Hey guys I'm new here just joined. So I have a question. My son spent the weekend with his dad( where no longer together) and as he was bring him bck home he texted me that our son got burned cuz he left the iron on the beds. Here's what he sent me:
Fritz: He burned his leg this morning on the iron, I was ironing on the bed and left to boil eggs, the iron was to the right on the bed, when I left, he was sitting up , legs crossed, I guess at some point he payed down and go burned, he wouldn't tell me that he did, guessing because he thought he would get in trouble, so I told him it wasn't his fault and it was mine for leaving the iron on the bed, even if it was for a minute, I have burn ointment that you can put on it, I'm sorry.
Should I be upset upset? He had a friend who's a nurse look at and gave him some cream. Why didn't he think to call me when it happened? Why didn't he take him the hospital or urgent care. I asked him to take a pic to send me and he didn't. When my son showed me I got even more livid. I immediately took him to urgent are. He brushed it off like it was nothing. Like it wasn't that bad. That's what pissed me off more. Here's the pic of my sons leg.

He should have told you. But accidents happen and sometimes it not always necessary to take them in. For a that burn they would have just cleaned it and put cream on it. If it was worse then of course ER asap. But accidents happen often.

Idk if I would be mad honestly accidents happen and a text would've been fine now the fact that he didn't take a pic when you asked would've made me mad though

@ilovemy2daughters, yea I understand that. He was very apologetic but he has to be able to communicate with me. My son has never had a burn before so I didn't want to treat it my self. So I felt it was best he get it seen and treated by a doctor.

@patience.ledesma, he left the iron on the bed where he was and took a shower and my son went to lay down and it fell on him. So it's things like that he happened not to tell me and have to find out from our child. Which pissed me off more.

@skeina718, oh well duh 🙄 it's different if you just leave real quick but to take a shower like that's dumb

@patience.ledesma, I agree wished he told me dinner rather than later and went in his regular day.
