I just recently found out that last friday on March 13 the most unfortunate event happened to some young kids at a daycare in Arkansas. According to yahoo.com ten children aged from two to seven drank about a one once of what appeared to be blue kool-aid to the children. However it turned out that the owner of the daycare put windshield wiper fluid in the daycare refrigerator and served it to the children mistaking it for the blue kool-aid. According to yahoo “Only one child remained hospitalized Friday in good condition, after blood samples showed “measurable levels” of methanol, a highly toxic alcohol that can induce comas and cause blindness, officials said.”
I really hope the children turn out ok, but just the fact that the owner would make such a critical mistake like putting windshield wiper fluid in the fridge just angers me. How can you be so careless as the fact to make a potentially life threating mistake like that one slip out your hands. You are the owner of a daycare, and your trusted by the parent/guardian to take care of their children for eight hours or more. And something like this happens its just ridiculous. Could you imagine being a parent, and you come get off of work to come pick your kid up from daycare just to find out he/she is in the hospital because someone decided to put windshield wiper in the fridge and serve it to the children. I would be very enraged. But with all that said I am not perfect, I am far from it. I have made my share of mistakes, but I just feel that you have to be more responsible when you are handling other people’s children.
Unlucky Friday
