Kids: Today, I started my first day working at a toddler day care center....

Today, I started my first day working at a toddler day care center. At one point I decided to play "got your nose" with one of the kids. It turns out this kid has a physical birth abnormality on his face. I got his nose... his prosthetic nose. FML

Today, it was the first day of my job at a kindergarten. A boy fell over in the playground, so I ran over to see if he was OK. He got up and had a huge red mark on the side of his face. Shocked, I yelled "Oh my god, your face!" Turns out it's a very large port-wine birthmark and now he won't stop crying. FML

Today, I was wondering why I was getting strange looks all day at work. When I got to a mirror after my shift, I noticed a booger hanging out of my nose, which was visible only when I smiled. My job involves greeting people all day with a huge smile. FML

Nose job

Today, I was babysitting for a new family. The youngest said, "Wow! You have huge nostrils!" She noticed my offended look and pushed her nose up like a pig's, saying, "It’s okay! Now I do too!" FML

Today, one of the children at my daycare came up to me and bit me on the face. He laughed so hard at my scream, that he threw up in my lap. FML

Today, at work as an optician, I gave a little girl a new pair of glasses and asked her if she could see better with them. She replied, "Oh, yeah, you've got two big zits on your nose!" FML

Today, I was working at a daycare. There was a 6-year-old boy pretending to be my doctor, holding a little, plastic thermometer. He then, without warning, quickly shoved it deep into my ear. The last thing I heard was his giggle. I think I'm deaf. FML

Today, I was working at a day care center. A 5 year old boy came up to me telling me he wanted to eat my face. Confused, I asked him why. He said, "Because your face looks like pizza." FML

Today, and for the last year, I have a disfiguring scar on my nose that I’m very self conscious about. My 4 year-old niece recently noticed it. Now every time she sees me she leans in real close and says, “What’s wrong with your face?” FML

Today, at work at daycare, this kid was coughing really bad, so I put my hand in front of his mouth in case he was choking on something so he could spit it out. But nope he wasn't choking, he was sick. He puked right into my hands. FML

I literally laughed out loud because of this. As terrible as that is, I found this hysterical

Poor kid, I wonder who picked his nose? Clearly it was done well enough to pass as a real one.

Didn't anyone take the time to let you know about the kids with special needs BEFORE you began to interact with them? Whoever was in charge of training you needs to be re-trained themselves!

Just because he has a facial deformity, doesn't mean he is special needs. They probably should have mentioned it, maybe the parent had never told the people in charge because they don't want their child being treated differently because of it. They also probably didn't expect to have someone grabbing their childs face while at play care.

I maintain the guy should have been told, just as he would need to know if a kid wore a hearing aid, had a glass eye or had a colostomy, etc. Because things can & do happen, as this incident absolutely proved.

If Op didn't another kid would have eventually pulled it off somehow. Kids don't know how to keep their hands to themselves so it was bound to happen. That is definitely something the parents or other staff should have let Op know.
