Hi, I have a 20 mth son. Am part of a good group of friends with kids of the same age, get together regularly. Last 2 occasions one other boy has badly scratched my boy across the face. This last time he had several scratches around the eye and it was swollen slightly the following day. Am quite upset by this and by her reaction as she was very causal about it (I would be mortified) and clearly not trying to nip it in the bud. Don't want to be the over-protective snotty Mum but should I say something to her or just chalk it up to experience? Feel uneasy about meeting up again and don't want to spend my whole time watching my son when it should be her issue.
