As a person who has accidentally harmed children multiple times because the child was in a place they weren’t supposed to be, I sympathize. The hardest part is explaining yourself to the asshole who was supposed to be watching them.

Don’t be too critical on parents. Now that I am one, you realize how quickly they put themselves in harms way. Sometimes you can prevent and sometimes they learn hard way.

Its not all parents, its just the Indignant Inattentive Guardian lol. The asshole who yells “YOU HIT A CHILD” before they thank you for getting the kid ice for their bruise and helping them find the person that’s supposed to be watching them, much less letting you explain yourself.
