The children shouldn’t have been outside playing while the grass was being mowed or whoever mows the grass should have waited until the kids went inside
I worked at a daycare for 8 years and every time they mowed the grass that surrounded the playground, the kids were all inside. There is NO excuse for something as careless as this.
They probably had that same rule but people make mistakes. It's likely that one of the care takers didn't see the child and assumed all the children were inside. The person doing the lawn should have done a perimeter check and checked any spots children may be hiding before turning on the lawn mower. If they had dome that, they would have likely found him and this would have been prevented.
Just because you have certain rules doesn't mean everything just goes as planned, especially with children. There should always be safeguards in place to double check especially around dangerous things like a lawnmower.
@annaburns2865 They were probably doing their job as in hired by the daycare to take care of the lawn. Who lets kids run around while someone is mowing the lawn? keep the children inside the DAYCARE while they cut and finish....simple as that. Ive been a landscaper for 10 years and currently one of the properties is a mental health center for children. The caretakers always make sure the children are safe INSIDE before we start to mow.
OMG! THE PAIN!! And he's got PTSD having night terrors about it 😭 Physically and emotionally changed forever!! The only good thing about this is because he was so young he will have a headstart on healing from this, and he'll have a cool story to tell when he's older :)
@@BarryBobbins True that the details of this story are not positive in any way, but it is hoped that he will grow to be happy and that he will be able to find something positive in everything, even this. Many people suffer life-changing injuries, and go on to live very happy, productive lives, even finding joy in what others call a handicap.
I hope the mother sues them... Both the land owner for deciding to mow the lawn with small children present and sues the daycare for not watching the kids. I hope she becomes a multi-billionaire for what they did. And I hope they pay for all the therapy that little angel needs for life!
I feel like the man was caught blindsided by the kiddo. I don't know how many kids are in their care but I know my sister and I weren't allowed to be outside due to potential flying rocks.
Absolutely that daycare should be shutdown and sued along with the mowing company. It was deliberate on both sides, that doesn't happen by accident, I grew up in the country with smaller and bigger lawnmowers than that and was outside with my 9 siblings and we never got injured. It wasn't a mistake from the Daycare and it wasn't a mistake from the mowers.
wtf! This is unacceptable real talk! How are they giing to let this happen! I don’t give a fk how good you think this daycare is! This is why I don’t trust ppl with my kids! Not even my own family
If I'm a person that needs to work to survive, I'd never have children. To leave them in a place to be raised carelessly by others, never. Thank God my husband takes care of my son and I so I'm the one who takes care of our only child.
@felishadiaz7227 if you are ever around children you will understand, they will walk behind moving vehicles,they will step in front of moving vehicles,they will step in to swimming pools ,bodies of water,they don't have life experience, if the person cutting the grass,or watching the kids had understood this ,the kid would not have lost his foot
@@FirstnameLastname-vy2dg I see this verse isn't getting the attention it deserves. How predictable. People believe their kids will learn through osmosis these days. "Parents" enable and justify... they don't correct or teach.
Poor little guy. It’s perfectly fine for lawn mowing to happen at a daycare, but the daycare has to ensure all the kids are in the building. The new report what terrible at explaining how this happened. They made it sound like the home owner and day care were the same person. I’m not sure why reporting has become so mediocre.
Horrific Injury! She will sue for $$$ because the boy will need ongoing care . Send those Hospital Bills straight to that Daycare !! Last Month a child lost their toes in a similar case in Utah :(
And here is the neighbors dad letting the little kids all around his ride one. I swear i saw the eldest son open up where the blade was and touch it or something insane.
poor boy. he's so adorable and precious! even after the accident so happy and full of life and smiling. the fact he has nightmares about it still... very sad. probably gonna have nightmares until he's an adult, considering his other foot is just missing.
Even this morning in our condo dog park, the guys on the mowers shut them off when the dogs came in to play. We also made sure to keep the 🐶 at a distance from the mowers just to be extra safe. Why was any child outside near a mower in the first place?
