Every parent wants to make sure their child is the happiest, the healthiest, and becomes the most successful person in the whole world. This requires them to go through a process of parenting or upbringing which can be really challenging and requires a lot of patience. There are some standards of parenting that every parent has to go through with their child-like recognizing which cry means what, feeding the baby timely, changing the nappies timely, and, very importantly, getting them vaccinated for all diseases as prescribed, and doing it on time. If you are a parent who doesn’t believe in vaccines and considers them “poison” you might as well not birth a child because you would be jeopardizing their life to the point of no return.
Something similar happened in the story shared by Reddit user u/bookluvr83 whose ex-wife was an anti-vaxxer. Their daughter was born prematurely and her immune system was compromised by birth. After watching her progress well and getting healthy the doctors allowed OP and his ex to get their daughter vaccinated.
The ex played a drama by agreeing at first to do it if she gets to take their daughter to the doctor. She told OP she had gotten their daughter vaccinated but it was a lie because a while later their daughter got sick again due to chicken pox, a disease she had apparently been vaccinated for.

1. Oh my god, this could be dangerous…Let’s find out what happened.
Via u/bookluvr83
2. One of the reasons why OP split up with his ex was that he was an anti-vaxxer. This was an issue because their daughter born was immunocompromised.
Via u/bookluvr83
3. Both parents had 50-50 custody of their daughter because of her condition.

4. After observing good progress, doctors gave OP’s daughter a go to get vaccinated. Being an anti-vaxxer, the ex went crazy and even threatened to take OP to court if he vaccinated their daughter.
Via u/bookluvr83
5. During this time OP got a new job that paid quite well. So he decided to get his daughter admitted to a private school that was specific for immunocompromised students.

6. The school though, required, the student to be fully vaccinated to the limit. OP’s ex took him to court on this when he tried to get her vaccinated but the decision did not come in her favor.

7. The ex agreed on one condition, that she gets to take their daughter to get vaccinated.
Via u/bookluvr83
8. Their daughter finally got vaccinated and everything was going great until recently she got sick to the point she had to be rushed to the hospital directly from her school.
Via u/bookluvr83
9. She had contracted chicken pox even though she had been vaccinated for it.
Via u/bookluvr83
10. What secret is she talking about?
Via u/bookluvr83
11. Oh dear, OP’s ex did not get their daughter vaccinated the day she said she had got it done.
Via u/bookluvr83
12. OP called the doctor who confirmed his ex’s lie that she never came in for any vaccination.
Via u/bookluvr83
Was this woman out of her mind? We don’t know what happened to the daughter yet, I hope she is not in danger and progresses towards good health. I am going to say it, OP’s ex basically wanted to k*ll their daughter, that’s exactly what she tried to do by not getting her vaccinated. This anti-vax culture is so terrible, man. I feel so infuriated right now. Does this woman have any idea how risky could this be for their daughter? Would she take responsibility if anything goes wrong?
I cannot wait to know what happened next. Scroll down below to continue reading!
13. OP did not like what his ex did. He told his daughter not to share with mommy yet that he knows the truth.
Via u/bookluvr83
14. OP wants to make his ex suffer for what she did but is uncertain about the approach to take.
Via u/bookluvr83
Here’s an updated OP shared on the situation:
15. Glad to hear that OP’s daughter is doing much better and is with him instead of his ex-wife.
Via u/bookluvr83
16. OP apologized to his daughter for asking her to keep a secret from her mother about him knowing that she lied about getting her vaccinated, and allowed her to tell her mom about it.
Via u/bookluvr83
17. OP also got a lawyer who after studying everything told OP that his ex was going to be in a lot of trouble for what she did.
Via u/bookluvr83
18. OP filed for emergency custody of his daughter and also filed a report against his ex after consulting the doctor.
Via u/bookluvr83
19. OP’s lawyer also got in touch with the same court that issued the order to get the daughter vaccinated. OP was advised to stay quiet about the matter at hand and let things happen.
Via u/bookluvr83
20. The ex finally got to know that OP is aware of her lies. The two had a confrontation at the hospital and she started insulting and yelling at him.
Via u/bookluvr83
21. She accused OP of poisoning their daughter. The yelling resulted in her getting kicked out of the hospital and the head nurse went on to impose a ban on her entry to the hospital.
Via u/bookluvr83
22. She continued berating OP on text messages and OP would simply take screenshots of those messages and send them to his lawyer.
Via u/bookluvr83
23. OP finally got emergency custody of his daughter and his ex would soon be going to jail…for being an anti-vaxxer basically.
Via u/bookluvr83
Here’s what the internet thought about this:
24. I am so glad OP has custody of his daughter and that she is safe.
