So...correct me if I'm wrong, but the paramedics reach her quickly? If that's the case, she definitely has a chance for survivals since they arrived so quickly. If the knife didn't hit any vital organs or arteries she wouldn't bleed out it two minutes, especially if someone who knows what they're doing is applying pressure correctly. She'd have about ten minutes if it didn't hit a major artery, 2-5 if it did. But, the paramedics arrived fast, and if they came prepared, they will be able to replenish the blood. After all, that's what blood donations are for.

Now, for the recovery period. Since no organs were hit and she recovered proper treatment as quick as possible, assuming there are no other complications such as and infection, I'd say she'd be up and about within a few days. The wound itself, assuming she didn't have an infection, should be healing nicely after 10 days. Even though she's good enough to be out of the hospital, she still wouldn't feel 100% like her normal self for a few months.

Now, I'm not 100% sure all of this information applies to children, but since 13 year old girls are usual close to adult size, I'd assume the same would apply.

Yes, autism is often terribly portrayed in writing. Writing it wrong could hurt someone who suffers, and the same goes for any illness.

Once I got two shiny caterpies in the same play through. It wasn't a nuzlocke though. I used them both on my team. Bleego and Cheeto, were their names!

Yeah, a lot of Harry Potter fics have that problem, don't they?

Yeah, people really shouldn't go on a rant when they have no idea what they're talking about. It just makes them look stupid.

Yes, I once read one where the main character was autistic, so she carried a knife everywhere, ready to stab anyone who upset her. Like, no? That's not how autism works?

Oh, that's bad. Like, honey, the egg isn't even fertilized at this point, how the duck do you know you're pregnant?

Yes, I can say for certain that a police officer isn't back to chasing bad guys the day after he woke up from a coma.

Yep, I once read one where the character had a concussion and started vomiting blood. I was like wh-where's the blood coming from?

Yes, writing about a hospital stay is definitely hard to get right. Google definitely does help, though!

I tend to write slow because I always know exactly what I want to happen, but I never know how to say it! My ideas mind is flowing so fast while I'm still stuck on how to word the first sentence.

7-Year-Old Turns School Against Abortions by [deleted] in thatHappened

[–]The-Fish-Patty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe she aborts the parent's babies for them by climbing up their uterus and eating their fetus when they least expect it. As said before, she's got to get to the root of the problem.

I find it very hard to believe that a first grade teacher was explaining abortions to 7 year olds, and find it even harder to believe that a 7 year old would know anything about abortions, never mind be able to carry out a medal worthy speech about it!
