Had to write in the accident book today, my mindee (age 2 and a half) came off the slide sideways and hit his head on the trike (not badly but even so).
I feel so guilty...there was nothing I could have done but I feel responsible when someones child hurts themselves in my care, if you see what i mean.
I keep playing it over in my mind, if the trike hadn't been left next to the slide, if I could have got there quick enough to catch him...detailed it all and his mother signed it. She didn't seem to fussed, told me a story about him falling over at home the other day but I can't get the image of the red mark on his head and the tears.
I need to just forget about it as it is done with but my silly mind won't let me.
Anyway, thanks for letting me vent.
