The short answer is “no”. The long answer is that your son was being a jerk and owes you an apology.

I suggest you panic. The sooner the better.

The short answer is “no”. The slightly longer answer is that I’d be more concerned if I raised a son gullible enough to believe everything he reads. Some day, he may get over that. You can aways hope.

We only do sunblock when we’re going to be in the sun for an extended period. We use Jason or Kiss My Face sunblock, as it has fewer ingredients and no parabens. The kids’ jungle gym is under a tree, so we go without sunblock most of the day. They’re in and out of the shade but have never burned.

Yes panic is good. I am incapable of independent thought or action without the advice of experts.

You didn't hurt your grandkids one iota. By waiting until after 4pm to hit the pool I'm able to get in a good swim with good sun and not use sunscreen at all.
It's all about the timing! (And your son is a dweeb!)

I know a guy running sun tanning salons and he tells me people screw up and get burned and cancer happens quite frequently.
Also little kids who get burned supposedly tend to be cancer prone later in life.

The Dead Sea area is notorious for tanning without burning because of the murky moisture and dust bowl over it

Thats all I can think about, did I hurt my grandchild because I was stupid? One episode of a little pinkness is not harmful. A severe sunburn would have been different.Don't feel guilty.

Now we have conflicting studies that the sun is both good and bad for you.Oh great something else to worry about.
I was finally comfortable that coffee was bad for me in odd numbered years, and good in the even years.

I tell people I am a person of pallor. LOL, as a person with irridescent white skin, I love that. I never tan, I only burn and peel, so I stay out of the sun except for going from my car to the store, or out of my house to the mailbox. I take Vitamin D supplements, as I have recently heard of a study that says that people in northern climates or climates that do not get a lot of sun (I live in the Puget Sound, Seattle, area) or those with very light skin tone, should be taking Vitamin D. So, I take some every day.
To: Phillyred
The Sun isn’t to blame for skin cancer.
For that you need to blame high intake of polyunsaturated oils and fats in the diet that suppress immunity to the cells of your body.
I bet lots of sunscreen products contain them as well.
