Today, I met my boyfriend's family for the first time. I was playing with his little sister by grabbing her arms and spinning her around. On one turn, she started screaming in pain. It turns out I dislocated both her shoulders. FML

Halloween

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

This is horrible, but I laughed. Why is physical pain so damned hilarious? XD

That's why you either don't toss a child around, or you grab her by the torso under the armpits

This actually happens a lot, I know it's embarrassing, but try not to dwell on it too much. And for future reference, grabbing under their armpits around the torso (as 43 said) is much safer.... not only will their shoulders not dislocate, but you don't have to worry about your grip slipping and sending the kid flying, you have better control.

Oooooooh ouch, that's embarassing. At least dislocations are easy to fix. Better than breaking her wrists!

It's okay. My dad accidentally popped my arm out when I was little doing the same exact thing. She'll get over it and it'll be a great anecdote.
