When reading the first article I was like you. But then I found the other article and realized that they were talking about the fact that Haleigh was taking the blame for her previous injuries. It is very hard when a child is saying I did it myself, to prove or even accuse anyone else. Unless there is a problem with the story not matching the injuries. Hers evidently matched.scandi said:Thanks Mysteriew for the updates. How could anyone in their right mind think an injury to the brain due to trauma could be self induced by a girl of this age? Incredible! Shades of the welfare case workers in Florida, right? At least here they know where she is located!
Jackalad, I have a child like that too.
He was born with an extra piece of skin under his tongue, that was going to require surgery- he fell at the age of one and split it himself- at the sitter's age 1 1/2.
Fell head first into the toilet at the sitter's. 2-2 1/2.
He had a hangnail, got infected. age 3 1/2. Needed antibiotics.
He fell in the back yard somehow- 5 stitches. Age 5.
He tripped on his shoelace at school. age 6. Skinned his face from his chin to his forehead.
Age 12. Bit by a goat at the zoo.
Age 13. Bit by a skunk. Dad's back yard. He had to start the shots.
Mine has a large head, and I think it made him topheavy. He always fell easily. He had several bumps and bruises, but these are the ones I remember the most.
