Parents like these should be criminally liable for the death of their child!

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Quote: a friend told the couple their son had meningitis Would you take your child to the hospital just because some friend diagnosed your child?
We might want to slow down on the judgement a bit.

No, but if my child shows signs of something as serious a meningitis, I would rush him/her to a proper doctor! The parents have no excuse!

Severe, persistent headache
Neck stiffness and pain that makes it difficult to touch your chin to your chest
Nausea and vomiting
Confusion and disorientation (acting "goofy")
Drowsiness or sluggishness
Sensitivity to bright light
Poor appetite
Kids get sick like this all the time. One problem kids immune systems have these days is that parents overreact and put their kids on antibiotics for everything. The kids immune system can't get stronger. Just saying.

Really? Neck stiffness, confusion, vomiting, disorientation, etc. etc. If your child shows these signs and that is not enough for an urgent call to a doctor, what in heaven's name is required before you take a child for a professional opinion?

I don't take my child to the doctor when they sneeze. Although, when I lived in Mexico, anytime I sneezed, even once, people would ask if I was getting sick. So, I understand everyone has their own threshold.

No, but I would take said child if they were "lethargic and becoming stiff".

How do you tell that a 19 month old is stiff? What does that even mean? Usually that happens during rigor mortis.

A 19 month old is very mobile, and motion (mostly running) is almost constant while they are awake. What it means, in my non-MD opinion, is there's potentially a neurological problem. In any case, better safe than sorry.

That's why you consult a doctor.

At what point? What does stiffness in a 19 month old look like?

19 MONTHS old not 19 years. Above behavior is normal for a teenager.

You only need to incarcerate the ones that watch their children die, without getting professional help. Cannot be that many of them.

Read the rules. Killing someone else (even your own offspring) does not qualify.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
