This little kid had 3rd degree burns, but amazingly survived.

Poor wee thing...at least he made it - but a little warning on the baby content would be nice - I try to avoid them.

I'll keep that in mind Shadowkeeper. Although it is reality. This is what my little cousin looked like after she stepped in a chip pan that was on fire that her dad put at the back door. She was in hospital for 8 months and looked pretty much the same when she was recovered. All the skin grafts were hidden, but she was a different person in the end.

Damn, I'm sorry to hear about that...

And you're right, it is reality, and definitely belongs here (and is a great post by the way), but I still try to avoid the ones with babies and really small kids as with me having a little girl of my own, it just hits a little too close to home - of course, when I see these she ends up getting oodles of extra hugs, which we both enjoy, so I guess there's a balance to it...

I agree with the baby warnings, and also sorry for your little cousin..I hope she is doing well now.

I know what you mean, I got 2 myself, tho not so little anymore, seeing stuff like this does make me more cautious whenever I am around babies.

Yeah she lives a pretty normal life now, but I guess the horror of it will haunt her forever, like it will haunt me, when I saw my mum holding her all burnt and the look on her face and the peircing screams.
