Once my MIL was looking after my little girl while i was at work … she was just over 1 at the time. She some how managed to be pull a console table down and it landed on her foot. No idea how she managed it as it was quite heavy, made of iron and wood.
She called my husband in an absolute state because my daughter then wouldn’t put any weight on it and it ballooned, he collected her and took her to A&E, she had an xray and all was fine. It bruised bad but that was all. Anyway …. I went absolutely BANANAS when i got home. I knew it was an accident but couldn't understand how my in laws had 3 very young grandkids and didn't have this table attached to the wall!!
They were both scared to tell me what happened as they knew i would be fuming.
My husband is great and i absolutely never have to worry about leaving the kids (3) with him, but before i go anywhere i do still have to point things out sometimes… mainly for my benefit just so i know he 100% is aware of anything. Like our baby is now pulling herself up so needs an extra eye on her.
My point is .. i went nuts over a small accident, you kill my child, i’m killing you too. Now we’re both murderers
