You know those accident reports you get from school or child care? The ones that describe a minor mishap, such as “Susie scraped her knee while building a fort. Ice and TLC were applied.”
Usually, I find those accident reports so mundane that I don’t give them another thought.
However, I’ve never laughed at an accident report until now. Thankfully, this time I’m laughing at someone else’s expense! The one shown below is from my friend Tammy S., whose son Nick is 3 1/2. Pay special attention to the comment section:
Tammy gave me permission to share this accident report on my blog. After all, the first thing that popped into her head after she read it was, “I am such a bad mom for seeing humor in this!”
Soft, cushy potty seat inserts. Who knew they were so dangerous?!
What are some of your family’s most humorous mishaps?

That’s so funny! My youngest ended up with a horrible bruise on his chin, after spinning around until he was dizzy and falling on a fan. Once I realized that he wasn’t seriously hurt, it was kind of funny. We keep telling him not to have any more fights with the fan!

Ha! When my kids were toddlers and kept bumping into the coffee table, I used to scold the table for hurting them. They loved it!

All I could think was, how on earth did he get that on his head. Then I remembered, oh, he’s a boy.

Gus put an empty bucket on his head once. Where it promptly got stuck and remained lodged for quite some time. Required butter to remove.

I’m so curious if he was freaked out…or were you?! Or you just got the butter and that was that!

That is so funny! When my oldest son was 2 his best day care friend put a potty seat on his own head too. Only problem was they weren’t able to get the potty seat off of his head. They had to cut it off! To hear my then 2 year old re-tell the story was the best. When I came to pick him up he said, “Mommy! W put a potty on his head today. D-ay (they) hafa (had to) cut it off! I don’t know why him do dat (that)!” Oh the things kids do . . . too funny!

I had to tell you I was in a very quiet place, expected to be very quiet. I read this and burst out laughing. I am not kidding!

OMG – I am laughing so hard!! This is hilarious! How could that teacher send that note home with a straight face??
My toddler recently got her finger pinched in a moving potty seat incident (kisses were applied) but I can’t imagine the mechanics involved in removing a potty seat from a child’s head. Thank goodness EMS weren’t called – do you bring out the jaws of life??
