I have written before SD has some bad skin issues.  She sees a dermatologist about it.....on DH's dime.  Despite hearing what she needed to from a professional.  (ya know someone that went to school upwards of 8 years)...she listens to Beaver and Tik Tok.  Ugh.......

SD saw the dermatogist last week.  He commented he would have expected a better outcome from the treatment he prescribed.  He asked SD how often she followed his instructions...she replied about 50% of the time.   He looked her in the face and said...well that exlplains why you got a 50% percent improvement and not 100%.  DH said he almost busted out laughing when the dermatologist told her that.

Come to find out SD has been following whatever tik tok video she can find on skin care...and Beaver buys her whatever product SD sees on Tik Tok that might work.  Spoiler...they don't work.  SD also failed to inform the dermatologist of all the cray cray stuff she has been trying on her face

So..this is just like everything else in her life...instead of listening to people that have an eduction and know..she follows random people.

DH decided that he would stop the dermatologist appointments and let SD take the long road to healing her face.

Yes, I was going to say - time to stop paying for the dermatologist.  She will regret it later, but oh well.

Dh said no need to continue....she will probably end up with scaring but hey that's on her. I led her to the water but I cannot make her drink.

My BD15 breaks out but refuses to wash her face regularly or wash her sheets and pillows regularly.  Her GP did prescribe her some fash wash and lotion that BD15 uses from time to time and I told her that's why I won't take her to the dermatologist when she only half a$$ takes care of her skin.

Now Spawn who might get a pimple on occasion screamed to Meth Mouth she needed to see a dermatologist regularly for her acne.  DH refused and the issue was taken to court.  Meth Mouth won and was able to take Spawn to a dermatologist.  The stipulation was she would foot the bill and she would pay for all treatments.  Well she opted for a Dermo who was not in our network and he prescribed her cleansers that were not covered because get this you could purchase them over the counter.  I think she only saw the dermo twice on Meth Mouth's dime and they didn't end up getting any of the cleansers since they weren't covered and they refused to buy over the counter.  So instead Spawn ended up using that Proactive crap that is awful.

My SGD, a 29yo mother of a 1yo and a TEACHER, chooses not to be vaccinated for covid because on Tik Tok she read that it causes fertility issues.  Never mind what the medical community says.....smh.

Why pay, and spend time takinking her to a DH if she id not doing what DR wants.  Let Beaver take care of her medical issues.  Just hope Tik Tok has good birth control information
