Nasty injury but im a little confused as to how it happened. The product looks ok from the photo but I guess i would have to check it out in person. It sounds like just one of those horrible acidents.

That is a nasty gash. I’m not convinced it was entirely the products fault though. Is maybe the child a race to blame? Should he have been doing what he was doing?

What a terrible thing to have happened to her son. I hope he fully recovers from his terrible ordeal. I hope Kmart get in touch with her soon.

Wow that’s so scary! Poor little thing 🙁

I hope little Hunter will be ok soon.

I’m terribly sorry for what this family has had to endure, but in no way is this an item for a toddler to be using on their own. I do think it’s irrelevant on whether it’s from KMart, Myer or a specialist homeware store. Let’s stop blaming businesses and damaging their brand for parenting decisions and choices. Please. I do really feel for Hunter and hope he is well soon, and maybe the shock of what has happened has left the parents wanting to blame someone, but let’s use some common sense. Please.

I feel sad that the child got hurt, but I wouldn’t let my 2 year old operate that without supervision – I’m sure it is not intended for kids that young especially as they could pull it on top of themselves….. as a society we need to stop blaming everyone else and trying to childproof the whole world….

Hope he makes speedy recovery.

Oh my goodness how horrific! That poor bub. Kmart have such a great range these days but unfortunately sometimes you really do get what you pay for.

What a terrible accident to occur to a little fella. I hope he has no long last damage to the hand. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

This may have been a freak accident, so as long as Kmart checks it out, there may be no need to recall it. Sympathy to Hunter and his family, though.

poor little guy, speedy recovery to him x

Poor little Hunter. What a terrible experience

Poor Hunter ! Hope his recovery goes speedy and well.
I don’t think Ms Keremaro should expect that Kmart recalls this product based on this experience. Anything from glass is dangerous for little children. Up to us to protect them against it.

It’s about time we started to take responsibility for ourselves and our families. Can we have a 2017 resolution that we won’t blame the government or any one else for the predicaments we find ourselves in. We did it, we bought it, we ate it. No-one forced us to do these things, so why is someone else at fault.

When you buy a product you should be able to assess the possible danger of it – if you think it will be a danger, don’t buy it. We must take responsibility back for ourselves – let us make a resolution for 2017 that we will be the masters of our and our families fate and stop blaming everyone around us for what happens and insisting that the government look after us.

Mmmm! Maybe we rely to heavily on products telling us to be cautious and what to do!
I do feel for the little boy and the fright and stress it caused his mother, however I also think as parents it is up to us to assess what we put in the house hold and the safest way in which it be used and located In the house. I understand that a 3 year old is very exploratory and gets Into places high and low, so accidents happen and as parents sometimes the nice things we like we have to go without to keep safety in the home tight! As the story has not been relayed through both parties nor a reason as to why a 3 yr old tot was near something made of glass it is hard to say much more other then we as parents are the people who should rate the safety of the product for our little one.

That part may be paper thin but why is a child trying to use it anyway?
Used properly by a responsible person would it be dangerous? If so maybe it should be recalled, – but not because a toddler tried use it. It is not a toy.

I feel for the little boy and his mother, however how is a 3year old boy able to get in contact with a product like that which should be kept from harms way especially from a child his age? Yes Kmart is partly responsible and there should be warnings placed on the the product. Parents too are responsible in watching their toddlers no matter what the situation.

hmm I think there needs to be further information before everyone jumps on the bandwagon.

I’m sorry that her child got hurt, but I dont quite understand which part to the metal spout was paper thin? Maybe it was just an unfortunate accident, but I dont see how a boy who was 2 should have been able to reach something that is made of glass anyway? I would have been more concerned about him pulling it down off a table and it smashing on his face?

I hope that his heal wounds and that the mother get some recognition from K-mart about it – I don’t think it needs to be recalled though as it is something that one would assume a child really wouldn’t have access to>
