When I was a kid if you got your head stuck in something you were left with it as a lesson.  It was a simpler, crueller time and we were all better for it. Coddling these kids is going to lead to disaster. Think I'm wrong, see me in 25 years or so when she hits the mainpage again.

The child's name is Quinnley. She has suffered enough.

I realize it sounds judgey, so maybe some people who have kids can answer me this question.

Do you run to the hardware store and free your own kid, or do you call emergency services? Looks like she had a good 2 inches of neck clearance.

Probably stay away from the 6 inch cutoff wheel. Tin snips was a good call.

My first thought was hardware store. I used to have some gardening scissors that could cut through practically anything, and there'd be several choices like that. Second choice, I guess, would be to bring her directly somewhere I'd know they could help. 190th choice would have been calling emergency services, because it wouldn't be necessary.

It would depend on how badly my wife was freaking out.

I would probably start with lard or shortening to see if could be slipped off (difficulty: something digging into the skin). If that didn't work, the tin snips would be the way to go.

And I'm mean enough to put some strawberry icing on her head take a picture for posterity.

I was going to ask the same question. This wasn't an emergency, so calling out the fire department was a waste of resources. Just run her down to the hardware store and I bet someone would love to play hero for free.

If you have to pay for an ambulance in this county, I hope these folks have to pay for the fire department!

I would not have called anyone. Take a few pictures for posterity and then get the cutters. Maybe. My theory is she got it over her head without cutting, it should come off the same way. Best to do everything to save the pan as well.

How is it even possible to get your head stuck in an angel food cake pan even if the center was removed? They should have made her wear it for a few weeks as a mark of shame like a dog from the vet with a protective collar so they don't gnaw on themselves.

When in doubt call 911

Definitely don't run to the hardware store, maybe try cutting it yourself but I would hesitate to do that because what if that freaks out the child, or you get a rough edge then can't finish the job or end up bending instead of cutting and tighten it around her neck

Wasn't my patient but she told me how she had a Kwire in her toe as a form of fixation(Google has pics) after surgery, it fell out. They put it back in, at home, after it touched the ground

Honestly it depends. Some days you feel like a parent that can solve anything. Some days you can't even comprehend the bullshit your children cause, let alone handle it.

If she didn't have snips and needed to run to the hardware store, but also didn't have another adult to watch the kid, how does she strap the kid into a carseat with the guillotine around the kid's neck?

Calling 911, or at the very least the non-emergency help line, was the right choice.

I'm not sure if snips like that are a tool most folks commonly keep around their house, and if they do, are they going to be confident they can cut in such a way that they can peel the metal back as they go without cutting the person under it?

The possibility for making a bad situation worse seems pretty high here, so for most people I am pretty sure emergency services is the right call.

I used to go to band rehearsal at a very posh home in the nice part of town. Very hotsy totsy...One day, it snowed a foot and I went anyway.

I used to park in the back on the house down an alley way. I get in fine. But going home? I got stuck in the snow. It's 12 midnight and all I want to do is go home..

All I needed was a snow shovel to dig my way out. So I asked the owner of the house to borrow his snow shovel.

Jeff: Snow shovel? I don't have a snow shovel. I have landscapers!
Me: Well how am I going to dig my way out?
Jeff: You're not. Just call AAA....

It took AAA 6 hours to come get me. I had to stay the night...

If you're leaving the skin on, you can get that same crispy crunch by cooking from frozen with a dry rub that contains a little baking powder and using a little butter spray before popping them in. Just finish iat off in the broiler.
