Tonight my DD hit her head on the corner of the tv stand. It swelled up so I phoned her dad who was at work. She was well balanced, alert etc so no serious damage except an impending bruise. The girls dad was lovely at first. I called him back an hour or so later to say that the swelling had gone and she was her happy walking around self. She’s only just started walking I should add. When I called him to say she was fine and not to worry his response was that he needed to have a “word” with me and that I need to take better care of her as he has warned me about her being near to the tv stand.
This is the first time in her life she has ever hurt herself, I looked away for seconds ... I told her to be careful not rush etc but it just happened. It was a complete accident and I was beside myself.
He’s now being all pissy with me and has made me feel inadequate. What possible could he want to have a word with me about? Am I overreacting?

I should add I have twins who are 15 months one walking the other is not. Aside from today neither of the girls have hurt themselves ever

You're not overreacting, HE is.
Do not feel threatenened or intimidated, accidents happen with little ones who are just learning to walk, don't beat yourself up about it...honestly, we've all been there.

WTF? Hopefully the word he needs will be " don't ring me up every time they bang their heads unless it's serious because I don't need to know about that, you're an adult and I trust you"
If he thinks he needs a different word you need to find some words that represent 'Fuck off you patronising shit '

He's feeling guilty because he wasn't there.