Day cares are expensive..a mother pays alot of money for the daycare to take care of their child and yet has to face this???!!!😡.. this should have been very preventable yet the dacare allowed it to happen..they should lose their liscence and serve jail time and pay that family a good amount of money they deserve for life..poor little boy he didnt deserve this 😢
As a mother, it pains me whenever my children get sick or hurt, even in the smallest measurements. I can’t imagine what this poor mother is going through. God bless this child 🙏🏼
Get him play or art therapy. This will set heavy in his unconscious for life and needs therapeutic attention from a safe, experienced, non-woke child therapist. WHAT was going on in that HOSPITAL??!!! WHY she is not suing that daycare, those workers, or the hospital is beyond me. This is going to cost more than therapy needed!
Omg 😳!!! Negligence to the max! Poor child now he is handy cap for life 😢 so so sad! I know no money will bring back the damage but the family will need lots of resources for different therapy, physical and emotional plus a device for his foot different ones as he grows, that is not cheap. Hope they sue the daycare and are able to get as much as possible and also ideal jail time for the ones responsible.
And I bet you the educators has ask the owners not to do this during hours, had so many goes at bosses for this, ALL and ANY Maintenance should be done during weekend only
Look people, I worked at a daycare for years… And all ai saw was neglect and abuse from 98% of the staff. Other than myself, two managers and one new employee at the time I quit, everyone was neglectful, verbally abusive, and if your child had a disability.. Dont get me started. 😂 The daycare I worked for closed in the past for neglect, and it was reopened. I personally saw illegal numbers, abuse, neglect, they owners didnt shut the water off form the kids bathrooms when the cold water wasnt working so guess what. Kids are forgetful so they were constantly burning their hands. I reported them to the government when I left but oh look, the owners husband is head of the government’s child department so he would write off the report and inspection as passed and no abuse found. Ive seen family members picking up grandkids and nephews under both influences… You cant even trust family so how can you trust strangers 😂 Just go on welfare and stay at home for a few years.
How on earth does this happen? In addition to negligence on the part of the child care workers, the person riding the lawnmower should have known better to be anywhere near the children. This should not happen. Hold these people accountable. This poor child will not be able to walk for the rest of his life. 😡
Since Fox didn't bother to post a link, google "Mateo lost foot at daycare" and the GoFundMe will come right up. It's titled "2 year old's foot amputated to riding mower while at daycare". As of now they're sitting at 20,000 raised of a 40,000 goal. I happen to know for a fact they'll need far more than 40k for the prosthetics alone, he'll need new sizes as he grows. Prosthetics aren't cheap.
I agree with everyone else. If someone was out mowing then the children should have been kept inside or somewhere else that’s safe. If you’re mowing and there are children as young as 2 running around then it could very easily be a recipe for disaster.
Thats why i can never send my child to daycare i would never trust a daycare. My child started 3k i keep thinking all day that what if the teachers are mean to her i keep asking her every single day if someone is mean to her..
Despite the physical change, it shouldn't change who you are inside. That's what I learned after I permanently injured my right knee more than a decade ago.
That poor boy...his mother needs to sue, that is just pure negligence. Mowing the lawn should only be done if the kids aren't there! Even if they were inside, just in case they wander out, the lawn shouldn't have been being mowed while they were there. And I'm sorry but I just can't get over how bored the chief sounded and looked...I just kept thinking that he doesn't care, this is an inconvenience in his day...I hope I'm wrong and he's just normally a...I don't know, slower kind of guy? But the impression he gives off is just bad, at least to me.
How did the person driving the mower even get close to a kid?? Was he not even watching?? And why was yardwork being done with the daycare children outside??
I even keep my cats shut in when mowing the lawn…😮😮😮😮 and obstacles and stuff! I think the person activating the lawnmower was not looking where they were going they should’ve been hyper vigilante knowing there’s loads of small children outside playing! hope little man isn’t traumatised by this for too much longer, so sad
The children shouldn’t have been outside playing while the grass was being mowed or whoever mows the grass should have waited until the kids went inside
This was a daycare!!!
This is a toddler; the toddler doesn’t know what’s dangerous. It’s the daycares fault for not securing them inside.
True
Which is WHY they should not have been mowing the grass during business hours! @@Tr33splease
Exactly
I worked at a daycare for 8 years and every time they mowed the grass that surrounded the playground, the kids were all inside. There is NO excuse for something as careless as this.

