Went to pick up DS from nursery a few days ago after DH picked him up the day before and found the front door open, not wide open, but not locked.
anywho, walking upto the door ( has a big front drive ) and a man came out of the front door with a child, we had just turned into the drive and said " do you want me to leave it open? "
Now i know he was just being friendly and helpful, but i was actually quite shocked and annoyed ( had a rather unpleasant day aswell ) and said to him you shouldn't do that, you don't know who we are - he just laughed in my face and said, "god paranoid or what!"
well that just pissed me off even more and i just sighed and walked past him.
when we got to the door no one was there, and we walked inside and told the manager etc, she seemed very concerned, and have noticed this morning that they have put up a massive notice for parents etc about closing doors etc, so am happy about that, but after having a lot of anxiety issues rgds to my DS safety im not sure if i over reacted and am being Paranoid?! or If my first reaction was correct, i honestly feel like finding the man and shaking him in anger/frustration to try and get it into his head how fucking dangerous that attitude is.
I don't know, i just can't let it go, i am over protective, but im aloud to be arn't i?
I don't smother my son in anyway, its me that sufferes with the worrying, constant, non stop, i haven't slept or thought the same since having him, i just wish people weren't so flippant about their child/rens safety, in a way i start to worry about them aswell .
The fact is, he didn't know who we were or what we were doing there, yet he just left the door wide open for us!
i feel sad about it.
