[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 18514, member: 1697"] LOL, technically, well, LOL- I guess he could say yes he did...... DO be cautious with a head injury. closed head injuries can be much more serious than they appear..... as for kids watching kids? while leaving a grade 6 home alone might work sorta ok, and is legal in many areas, leaving that many kids such a large group alone that way is a different story. Peer pressure, bullying, more heads being better than one to come up with "brilliant ideas" ------not at all a good idea. Not in my opinion. As for injuries...well our school has supervised recess indoors and out, but a classmate of my son fell with adult supervision, smacked her head, adult (paid, not volunteers, not teachers) recess aide took her to the school nurse who then sent kid to class, and minutes later the kid was airlifted out to a city childrens hospital ICU for brain injury....but the school nurse thought the kid was "just fine" Aw heck......our local ER said my sons poked out eye was "just fine", too and 5 days later we were in a major univ teaching hospital in emergency surgery on that eye. So- who knows how much difference it makes sometimes? BUT I sure would NOT be happy with ANY grade, not even HS being left alone unsupervised at school, no way. Not a group- and not during unstructured paly for sure. in my opinion thats just asking for trouble. [/QUOTE]
