Anyone who has spent 30 seconds with a toddler knows that kids this age are wired to explore the world around them. That means they require 24-7 supervision to keep them safe, or at least to keep them from making a huge mess all over the house
One Colorado mom found this out the hard way. While nursing her infant son, Madox, Victoria Farmer momentarily took her eyes off her 2-year-old daughter, Anistyn. And suddenly, she realized the entire house was “scary quiet.”
Putting her son down, Farmer went into the next room and found Anistyn completely drenched in white paint from her hair to her toes, thanks to her curious nature and an open paint container nearby. When her mother found her, Anistyn was standing still “like a statue,” Farmer wrote on Facebook, according to Fox 31 Denver. “It looks like she just climbed right in and went for a swim.”

I think the post sucked deal with it
I am not sure if people still use play pens or not. I know I used them for my kids when they were little.
Thank you
If you look close the latter steps are not white
You're reaching . . . There is no way a child playing with paint won't get it on her face. Children always touch their faces.. . or the tops of their heads. The symmetric adult hand sized bare spots on each upper arm show she was placed in the bucket. The foot prints are not steps because they are equally imprinted and don't lose definition as the paint wears off. Instead the steps are equal with each impression. There are no distinctive drips as she moved across the room, yet there ARE drips where she is posed for the photograph where she was put down and, in my considered opinion, told to stand. There are no runs down her legs from what would have been sopped underwear. All of these are red flags to me.
Your assumption that her back was not covered is just that, an assumption. No child would be so carefully, completely covered except on her face by herself. Hurt hair shows signs of just being just having brushed against her paint wet shoulders. There is so much about this that was staged starting with the drips of paint below the can's lid on the hearth.
Hurt hair = Her hair
I just had eye surgery and have a bit of a problem seeing this afternoon. Sorry about that.
I knew what you meant.
Her hair looks like she leaned forward. It is shaped around her face. Kids are all different. Some don’t like to touch their face. Her hair is in her eyes so clearly she was not touching her face even to move her hair.
The footprints do get lighter. There are more paint drips where she is standing, but that could be explained by just spending more time in that spot and allowing time for it to run off.
The back is an assumption. It doesn’t really matter to the truthfulness of the story. No one saw her do it.
Anyway it is a cute story. If it is staged there is no real harm done. But I think the bare shoulders and the paint shaped around the front edges of her hair really looks like she leaned forward into the bucket.
I am calling hooey on this story. Isn’t the paint a little too even?
LOL!
Today’s young mothers might think of them as prisons.
Probably and the same with those garters you put on the toddler when you are walking with him. People give you a dirty look. They don’t realize that this for the safety of the child.
I remember my sister and I used to cut each other hair too onetime when we were small
When I was a toddler I had a harness and leash. They were common.
This was staged and she's posing.
Set Up!
Yeah right *rme*
I used it on my daughter. My sons were 7 and 10 years old when she was born and when they were small leashes and harnesses were unknown
OMG, LOL. Are those your kids? I sure am glad that you posted this, because some idiots in here think that can not happen
