Mine tripped at the park and cut his forehead open. Stitches were needed but thankfully there were witnesses. He was constantly falling head first. A few months later, he fell busting chin open but no witnesses. Again, stiches were needed and I was so scared the ER would think it was my fault. Of course, they questioned him about what happened. Come on. Toddlers fall. Combine growing feet and large heads and you're going to have topples.
“Stitches were needed but thankfully there were witnesses.”
Yea, you have to COLLECT NAMES and phone numbers in a case like that, and ONLY THEN take him in. Otherwise you do the best you can to treat it, and maybe later get some plastic surgery to clean up the scar.
Ask a kid if he’s rather have a forehead scar, or a new set of parents - that is TODAY’S SOCIETY. Sticking our heads in the sand and thinking it’s the 1950s no longer holds water, especially if you’re white, as social workers now have orders (in many jurisdictions) to “better balance out “ the races of the kids they are removing from parents.
