The family’s beloved babysitter was fired out of the blue. After she called 911 in a fear about their baby, she did this terrible thing.Recently, someone on Reddit shared a story that a lot of people are interested in. As a new member of Reddit, the Original Poster (OP) told a story about his wife, their trusted babysitter, and their youngest son’s medical emergency.

Babysitter Daisy has been taking care of the couple’s two boys and daughter for years. They trust her. Daisy started babysitting when she was a young teen, and her mother watched over her. She was 16 years old now and had grown into her role. The kids, especially the older two, loved her. The family’s youngest boy, who was only 7 months old, wasn’t close to her yet because of his age. “But he seems pretty content when he’s with her,” OP said.

This past week, Daisy offered to watch the kids from 3:30 to 6 p.m. while the daycare was closed for repairs. OP got home early and saw his wife yelling at Daisy. Daisy was crying and kept saying she was sorry. Initially unsure of the reason, OP said, “I asked my wife what was going on and all she did was just start yelling that Daisy had cost us a bunch of money, my first thought was that she’d broken something, but my wife wasn’t telling me what it was.”

Daisy cried and ran out of the house while OP’s spouse was fighting. He went to the other room to give the mother of his children time to cool down. OP went to another room to comfort his crying kids while their mom was yelling at their babysitter. OP’s wife told him that Daisy had called 911 after an episode involving their youngest son, who has a disease that can cause him to hold his breath.

Things had calmed down by then. Even though these events are usually not dangerous, they can make the child pass out for a short time.The person in question said that Daisy had never babysat the couple’s youngest son before, but they had faith in her abilities because she had done it before with their daughter when she was a baby.

At the heart of the argument is a major mistake: OP’s mother, who had been taking care of the kids earlier that day, forgot to tell Daisy about the child’s illness and how to handle it. When Daisy saw that the child was having a breath-holding spell, she called 911 out of worry, not knowing that the condition was harmless. Because of this choice, an ambulance was sent, which the OP’s wife thought was pointless and expensive.

She was so mad that she fired Daisy right away and wouldn’t pay her for her work. She even told her she would call the cops and not come back to their house ever. Since then, the event has turned into a major argument between the OP and his wife, which has led to hurtful words and the wife leaving for a short time to stay with her mother. While OP thinks Daisy did the right thing given the situation, this shows that people have different opinions on how the babysitter should have handled the problem.
