Word of warning - serious eye wound in safe zone

[Aunty Pasty]

Dad2003, I'd just like to say thank you for coming to the board and updating us with the situation. I hope all the boys manage to bounce back from this accident. It's a wake-up call to all of us that none of us are invulnerable and mistakes can have serious and permanent consequences.

It's a wake-up call to all....

Speak for yourself.

Always trying to be the smart-arse aren't you.

Well, I did consider that comment might be inappropriate here, but ultimately, some of us will never put H&S second, and it was not my intention to be rude (unlike you).

As for always, most certainly not, I delete more than 50% of my post drafts (in lieu of not posting at all), because it is not uncommon, but not intended with malice.

Well in that case maybe you should take a second read of what you write before posting. All I was saying was that it was a reminder that accidents can happen with serious consequence but you chose to nit-pick at the wording and imply that some of us don't take safety that seriously.

Yes my post was rude and out of character from what I usually write. Intentionally so.

I Have spoken to the mother of the boy who was responsible, as I said they are not really known to us.

He appears to be struggling with what happened. Hopefully he can get some help with it.

Hopefully you can find it in yourself to reach out that kid and offer any help you can. After all, he's only a kid... just like yours. I'm sure you and your son reaching out to him to help him get past what has happened would go much farther than intervention by any shrink.
