Button battery toy, I feel so guilty
My son (2Y) received a toy car as a gift that has button batteries. He loved it but I’ve been keeping a mental note to get rid of it for awhile. Today while I was making him breakfast he smashed it on the kitchen floor and the battery cover (which has a screw to keep it shut) broke and the batteries fell out. I heard him say “oh no broken” and after about two seconds I looked down to see him picking them. I freak out and out took them away from him and screamed at my hubby to come. I picked all three batteries. And checked there was only three. I checked and rechecked a million times. The cover says there’s three batteries and the compartment only fit three BUT my irrational fear says there’s a fourth one and he swallowed it although very unlikely. I’ve been spiraling.
I’ve learnt a huge lesson today. Those battery covers with screws are by no means a safe options. Never bring button batteries in to your home. I will live with so much guilt for a long time cause I keep thinking what if I wasn’t right there next to him.
