Some parents have interesting beliefs, dont they?
No judgment; you do you!
Because most of the time, these quirky ideas are harmless.
But when they cross the line into a dangerous territory, its a different story.
Like one Redditorsexwho decided modern medicine is a scam, saying sunscreen is more dangerous than the actual sun.
According to her, sunscreen causes cancer, and she has banned their 7-year-old daughter from using it.
Now, any rational person would tell you thatAussie summersare brutal.
The UV index is so intense that standing outside unprotected is basically a one-way ticket to Sunburn City.
It was so bad that even the grandparents were threatening to call child services.
And what did mom have to say about it?
I told you to stay in the shade.
I dont know about you, but Id be furious at this point.
And so was our dad.
Hats and shade help, sure, but theyre not a magic force field.
Communication, consistency, and picking your battles wisely.
So, whats next for our dad?
The sun doesnt play around, and neither should parents when it comes to protecting their kids.
