S. Consumer Product Safety Commission http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/pubs/5098.pdf “Most adults will suffer third-degree burns if exposed to 150 degree water for two seconds. Burns will also occur with a six-second exposure to 140 degree water or with a thirty second exposure to 130 degree water. Even if the temperature is 120 degrees, a five minute exposure could result in third-degree burns.” Per the Burn Foundation for similar numbers http://www.burnfoundation.org/programs/resource.cfm?c=1&a=3 “Hot Water Causes Third Degree Burns… …in 1 second at 156º …in 2 seconds at 149º …in 5 seconds at 140º …in 15 seconds at 133º. “ Both agree temperatures above 108 degrees Fahrenheit would be painful.

“Most adults will suffer third-degree burns if

Burns will also occur with a six-second
exposure to 140 degree water or with a thirty
second exposure to 130 degree water. Even if
the temperature is 120 degrees, a five minute
exposure could result in third-degree burns.”

“Hot Water Causes Third Degree Burns…
…in 1 second at 156º

Both agree temperatures above 108 degrees Fahrenheit would be painful. Back, chest, arms and face don’t sound right for just a shower, but I could be wrong.

I am not going to get into all the other ramifications of this situation. Any home that has children or the elderly should make sure the hot water is set at 120 degrees. In most areas this is the code setting for a hot water heater. This is why all hot water heaters should be set no higher than 120 degrees.

If anyone is badly injured, especially a THREE YEAR OLD, seek emergency help. Not having money is not an excuse. So, let this child suffer from burns all over her body because they don't want medical bills? YOU SICKEN ME. Id like to order a house call on you just to see what is exactly going on in your home. Please god let your children be okay. You are whats wrong with everything. You need to seek help... fast especially if you have children! Jonathan Smith,

If u have no money or no insurance then you should have already been on some type of government insurance/welfare. There are no excuses for this period!

Getting burned in the shower, the child may have turned the water to hot instead of cold. But, where was parental/adult suprevision? Medical insurance or not, if my child needed ER be it known they would GET it, and deal with the bills later. Something is wrong with this story. I don't believe all the facts are out you. I feel bad for the children - they all deserve better than this. I definitely don't believe the children are better off with the state. Just a very sad story. GEE people, and guns weren't even involved (sarcasm) - go figure. There seems to be a whole lot of facts missing here.
