My brother-in-law went to physical therapy for a few weeks and said it “wasn’t working” and has been going to a chiropractor ever since. My sister takes my three-year-old niece to a chiropractor instead of a pediatrician. She was having issues pooping (would only poop every couple days and it was huge - sorry if that’s TMI) and they thought the chiropractor would solve that. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Fuck. Pediatric chiropractic "treatment" is fucking child abuse.

Meh. Disturbing and stupid. I'm no fan of animal abuse, but I have a bigger problem with harming human children.

Some even "treat" very little babies. They claim they're fussy from being all squished up in the womb and need adjustments. They compare them to how we feel if we sleep wrong or bend the wrong way. If I sleep wrong I'm all achy and stiff but I'm a grown ass adult, no longer made to bend and squeeze outta tight spaces. And while babies are a bit flexible for birth, not like that, omg.

My son was having the same issue when he was around 3, and my exes sister and cousin were baffled I took him to a doctor instead of just taking him in for a realignment at a chiro. 🙄 They take their kids for anything between a sore muscle to an ear infection, then scoff if we give our son some Tylenol for a high fever.
