Thankfully he is ok..he is 13 next month..and i am forever telling him to be careful when crossing the roads. the guy that hit him came to my door really shaken...felt sorry for him, my son said he wasn't speeding and that it was his fault as he was crossing the road in a hurry to get to his friends house and stepped out from behind a caravan..i think he has learnt his lesson! i told him he could now be in casualty with a broken leg..or worse he could have been killed! my husband is away for a couple of weeks too...he is not happy about it at all! my son has a large bruise above his knee and i have put ice on it and he insists he is fine. It's such a worry when they start to grow up and want more independance, you do sometimes wish you could be right behind them every where they go!
