Parents: When serving a meal to your children, please check to make sure that the food is not too hot for your little ones.
The following recently happened in my home: I was serving soup to my 6-yr-old and didn’t realize how hot is was. I had let it sit to cool off, but not long enough. The hot bowl of soup was tipped over by an elbow and spilled onto my daughter. It spilled onto her lap and her chest. I immediately got cold water onto it, and B”H it was not serious. (Chasdei Hashem!) But I hate to think what would of happened c”v had I not allowed it to cool off a bit already.
I am telling all of you this so that all should be aware and prevent this from happening to others.
