Summer is just around the corner, and with the warmer weather comes the urge to head into the water to cool off. No matter where you decide to splash away the summer months, no summer day is complete without being prepared with your swim trunks.
One mother is now warning other parents, though, that the bathing suit can be a detrimental part to the perfect summer day, or at least it was for this family on their vacation.
Laura had bought her son Jack a pair of swim shorts that had the typical white mesh netting on the inside, thinking that it would be the perfect pair to for him to wear in the pool while the family was on vacation.
She didn’t expect that this clothing item would be the reason that their vacation would be cut short, though.
When she took her son to the showers to wash off after a day in the pool, she noticed that Jack had got his genitals strangled in a hole that had ripped inside the shorts, and it had gotten so bad that there started to be two little bubbles on his skin that were about to burst.

“I carried him to reception and asked for some scissors,” the 33-year-old weight loss club consultant told The Mirror. But neither she nor the hotel staff were able to free the distressed little boy from the binding netting.

She was eventually able to transport Jack to the nearby hospital, where doctors were able to get him free. Now, Jack is doing better than ever.

“Jack was very upset about it afterwards but as five year olds do, he’s bounced back,” Laura told The Mirror. “He keeps talking about it now but he’s fine. He talks about how he nearly lost his willy on holiday and goes on about the naughty netting. He’s been warning all his friends as he doesn’t want the same thing to happen to them.”
