I probably AM being unreasonable but just wanted to gather opinion!
The council have put some new steps in at the playground to reach the top of a small hill where there is a long slide. The playground has all the usual safety stuff like rubber flooring and bark chips etc but the new steps are made of concrete with steel front edges.
When my DD was at the childminder they went to the park, she slipped going up the steps and landed badly, biting through her lip and knocking both front teeth back. I went to the dentist and the trauma of the fall has killed one of her teeth and they're both wonky now - there's also no way of knowing if the damage has gone to her adult teeth until they come in.
Now I know accidents happen and at least it is only a baby tooth but I'm a bit concerned about other kids doing the same thing - seems a bit daft to install concrete and steel steps? Aagh, I AM being unreasonable aren't I?? Loads of slides have metal steps etc... just cross that she's obviously really hurt herself and now has one black tooth!!
