Teachers may be occasionally responsible for embarassing moments for good parents, but they are also there to stop abusing parents from inflicting pain on their children. Often adults never do ask, or never do have the time to notice. Children suffer, and are damaged for the rest of their lives, however long or short those might be.

He recommends Chinese water torture, hair pulling and extended forced fasting. Stays under the radar that way. (you know I'm only kidding, right?)

She walks back in with the head of peds (at an Army hospital, no less) and he confirms it is in fact eczema. Then he looks her in the eye with a fairly evil stare and says, "And THOSE are just normal bruises for a 3 year old boy to have."<br /><br />I kept my mouth shut for fear I might get my (then) husband in trouble, but was thinking "WTF??" the entire time.

Boy 1 constantly has some sort of cut/bruise/healing stitches on his person. Always. He practically has his own room at ER. I always feel defensive when they ask what happened this time... "Well, I was hanging him from the ceiling by his toes, and he fell." Ugh. Boy 1 constantly has some sort of cut/bruise/healing stitches on his person. Always. He practically has his own room at ER.
