Child Scalded By Very Hot Temperature Water Inside Her Water Bottle At A Childcare Center

Scalded by very hot temperature water that was refilled in her water bottle in the childcare center..
Such high temperature water shouldn’t even be refilled in their water bottles to begin with.. Let alone to be placed within the reach of the kids..
This is truly a case of laziness, negligence and complacency.. All in the expenses of my lil peanut..
Share away, my friends..!

Someone commented to the posting saying, “This is unacceptable. What the hell were they thinking. They should have their licenses pulled. Who would put hot water in a child’s water bottle? Child abuse is what this is. Get yourself a lawyer please. And call the police and make a report. If they won’t do anything go to the news stations. Put it on tv.”

The source then gave the following update.

I’ve escalated this to the HQ management.. They apologised but this is beyond apologising.. They explained that they just took over as it was franchised but their HQ is just upstairs of the center yet they’ve no knowledge of what their teachers are doing n such can happen.. They pushed all the blames to the previous director whom is no longer running the center..
Teachers there have no heart to work as they aren’t paid their wages.. Since the management took over; is worse than when the previous director running the center..
Good Principal left, teachers left n leaving n what’s left is a batch of very frustrated n vexed teachers running the center, in hope that they get their wages then they too will leave.. Parents who withdrawn their kids aren’t getting their deposits back.. N I have yet to get mine as well..
It’s an epic mess, resulting such..

She explained that the teacher refilled very hot temperature water into her water bottle, told her not to touch it but left it within her reach and an accident happened. “Thereafter, she used an ice pack to nurse the scalded area which quickly caused it to blister n broke the blister as the ice pack is hard.. U do not put ice nor ice pack on scalded area/s, run running water from the tap on the area/s.. This is simple basic 1st aid..!”

According to her, this happened at a private childcare called Amar Kidz Macpherson.

Kids Amaze In Jurong Accidentally Leaks Rude Email About Parent Of Injured Child

A reader has sent us screenshots of an email sent by a staff at Kids Amaze, a commercial children’s playground located at SAFRA Jurong. According to our reader, a young mother had brought her child to the playground when the child accidentally cut himself on some loose cable ties, which required him to go to the doctor for stitches. The mother then requested Kids Amaze take responsibility for the incident.

However, the young mother later received an unintentionally leaked internal company email from a Kids Amaze staff which accused the parent of being demanding and unreasonable. The staff also disclaimed all responsibility for the accident and recommended that the company not pay for any subsequent medical fees incurred because of the child’s injury.

Read the mother’s post and the emails here.

“So internal email was accidentally sent to me… So friends… Please be aware… If there’s no blood at the incident then I really don’t know what is cutting my son’s forehead such that a surgical glue is required to close up the wound… she admitted to me that after I wrote in to them.. They did a check and remove all the loose cable ties…

It is very obvious that she doesn’t know that in situation like this…. doc will always ask for a follow up to ensure that the wound is close up…. so she thinks I’m so free to bring him to the hospital for review. …

So I shouldn’t “think” KA should be responsible. …. It’s my foul luck that that my son isinjuried in a kids indoor playground ….. seriously I don’t need that compensation anymore…. I have gain enough seeing the ugly face of this organisation“

Chunks Of Concrete Falling From Ceiling Of HDB Flat

Dear TRS,

I was almost killed or seriously injured by the poor quality of my HDB flat.

I was hanging up washing yesterday when suddenly huge slabs of concrete spalled from the ceiling and fell down.

One of the larger pieces nearly hit my head!

Fortunately, I actually had my washing poles still up so the biggest slabs did not fall on me but I simply cannot accept that this is “wear and tear” as my HDB flat is still quite new and nobody touches the ceiling.

Even if it were wear and tear, I could understand it if it was something like the paint peeling but whole slabs of concrete is totally unacceptable.

In total the weight of the concrete pieces is well over 15kg!

What kind of quality if HDB making these days?

We Singaporeans have little choice but to buy HDB as I can’t afford private and yet our own homes are a safety hazard.

I notified HDB of the issue but they are yet to get back to me.

I wanted to share this with TRS to see if anyone else had this problem before? What can we do? Will HDB pay for it to be fixed or do I also need to fork out extra money just to fix the poor quality flats that they give us?
