We all know the importance of having a good doctor, especially for our children. But what happens when a doctor seems to dismiss a child’s problems? One mom found herself in this exact situation, as her 6-year-old son’s doctor constantly brushed off her concerns about his behavioral issues. Frustrated and tired of being ignored, she finally reported the doctor. Now, the internet is divided: is she a concerned mom or just another Karen?
