Bitten by a child

[user1479630022]

Hello
my son (m9) was accidentally bitten on the top of the head by another child in his class at lunch time yestrrday. School called and we had to collect him as they said it may require stitches. I took him to a minor injuries clinic where the washed the rather deep tooth shaped hole in his head but said they won’t stitch or glue it due to it being treated as a bite and the risk of infection. They have given him a 3 day course of antibiotics.
the nurse asked lots of questions regarding the child the bite him and if I knew the child and if they had their vaccinations. None of which I knew as my son has just started in a new class.
I asked my son to check on his school friend today to see if her teeth were okay etc. my son tells me the child in question has only been at the school a couple of years as they moved here from Africa.
I rang the school this morning and explained the Qs the nurse was asking about if the other child had their vaccinations etc and they said they won’t tell me that.

is this right? I know a human bite can be quite nasty and am I right to ask to know if the other child has had vaccinations? Or am I over thinking and going over board?

thanks

If they were that close, the DC behind would have had her head bent and her mouth open and protruding teeth.

The OPs DC would surely have pushed the chin up of someone behind.

I may be wrong, but I cannot imagine how a head could have met with the teeth of someone behind unless they were bent over with open mouth.

Not always so, and if you can imagine a child jumping up and the child behind having their mouth open, teeth exposed and head bent so that the head comes in contact with the teeth, then you have a better imagination than me.

I don't buy it.

I would understand more if the child behind was so close behind that the OP DC when he jumped up his head would have met the underneath of her chin and that child could have bitten her own tongue.

I think it possible that someone is trying to suggest an alternative to one child biting another in a non-accidental way to attempt to diffuse a difficult situation.

Bad language is used by people who just have never learned how to be kind and polite.

I object to being sworn at.
