Afterward, though, she picked Tanya up from Eliza’s house and listened to her daughter recount the day when, all of a sudden, Tanya said she “sat on a horsey.”
At first, she just thought Tanya meant a rocking horse and went along with it. But then, Tanya said she “fed the horsey some apples”– and she lost it.
She immediately called Eliza after she got home and demanded to know if Tanya had interacted with any horses.
“And at first, Eliza denied everything and said she didn’t know what I was talking about.
But, when I said Tanya told me about it, Eliza admitted she held Tanya while she was sat on one of the horses and helped her feed them,” she recalled.
Then, Eliza apparently went “on and on” about how safe interacting with horses is and that they were totally in control of the situation. But she did not want to hear it.
She ended up telling Eliza off for being irresponsible while caring for her daughter. Moreover, for going behind her back– which she thinks is entirely unacceptable.
“I was so angry and uncomfortable,” she said.
Eliza thought she was totally overreacting because of her phobia, though. Then, Eliza kept reiterating how well-trained their horses were and how Tanya was in no danger whatsoever.
But, she still did not care and just told Eliza that she needed to think long and hard about what she had done.
And ever since then, she has not spoken to Eliza. Instead, she decided to confide in her family for their opinion.
