I think I squeezed a few more bruises in there when I saw him. <br /><br />Made my day, week, month... well, you get the idea.Madmotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18189416781378632230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4361480824395722677.post-63355910699540537512010-02-18T13:38:31.396+10:002010-02-18T13:38:31.396+10:00Oh how awful.

I agree with you Melissa, K is exactly that way and will comment rather loudly if people are not doing the right thing. <br /><br />MM I hope that he is on the road to recovery today. Well done on the no drinking weeks too. I think they need to bring back the wearing helmets ads of the 80s or 90s? I am sure there was one with a brain surgeon and he explained what happens to a brain that is not protected by a helmet when the child falls off a bike? I can remember something like that anyway, haunts me to this day!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11909098646294265399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4361480824395722677.post-73295405293702415732010-02-17T21:57:25.950+10:002010-02-17T21:57:25.950+10:00Hope he is okay and that you and Boy 1 and Boy 2 a...Hope he is okay and that you and Boy 1 and Boy 2 are also okay. I hardly ever see children with helmets on these days - seems the police have too much else to do to enforce it, plus kids think they are invinsible.

Whenever I watch things on the news or witness events like this I know why it shakes me up - because I imagine my own kids lying there and you remember just how fragile everyone is, how much can change in a split second, and you just can't protect them enough. xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4361480824395722677.post-44141784888534005562010-02-17T18:49:33.372+10:002010-02-17T18:49:33.372+10:00One ofthe good things about having an ASD child, T...One ofthe good things about having an ASD child, Tan, is there strict adherance to 'rules'.

But I am feeling so very, very sad right now. To see his face crumple, and to watch his fear and know we could only try and ease his worries was so hard. I have known him for seven years, the two boys were at kindy together. I know I shouldn't feel so blue, but all I want to do is cry.Madmotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18189416781378632230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4361480824395722677.post-83071308660089233872010-02-17T17:31:00.797+10:002010-02-17T17:31:00.797+10:00Oh I really hope that he is okay, I saw you all pu...Oh I really hope that he is okay, I saw you all pulled over and was terribly worried that he had been hit by a car.

Also, heaps of kids right scooters to school - without the helmets, but at the high speeds that can lead to a mighty cracked skull {or worse}.PinkPatentMaryJaneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07219272193124932806noreply@blogger.com
