Last night after going home from work, I fetched my kid to our grandma's house. after i got him, we ride the jeepney to go home. when we arrived at the train station near the police head quarters, there was a big bang! and then I was very shocked my son cried loud! I knew he was hit by something. I thought it was on the head but good thing it's on his arms and he just got a little bruise! i was so nervous that he might have been hit in the head. I felt like crying. I knew how it feels to be hit by a stone because i was hit long ago by a big one and it left a scar. i wish i was the one hit not him. And those stupid beggar kids that are playing with stones should be collected by the social welfare people because they are just doing stuffs like robbing people. they do not help in the society. and as for those mothers of the kids, why do they keep on multiplying knowing that they will just let their kid be beggars! pity them but they really cause trouble. did you experience accidents with your kid? did you feel the same way like I did? share your experience mylot friends!

Yes, my son was accidentally get burned by hot water. he was with my grandmother at our home. I received call from our neighboor that my son was rush to a hospital for what happened. upon hearing the bad news, I don't know what to do if I will cry or not. So I fetch my wife at work, she was crying all the time until we arrived at the hospital. I tried to comfort her and telling her that nothings wrong happened to our son. I was aboout to cry but I have to be strong for my wife. When we reached the hospital, I saw the condition of my son crying while being treated for first aid by the doctor. That was the only time I cried. I saw how my son suffers from pain that time. I just wished I was the one who was in his situation. He was too young for that. I felt relieved when the doctor said that it will be fine in a few days because the affected area is just shallow and will not result into scars. Also, I am very thankful that only the right part of his face (cheek) and chest was affected and not get into his eyes. By the way, this happened on my 31st birthday. they said that 13 is a bad number but for me, it was the reversed, 31.

Oh my, that was really bad.. My son will be celebrating his first birthday on the 13th of may, well may 9 was the night it happened. there's a saying that when birthdays comes or even graduation, there are many risks. I do not know if it's true. anyway, good thing your son's fine and did not get scars, i hope my son will not get scars too.. anyway it's just bruise.

Maybe it will not resulted into scar. Hot compress will help reduce the bruise. I don;t know too if the saying that before your graduation, birthday, or wedding, you need to be very careful.

Poor my little grandchild, so next time don't seat near the window, go to the other side near the drivers back so no windows wide open. You don't know accidents when and where might happen so be cautious think safety first.

Ohh, I hope your little angel is fine I remember when my second son accidentally had his face burned. He and other kids are playing in our neighborhood and they got near to a dustbin with fire. Our neighbor is burning some thrash in a small dustbin and suddenly something explode that hit my son's face. An empty can of solvent explode and some residue hit my son, burning half of his face and hair. One neighbor run and embrace my son to put off the fire from his hair. He got 2nd degree burn in some part of his face- and thanks God, you can never see any trace of scar- maybe the cream given is too effective and his too expensive hospital did a great job. :) Accident do happen unexpectedly and beyond control. Have a great day and take care with the kids
