Dear idiots posing as teachers at my daughter's school,
Here's a hint: When a child falls and cuts her knee in the paved prison yard you have the audacity to call the kindergarten playground, WASH said knee before covering it up with bandages. Any wound requiring three bandages to cover it deserves a little bit of your attention. Just so you know, removing the pea-sized stone stuck in that wound after it has had several hours to scab over and fester is less fun for all concerned than it sounds. If washing a child's knee over-stretches your competence level, which it obviously does, just call me - 'kay?
You're lucky my husband is restraining me,
Badness Jones
edit - and to put my worries about my children into the proper perspective, please go read this post and take the time to sign the petition. Thanks.

Oh no! The poor thing. I hope that she is feeling better now. And I would definitely be putting a call or email in to the teacher.
Oooh, poor thing.
A few years ago, Ellie opened up both of her knees on the playground. The school nurse just slapped bandaids on -- no cleaning, no polysporine. When Ellie got home, I cleaned her knees and rebandaged them. Unfortunately, in that time, she had already developed impetigo, which meant that she had to go on antibiotics AND miss a friend's birthday party.
Yes, I had quite a few things to say to the kindergarten teacher, the school nurse, and the school principal.
Ow! I winced just reading that.
ow!OW!OW! Poor kid and Mommy. Sometimes it would be lovely if people used common sense, wouldn't it?
Seriously, no one washed it? NO ONE?
And thankyou for the link, I appreciate it.
Are you serious????!!!!
There are no words! NO WORDS AT ALL!
Hugs and kisses to your little one. I hope you phoned and gave the Principal an earful:)
Ouch!!!! It's crazy, and called under funding.
But, um, seems that COMMON SENSE went out the window here!
Hope it's healing well...
That is really strange. If they weren't going to treat it correctly they could have called you before they bandaged it without washing it.
We have 2 really great nurses at the grade school my kids attend. My daughter has spent many hours in their office for many different reasons.
OH brother. You'd think the teacher might have thought to wash it-- even use the incident as a teaching lesson-- see kids... this is how infections start...
oh wait, what am I saying? this is a school without a nurse on staff??
go get 'em.
