[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid breaks something in the store you pay for it. If your kid gives someone a concussion, you pay for it. [/quote]

100%. i’m not sure why all these people think the family of the kid who dropped the water bottle is just free from responsibility here. That’s not how this works.[/quote]

No. this is why you have health insurance. [/quote]

Most people have co-pays and deductibles. It’s easy to spend $400-500+ at the ER when you are getting a CT SCAN and/or MRI. Most insurance policies don’t have a $0 ER copay. Why does OP need to pick up the bill when concussions are brain injuries and serious and she has to live with that. Even mild concussions have short and long term health implications, and OP’s concussion was moderate. [/quote]

My goodness. Accidents happen. Most of us wouldn't have gone to the ER for something like this. What do you expect the family to do? Pay OPs wages for a few weeks? JFC[/quote]

i’m sorry-you wouldn’t go the ER when you are hit in the head from 12 feet up with a water bottle?? And have a terrible headache after that turns out to be a concussion? Wow…[/quote]

What do they do for concussions at the ER?[/quote]

Nothing. Give you a paper that talks about concussions. The same as when your child gets hit on the head at school and goes to the school nurse.[/quote]

You do realize that you don’t find out you have a concussion until you actually go correct? It’s not like you just know. They check to make sure you don’t have a serious brain injury. It’s a head injury-most people tend to take those pretty seriously. That being said it seems like many on this thread maybe have had some they have chosen to ignore. [/quote]
