I will not be typing every detail as it is painful to type so sorry for any mistakes.
Last Monday I collected DS2 from school, as we left the main security door slammed shut and took the top off of my finger, just the fleshy part behind the nail. My nail remained although was black and there was one heck of a lot of blood.
Anyway the long and short of it is I have had reconstructive surgery on said finger.
The entire staff have been extremely concerned about me and have bent over backwards to accomadate me with DS2 needing to be in school earlier as I have had hospital appts. The head asked what I would like to see happen and I explained I felt the lock needed moving and the hydraulic arm needed to be stronger as I believe the wind had blown the door onto my finger.
He has done this, infact he hasn't just had the lock moved he has had it changed to a magnetic strip and had a more powerful arm fitted.
I have had numerous people ask/tell me to sue the school - I won't. I have many reasons for this.
1- When I was growing up this school kept us in food and clothes - My dad was disabled and mum worked there.
2- They gave DS1 a great education
3- I am hoping DS2 gets the same level of education
4- It was an accident, nobody is to blame
5- Suing the school will not change what has happened whats done is done.
So AIBU for having this attitude? no it shouldn;t hae happened thats why its called an accident and thankfully it was me and not a child.
