Today I had a child do something I've never experienced before working with children. I responded to an alarming cry from a 4 year old during nap time. She had taken her bret out of her hair and clipped something else with it . . .
Where do you think that bret was clipped?
Whoever guesses right gets a pat on the back . . .
ooooooooooh my. first of all.. ouchy.
second of all, explaining that one to the parents!!!
I feel for you!
OMG!!! Theres a first for everything :eek:
Oh I can guess - having worked with that age group for years - but I am not printing it out on line :ohmy:
One of those things where you wish you could take a picture to support the injury but just know that would be so out of line. The verbal explanation will be bad enough - although at the age you should be able to get the child to tell the mom with prompting like what did your barrette do at naptime - did it hurt you - show mommy where .....
Barrettes, hair elastics, hair bands, socks for infants - had a baby almost choke once after stuffing it in their mouth, belts, sweaters that button and any jewelry are all removed at naptime one for safety and one for limiting playtime.
No one can ever say our job is dull and routine.
Eekkkkk ! Her hooohaaaaa??????
OMG! Tell already! lol
GET YOUR MIND OUT OF THE GUTTER! It was not her blanity blank . . . . LOL
I want a few other guesses before I tell. Get creative guys. Where could she clip that thing other than down below?
Earlobe? Nose?
nooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooope . . . .
Tongue? nipple?
nipple . . . LOL (ouch). . . . ahem . . . no
I'd want to say her tounge or bellybutton
oooo....I guess a "simple" guess would be a finger or toe?? LOL
Her eyelid . . . She clipped her barette to her freaking eyelid . . . .
Her explanation why? 'I didn't have a mirror and I wanted to see what I was clipping' . . . LMAO . . . she's fine by the way.
OH GOD! lol how the heck??
Kids! I tells'ya!
That would hurt enough to make her scream?
Nipple?
OMG - a first for me ... just so you know the 'who ha' and 'nipple' sadly more common that people might think ... seen both of those more than once in my career in centre care and always make you wonder what would make them think to do that - at at least the EYELID is logical conclusion from a kids frame of thinking ;)Quote:
