Drama Time
So an 18 year old dad and his 16 year old baby mama bring in their 10 month old child to the ER. The waiting room was busy, and the mom sat down without saving a seat for the dad.
This infuriated big daddy. When they got to a room, he started yelling at her. Things got ugly. The nurse called security. Before you knew it, daddy was beating the living hell out of this poor, young, baby mama. Everyone tried to pull him off, but his fury of not having a seat saved for him prevailed. He grabbed the baby, threw him across the room, and continued to beat the mother.
Eventually enough cops were there to contain him. When the mom was let free, she grabbed mace from her pocket and tried to spray him as he was being put in handcuffs. She sprayed it everywhere, unfortunately, and the little baby ended up with mace all over his face.
This was worse than any Jerry Springer drama.

HOw absolutely, utterly horrible! :-((
please say that the baby didn't have to go home with them.
Was the baby ok?
You guys are definitely in the same ER:

What's sad, as that the baby momma will probably end up getting charged for assault as well, since she sprayed him while in cuffs.
Nice family, excellent role models. The baby doesn't stand a chance....if he/she can survive these two gems of the gene pool.
Epilogue: She will refuse to press charges and he will get out of jail and return home to continue beating on them. Perhaps the infant will die. Perhaps she will. Sad.
Methinks you have a fellow blogger at your hospital:

Thank you everyone. We have figured that out and know we work together. But we won't be checking with eachother about blog material so I am sure there will be lots of material overlap
