bellekatz Posted October 8, 2007 Author Share Posted October 8, 2007 I probably wouldnt tell the papers as I am sure the poor lady has been through enough, but I have emailed the school as I think they should celebrate turning out well rounded sensible teenagers as well. We will see what they say................ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Nothing to add to Susiepoos great advice there, but big congratulations to the girls for being willing and able to help . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Well done to your girls Bellekatz, those situations are never easy, even for those with experience! They did really well, no wonder you are proud of them. And good advice from our nurse cohort too - I've certainly nothing to add! Except to Laura - don't worry it might never happen, but good to know about just in case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 So nice to here something positive about teenagers when will people realise that the vast majority of them are great people. Completely agree. Comforting thought for me that not all of the nation will go to ruin by the time im a pensioner and there's hope out there!! Bravo!! Bellkatz DD and friend. Quite rightly proud.

bellekatz Posted October 8, 2007 Author Share Posted October 8, 2007 theres no reply from school yet but the girls went round to the family this evening to see how things were . The family ( including husband who is now back home) saw them coming and immediately went out to them! It seems baby has both an ear AND throat infection and us on anti biotics now. They couldnt say thank you often enough and I think the girls feel really good about what they did. Wonder if school will do anything at all - an acknowledgement of my email would be good........

theherd123 Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Good for them! The family must be really pleased they have such caring people living close to them. Its very hard to keep your cool in a situation like that so your daughter and her friend deserve lots of praise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Well done to such young people keeping a calm head on their shoulders at such a difficult time. Glad to hear that things are getting better with the baby now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Wow! What a great story! Well done to your daughter and her friend! They should feel so proud of themselves. Being with people who are panicking is one of the scariest things... I DO hope the school acknowledges their valuable actions. Its great to know there are young people out there who are like this! Its also great that they went round to see the people too, and received the gratitude they rightly deserve! Bravo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 what a lovely happy ending - good for your DD and friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 this is a fantastic story.... i know I have said it before, and sorry for repeating myself, but really... the beautiful behaviour of your daughter and her friend, followed by the gratitude of the mum & dad going to them... Honestly, your daughter and her education are a real pride to her and you, and her friend's too... most neighbourhoods would be proud to have her... community spirit is what this is all about, and it is an example to everybody.
