McDonalds, Chuck E Cheese, Discovery Zone... All
places with ball pits in the children's play area.
One of my sons lost his watch, and was very upset. We
dug and dug in those balls, trying to find
his watch. Instead, we found vomit, food, feces, and
other stuff I do not want to discuss. I went to the
manager and raised hell. Come to find out, the ball
pit is only cleaned out once a month. I have doubts
that it is even done that often.. My kids will never
play in another ball pit. Some of you might not be
parents, but you may have nieces, nephews,
grandchildren or friends with children. This will
pertain to you too. As I read the following, my
heart sank. I urge each and every one of you to pass
this on to as many people as you can. I cannot
stress how important this is!
Hi. My name is Lauren Archer, my son Kevin and I lived in Midland,
TN. On October 2nd, 1999 I took my only son to McDonald's
for his 3rd birthday. After he finished lunch, I
allowed him to play in the ball pit. When he started
whining later on, I asked him what was wrong, he
pointed to the back of his pull-up and simply said
'Mommy, it hurts.' I couldn't find anything wrong
with him at that time. I bathed him when we got
home, and it was at that point when I found a welt
on his left buttock. Upon investigating, it seemed as
if there was something like a splinter under the
welt. I made an appointment to see the doctor the
next day, but soon he started vomiting and shaking,
then his eyes rolled back into his head. From there,
we went to the emergency room. He died later that
night. It turned out that the welt on his buttock
was the tip of a hypodermic needle that had broken
off inside. The autopsy revealed that Kevin had died from a heroine
overdose.
The next week the police
removed the balls from the ball pit. There was
rotten food, several hypodermic needles: some full,
some used; knives, half-eaten candy, diapers, feces,
and the stench of urine.(You can find the article on
Kevin Archer in the October 10,1999 issue of the Midland Chronicle.)Don't
think it's just McDonald's either. A little boy had been playing in a
ball
pit @ a Burger King & started complaining of his legs
hurting. He later died too. He was found to have
snake bites all over his legs & buttocks. When they
cleaned the ball pit they found that there was a
copperhead's nest in the ball pit. He had suffered
numerous bites from a very poisonous snake. Repost
this if it scares the crap out of you!! Repost this
if you care about kids!! Please forward this to all
loving mothers, fathers and anyone who loves and
cares for children!! What has this world come to?? If
a child is not safe in a child's play area then where??
AND FYI: In Florida and other places on the
East Coast a group of people are putting HIV/AIDS
infected and filled needles underneath gas pump
handles, so when someone reaches to pick it up and
put gas in their car, they get stabbed with it. 16
people have been a victim of this crime so far and
10 tested HIV positive.
Now don't you think this is scary !!
