began a warning to parents that child might find some of the scenes too horribly vivid What followed was a depiction of the aftermath from a few mom or carelessness The pro grim dealt the care of burn victims Burns are perhaps the most disfiguring of all accidents To the painful rcconstruc surgery that lakes place over a period of years on children without eyebrows or eyelids without lips or cars without a nose to watch with vivid the result of accidental burns that could have been was an that f will rcmem throughout lifetime The was filmed in the burn unit of the Isank Walton Hospital In Ilahf Hi title TheOlbtrChild is in my inspired convey the idea such happen someone else child never your own I disagree with the warning that preceded the A warning is so that parent can explain a child what they arc about to bee but what disagree with is idea ihc scenes art too vivid for young children Wc are a strange breed Wcconsidcnla kindness to hide Ihe ugly side of life We hide away our crippled our scarred our dis figured Wccrcalean artificial world filled with only the so called beautiful people and It is suth a tragic mistake I remember a year after a tragic accident in Peel involving teenagers that police or some other authority wanted lo put the accident vehicle on display at Mayficld High School The school tecs found the Idea repulsive y it the death or disfigurement of a teenager who has yet to taste life Is not even consider cd in the same breath The accident involved alcohol and the real life scene of that cms car complete with blood stained scats would have done more than our culture could estimate at point in time Wc will never gain control over accidents although most arc preventable until we come face to face after My feelings are the some for showing of The Other Child parent should make sure he watches It with his offspring To tell a toddler Mutches burn don touch Ins nowhere near the Impact carried by a close up of an I old neck lip and shoulder area fused together din- is of it twisted red flesh that was once a pretty Utile chin and a neck with full mob lily Certainly it is terrifying but what parent would like look upon their own children In such a tragic condition they know it could been preventable in pan reading Ihis I urn keep their disli delirgenl under How tndlltr In house Dish detergent has in it which if cause burns A cigarette lighter kept on a table or matches lift in a desk dr or on lop of the drisstr Do we believe that No no touch is good enough The Other Child is definitely an inspired title A series The Other Man The Other Woman would well be In order When tragedy strikes It always happens lo the other one Us No never for we can drive after a drink or two and our child never touches anything he told not to Heartache Is what happens to someone else until we discover too laic that wc were wrong 1 believe It was Stalin who said One death is a tragedy a million deaths is a statistic The psychology there is that we can comprehend one yet a million deaths Is mind boggling With the horror oi burns and result of scarred and disfigured flesh can we comprehend heartache If such tragedy curs in OUR house If
