Flu Vaccines

[AGDee]

I see this as a bigger issue you're going to have to deal with for years to come. Rather than debate the safety of this vaccine, you need to let her know, tactfully, that you and your husband will be making all medical decisions about your child and that, unless you seek out her advice, her advice is not welcome. It may be better if HE tells her so it's not coming from the Daughter In Law. Additionally, I'd probably stop letting her know any of that kind of information, for the sake of family peace. Or, when she does give advice, simply smile and say "I'll take that under consideration" and move on.

The stuff she told you about the vaccine is BS, but you knew that, or could find that out yourself!

Excellent point. My own sister had to defriend her MIL from Facebook because she was getting way too pushy about things! You might want to consider limiting what she can see on your profile. Just an idea.
