Make sure it's padded. With fireproof, non-allergenic padding.

Christ, yes. And with the recommended distance between bars so they can't get their heads or chubby little thighs wedged. It's a minefield really isn't it? Thank God we've got all these laws telling us how to cage our children safely. Phew!

I got scolded as a child, on more than one occassion. Just that I knew when to duck and mum would often miss and end up a heap on the floor.

oooh please people, popped in on this last night and woke this morning to see it a whole series of dots. Please, why did this happen, I hate only getting so far into the book, before headmistress comes along and rips off the cover. It really does spoil it for the rest of us.

Basically the boiler temperature was set at 49 degrees (which is generally accepted as a temperature not to scald)
The counter argument is that it should be 60 degrees to kill legionella bacteria. This is more widely accepted as to what a boiler should heat water to.

The service engineer raised the temperature to 60 degrees and the OP's child "scalded" (not at 60 degrees, it may have caused a heat rash ). his/her hand under the hot water tap.

I posted a link in the first page which explains what happened to the OP and the common opinion on whether to heat water to 49 or 60 degrees. (opinion being 60 degrees but having anti-scald devices fitted to bring this down to 49 degrees if its really felt necessary).

Op then throws toys out pram because they are not advised to sue sue sue.
