This guy needs to be burned over 40% of his body to be taught a lesson! Let him learn how hot he can become in hours!!
This being labeled as an accident by family is so messed up, especially when this baby wasn't taken to the hospital until 10 hours later
He needs worse! that poor boy
Where was the mother why didn’t she do something to protect her baby. They both deserve to go to jail
If the family is posting or saying this was an accident there's something wrong with them!
I hope this is properly investigated for any child abuse by others around this poor child! Making anyone much less a child wait hours for medical treatment for third degree burns is HORRIBLE!
I had a significant third degree burn as an adult on my hand. It was pretty bad. Went straight to the ER. It didn't hurt nearly as much as I thought it would. Had someone give me a ride, I was in shock as soon as it happened but didn't realize it until the ER doctor told me.
It hurt more than enough later. I can't imagine injuring a child, much less like this POS allegedly did.
