Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Anyone watching 20/20

I don't know if I want to watch what's next. 

A 4 year old threw a tantrum and started gasping for air. Mom never called 911 and I'm pretty sure the little boy died from something happening during the tantrum.

  • whoa!  That's really scary.  I think you only need to ignore them to a point.  Gasping for air might make me pick them up.  So sad...

  • there has to be more to this... it is very interesting..
  • i might retract my words later, but i dont think she murdered him. Especially if others saw him eating weird things on his own. (example his SS teacher seeing him eat weird stuff)
  • very bizarre story, but it sounds like he was a bizarre kid in general.

    salt poisoning? never heard of it. how much would he have had to have consumed?? a whole container?

    I agree. Sounds like he might have ingested some crazy stuff from the garbage or something.

  • and I must have missed where it would have been the best to call 911. I thought he was just throwing up. i dont know that i would call 911 either

    I wouldn't either. The way she described it makes me thing it wasn't near bad enough to require an ambulance. Especially when they don't live that far.

    I know it would take a while for any ambulance to get here. When we moved into the apartment, the office said it's an average of 7 minutes.

    I can get to the hospital faster than that if I needed to.
