This is another sad story of child injury that happened at home. As a young mother, this thing always play in my mind. Since I have a daughter who is the same age as the girl, I can understand Noraini's mother's feeling. I always worried about my daughter's safety at home. Sometimes it got my nerves when seeing my daughter uncontrollable behavior that I scold her and sometimes punished her. I don't want her to go in the kitchen while I'm cooking. My mom always told me not to scold such a young toddler, but for me, it's better to let her cry with out any pain than let her be in dangerous and risky zone.