Their ass couldn't wait until the kids went home???
I know right ✅
It's the daycares fault.... landscapers have a schedule.
Yea it’s the daycare’s fault not whoever was mowing the lawn
It’s the landscaper’s fault too. No excuse for riding a lawnmower or heavy machinery near children.
@annaburns2865 They were probably doing their job as in hired by the daycare to take care of the lawn. Who lets kids run around while someone is mowing the lawn? keep the children inside the DAYCARE while they cut and finish....simple as that. Ive been a landscaper for 10 years and currently one of the properties is a mental health center for children. The caretakers always make sure the children are safe INSIDE before we start to mow.
The lawn should have been done when none of the watched children were at the house. It only takes seconds before it cant turn bad.
OMG! THE PAIN!!
And he's got PTSD having night terrors about it 😭 Physically and emotionally changed forever!!
The only good thing about this is because he was so young he will have a headstart on healing from this, and he'll have a cool story to tell when he's older :)
Not sure what’s cool about a lawn mower
@@bunaynayslay This is the sort of horrible thing that can make a good story later. Remember, chicks dig scars.
There’s no positives in this story except that he lived.
That poor child will always be haunted.

Nah,that would been classified as a not cool/uncool story.
Why were the children near where the lawnmower was running???!!!!
Why is there not a fence around the children's play area ?
I smell a lawsuit.

Absolutely!!

Multi billionaire? That’s a bit of an absurd estimation
@RyanDVA63 XD I have been known to exaggerate bit, but still it pisses me off when things like that happen.
He can mow his lawn when he damn please. Watch your kids.
@@airtioteclint This was at a daycare while small children were playing. He is the one who shouldn't be operating a lawnmower around them.
@@airtioteclint You’re pretty dense
There was no other time they could mow?
I feel like the man was caught blindsided by the kiddo. I don't know how many kids are in their care but I know my sister and I weren't allowed to be outside due to potential flying rocks.
Yes he probably was but at the end of the day it's the daycare fault having the kids outside while someone's mowing.
Sue them.........😢😢😢😢

😢 I only watch 45 secs in and I couldn't watch the rest. My heart broke for him and his family. Mom hang on there...
It's hard to hear when lawn mower is on. Keep pets and children inside.
Children do not have life experience, or knowledge, you have to treat them like idiots

15 Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.

And here is the neighbors dad letting the little kids all around his ride one. I swear i saw the eldest son open up where the blade was and touch it or something insane.
How negligent does the daycare have to be
poor boy. he's so adorable and precious! even after the accident so happy and full of life and smiling.
the fact he has nightmares about it still... very sad. probably gonna have nightmares until he's an adult, considering his other foot is just missing.
Never take your kid to a home daycare.
I hope the mother sues the daycare! His traumatic incident never should've happened!
The go fund me should be funded by the stupid daycare, not the general public.
How do you not turn off mower when you see a child running at you how does this even happen ?
Even this morning in our condo dog park, the guys on the mowers shut them off when the dogs came in to play. We also made sure to keep the 🐶 at a distance from the mowers just to be extra safe. Why was any child outside near a mower in the first place?
Press charges
Sue them and the mom gets all the money.
How... how does a worker in charge of children allow this to happen?!?!?
I suspect this daycare may be filing bankruptcy soon.
A giant lawsuit ...but part of that money should go into a trustfund for the kid!
Gross negligence at the very least. What idiocy. Lawsuit and closure are called for.
Day cares are expensive..a mother pays alot of money for the daycare to take care of their child and yet has to face this???!!!😡.. this should have been very preventable yet the dacare allowed it to happen..they should lose their liscence and serve jail time and pay that family a good amount of money they deserve for life..poor little boy he didnt deserve this 😢
Obviously people need to be more vigilante on who cares for thier kids!!!
At no point should they have been cutting grass with kids on the lawn
Or simply just pick another day to mow when they (the children) were phphysically absent altogether
This isn’t fair that poor baby didn’t deserve what happened. I really hope he heals & is able to overcome the ptsd🥲
If the kids like it there, imagine how the other kids that saw that happen to the little boy, they all gotta be traumatized too.
Dumbness and negligence. Sue that daycare.
This is sad and heartbreaking for this little child.
❤🙏
mamas and babies got to stay home.
As a mother, it pains me whenever my children get sick or hurt, even in the smallest measurements. I can’t imagine what this poor mother is going through. God bless this child 🙏🏼
Why the mom asking for handouts when she can just sue the lady and make her pay for the expenses 🧐🤨
Sending prayers
hahahahahhahahha
Get him play or art therapy. This will set heavy in his unconscious for life and needs therapeutic attention from a safe, experienced, non-woke child therapist.

WHY she is not suing that daycare, those workers, or the hospital is beyond me. This is going to cost more than therapy needed!
why specifically non woke lol?? why r u trying to make this political? weird

All the infections at the hospital as well! Poor baby boy!
Was the mower texting and driving? This doesn't add up. I mowed lawns as a teen, and I grew up with my dad mowing lawns.
Unacceptable!
The mower should have been on alert at all times and should have stop the mower when a person is approaching.
How did the person driving the mower even get close to a kid?? Was he not even watching?? And why was yardwork being done with the daycare children outside??
A 2 yr old is not a young man .
Did they say the kid fell off the mower ? If so what were they doing on there. Maybe i did not understand properly.
Make housewives and sahm great again! Society is so screwed nowadays
As a SAHM I found your comment to be very encouraging!
If I was that parent I would be sueing till the cows come home
Why wasnt it secured by fence ? Especially if the kids were outside at a daycare !
June 24th? Its already December
Means the gag order has expired.
Lawn mowers are dangerous because of that and they fling objects at mach speed, like rocks or bits of metal. It could kill someone
