or is there no such thing as an accident any more???

[duomonstermum]

have just had a very irate dad at my back door ranting and raving that DS(11) hit his D(5ish) in the mouth. i dragged DS to the door and asked him to explain to me and her dad exactly what happened. he explained that they had been playing kerb ball and she wanted to join in. she got off her bike and tried to join in and her and DS bumped into each other, his hand hit her mouth and bust her lip. it was a complete accident and he appologised to her.

i had just gotten DD to sleep and the next thing he's at the door hammering so he woke her up all the other kids who had been playing were telling him that it was an accident but he wasn't happy with DS apologising. he stormed off muttering something about me not doing enough about it. ffs i wasn't there, it was an accident and DS APPOLOGISED!!!!!! WTF more does he want me to do!!! i can't punish DS for an accident just to please him

Some people lose all sense of reason when their child comes in bleeding. Don't worry about it.

over reaction and 5 year old should be in by now too i would have thought..

i know!! ffs i don't go knocking on his door when his DD knocks over DD(19mth). the girl herself is a sweetie but seems to be allowed out till quite late. not that i care. DS is tucked in with DD watching mr.bean's holiday cos she won't settle. they look reeeaal cute!
