Hey guys. I was wondering if anyone else in a HH setting has ever been attacked while at a house? How did you handle it?
I work pedi HH. At a single moms apartment, the back gate lock not working, the back sliding glass door not having any form of lock on it, and you can not place wood because whoever put the door in put it in backward!
Well, I am by myself and with the pedi, not able to move, holding baby in my arms when a drunk friend of babys mom comes in. He heads straight for me. I do have some jailer experience and have taken self defense classes for years. I placed baby on floor. He grabbed my breast and grabbed my head to pull me into him. I hit him as hard as I could, kicked him in the groin and pushed him as far away as possible. He fell over the babys wc. The mom then walks in.
I called the management and told them. Filed reports, ect. told DH, and will not be working at that home again. I loved that baby very much and feel for the mom. She has been through so much, I feel really sorry for her. Uggggg. I got a job on med/surg and was going to keep working part time for the money at HH. Now, I am not sure if I should continue.
