I had an incident yesterday in which a child in my care (3yo) fell on some legos and was so mad about it he threw himself headfirst onto the hardwood. I ran and picked him up and his eyes rolled back and his arms and legs were flailing. I called the ambulance, they said his vitals were good, but wanted to take him to the children's hospital to check him out further. His mother meet him there and they apparently waited 6 hours, but never saw a doctor.
Now this is clearly a very emotional kid, so this could've a temper tantrum, but it was one of the scariest thing I've experienced in all my years caring for children. Now I'm very nervous about him coming back... am I looking for symptoms of head trauma? how do I feel about caring for a child that would do something like that? I don't know... what are your thought? Thanks!
