We've had such a fright tonight and I'm still wondering what I should of done in my panic.
My 7yr old granddaughter rang me (she has been shown how in case of an emergency or just to chat now and then), she said hello Nanny I'm lost , where are you says I confused, on the Estate (where she lives) but I'm lost and can't find Mummy and home, we had a long conversation about where was Mummy , why was she out on her own and what she was doing with Mummy's phone and she gave very reasonable answers to all my questions but where she was wasn't familiar (her words) and she couldn't find her way home . I was getting quite panicky by this time and was signalling to OH to try ringing my daughter on his mobile as I tried to keep her talking, she isn't allowed out on her own and I just couldn't fathom out where she was or what she was doing wandering alone. My daughters home phone was engaged and in my panic I couldn't figure out her mobile no to give OH.. OH was about to run out the house in the car to see if he could find her as they only live 5mins away I was trying to figure out how to phone the police whilst keeping her on the phone.. when she says calm as you like , only joking Nanny I'm home already... I eventually got her to go inside and hand the phone to Mummy who had been in the house watching Eastenders , granddaughter had been in the garden on the trampoline all this time... well it seemed like an hour but was probably 6/7 minutes...
I was in a state although calm , and my daughter was furious.. the little monkey had really gotten us upset , she was just so calm and plausible.. I really don't know how to make her understand how upsetting what she did was without stifling her imagination or frightening her . I can't stop thinking about it.. any advice would be welcome..
Good Morning Friday 25th April 2024
