My almost 6 yr old difficult child has scared me so bad tonight ...he came in covered in blood after trying to put a peice of glass thru his wrist.... There was blood everywhere...I raced him and 12 tea towels to the emergency clinic...i was shoeless and in shock..... forgot we have ambulances in Australia.....
They looked at him and the triage nurse says he needs a doctor right away...they had to stitch him with butterfly stitches as for the normal ones he would need surgery and removal of skin,,,,, will have a doozy of a scar across his wrist that will never go away they told me....and applied a pressure bandage to control the blood... he told them his 2 yr old sister did it when asked..He was laughing at the situation manically and his legs were shaking at the same time.....He told me after when i was upset and crying that it was only one thing and not worth getting upset over...He showed no emotion apart from not wanting to be touched...... and of course the manic laughing....He has since told me he did it himself even though its on record at hospital as his sister doing it now.....
I am at a loss as to why this happened and how to deal with it....He's about to turn 6 and shouldnt be this way....when does it get easier? can i never let him out of my sight again? he is hiding knives around the yard and cutting things down here there and everwhere....Im scared for my 2 yr old and i'm worried for him...should i tell the school? im gonan ring the paed on monday am...... as this is not right behavior i'm sure
any advice welcome......
sure others have been thru this..maybe not with one so young though
Please keep him in ur prayers
