Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Yesterday I was driving home and came to a stop in my neighborhood. A small boy was coming down the cross street hill on a scooter (fast), looking at his friends. When he noticed my car I think it startled him and he turned sharply, crashed and went over the handlebars onto the street - hit very hard. He must’ve thought I didn’t see him and wouldn’t stop (I’d already stopped) and he panicked. He was laying in the middle of the street. I got out of my car to make sure he was alright - unsure whether I should get too close if he was seriously hurt. Fortunately his Dad was across the street and came running to his son, and I didn’t have to decide. More fortunately I think the boy and his scooter are OK, maybe a scraped knee. I apologized to the Dad, I don’t know if he saw the situation unfold or not, but he said “you’re good.”
So what would you do if you were the only adult nearby in today’s social distance environment? There’s no way to know how the parents might react (after the fact). Or if it was you and another adult, doesn’t have to be just a child.
