[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry this happened. Obviously, it was an accident.

That said, I can’t believe your first thought is suing etc. Just doesn’t sit right with me. I’m guessing the parents of the kid got the same sense, possibly, and knew to steer clear of much conversation.

I would potentially discuss safety measures etc with the facility (sounds like an incident report was filed, so that is good) to help prevent this from happening again.

I hope you feel better soon.  [/quote]

It wasn’t my first thought. My first thought was ‘oh my God, what just hit my head. Am I ok’ and my second thought was that my three year old, sitting next to me, could have gotten a skull fracture and died if the bottle had been dropped six inches to the left. I asked the mom for her contact information 20 minutes after the bottle was dropped when she came down to get the water bottle. I wouldn’t have asked for her information if she hadn’t come down to get the water bottle and had left. The facility is big and our kids were not in the same activity - I had never seen her before.

It’s in incredibly poor taste to go out of your way  to get a water bottle [b]your unattended child [/b]dropped on someone’s head when you couldn’t even be bothered to ask the person your child injured if they’re ok. What message are you sending to your children? [/quote]

Who said the child was unattended?[/quote]
