Kid's Club counselor dislocated my daughter's elbow....

I have to say, I dislocated my own son's elbow when he was about 3. It is actually very easy to do in young children, at least according to my pediatrician. I was walking him into preschool, holding his hand, he tripped and fell, so I ended up pulling his arm at an odd angle. I did not notice anything was wrong at the time and he did not complain about it at the time. It wasn't until about 2 hours later that his teachers called and said he was complaining that his arm hurt and not moving it. Picked him up, took him to the Dr., she popped it back into place very easily, he was fine.

So, while I am not trying to defend anything that might have happened, it is quite possible that the counselor didn't know anything had happened, it may well have been a perfectly innocent situation. As a parent, I still would have reported it to the staff and management involved so that they knew, but based on my own experience, I'm not sure I'd assume the counselor was trying to cover anything up, she may not have realized.
 
My daughter (12) was injured at the fault of the cruiseline (NOT the kids club) on the Jan 10-17 western cruise.
I wrote a letter when we got home and was contacted yesterday by Disney legal for more details.
I figured they wanted a month because if someone is going to sue DCL (and I had NO intentions of doing that), they must sue within 30 days of the cruise date. So they hold off, see if anything comes in, and when it doesn't they then contact the guest for more details.
They are now investigating and getting back to me in 2-3 weeks.

No, I was aware of that when I posted, I was trying to make you feel better. I would tell you that my dn was fine and loved it but you are not her mother either;)

Neurotic Mom...you know how it is :) .

I am actually more concerned with some of the stories I am hearing about counselors losing children.

Yes, I know but that is the minoraty although 1 lost child is not good!!
Is it just me but ( I have custody of dn) there is something even more scary about the thought of loosing them on a ship. One day on our last cruise dn was 12 then, I had not seen her for hours,not unusual(she checks herself in and out of club) And I started thinking what if?? what if she is 100 nautical miles away somewhere? And I am not usually like that!! Of course she was fine, I do take your point though, but she has always went and has always LOVED it.
