mindee and dd have been playing happy here all afternoon..5 mins before mum comes mindee stands on dd's hand leaving swollen red mark, dd is fine, mindee is crying..mindee through creams is saying but i said sorry i will be alright..i said i know you said sorry and that it was an accident, but that doesnt make it feel better, it will take time..cue mum arriving and mindee screaming, saying i upset her and she wouldnt come to me when i asked her too saying she wanted to leav..sh*t to me that looks awful im be wondering what had gone on..explained it all to mum and she seemed upset her dd was upset obv, but it makes me look like 'something' hapend other than what did and am worried mum will doubt me?

Uh oh! reassuring (((hugs))) coming your way! Try not to worry about it too much, easy said than done, I know. I'm sure the mum understands that things happen. She was probably just getting more grotty because mum had arrived.
Is dd ok now?

agalch · 24/07/2007 17:03

Oh poor you,can you maybe phone her mum and ask how mindee is now?? Then explain what happened? Has happened to me but the mum was ok about it,knew the dd was a drama queen.

KaySamuels · 24/07/2007 18:13

I would ring mum too and ask if mindee is ok now. Maybe ask if she is tired etc as was more upset than injured dd was.

Is this the mindee who is always crying? Is it a manipulative tool? Maybe ask mum if she is tearful at home too, and how mum would like you to deal with it.

I would just be honest and say you felt terrible that mindee got so upset, and hoped dhe was ok now.

PinkChick · 24/07/2007 18:22

dp thinks if i ring it will make me look lke something did happen?
yes is the one who cries to get own way and does always get excitable when mum comes.

Dont ring then just remeber to ask how she was last night when she comes in the morning then?

LoveMyGirls · 24/07/2007 18:51

AND DONT worry about it, mindee hurt your dd, mindee got told off (you had words) children get upset when they have done something they know they shouldn't have. Has your dd still got a mark?

fedupwithallthispaperwork · 24/07/2007 18:58

why not text her and say hope mindee ok now, you have filled out and incident form and will get her to read and sign it tomorrow.

mindee sounds like a manipultive little madam to me and i'm sure her mum is used to her dramatics!! Hope your dd wasn't too upset by it does she enjoy mindees company?

PinkChick · 29/07/2007 17:35

hi sorry didnt see this!..yes i am sure her mum does know what shes like but i felt incredibly bad when i hadnt actually SAID a word to her to make her be like this and at 3 almost 4 you dont expect it!.
she does get on with dd although is very much on different wave lengh and reg'tunes out' of other things/people when shes doing something, so dd stands shouting to her xxx look?..xx..look at this..xxx.look at this..to no repsonse from her?
