An 11-year-old girl paid the price when she tested out a new kid craze by making slime. Kathleen Quinn’s mother says her daughter suffered third degree burns on her hands after following a recipe on YouTube to create a goo similar to that seen at the Kids Choice Awards. The mom says she played with her creation every day for several weeks and claims doctors told her the burn was a chemical reaction from one of the ingredients.

What? When I get borax on my hands it doesn't do that!
Ppl say she was allergic to something in the borax and had an allergic reaction
Make sure you wash ur hands after so the chemicals will be washed away
The borax wasn’t dissolved and when you touch it without being dissolved I
The chemicals could get on ur hands and burn you
She should have mixed the borax in first with a spoon
If I use borax I put in pinches. But when I don’t often use borax
cuz if her my friend can't make slime anymore
ITS BECAUSE SHE DID IT WRONG
Thats why u be careful because u have to read the boarax box next time when you make slime
I think everything that is fun gets ruined.
1- 3rd degree burns from slime
2- hatchimals cursing
3- Fidget spinners getting stuck in body
Why does everybody get hurt when a new trend comes out ?
This girl probably had an ALLERGIC REACTION to the borax. I have made slime with borax before and that never happened.
This is why I don't use borax for my slime
(Also I hope ur hands feel better)
Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake
Oh yeah and don't blame the slime pros , blame yourself because I know she never sees videos where they mix the borax with their hands.
I Still love it wear gloves or use a spoon simple
She made it with borax everyday. That's why she got burned
She can still play with slime use tide,bakeing soda,eye contact solution, or salt or shampoo
I hate borax
This is a lie.. borax does not give you burns unless your allergic to it. Plus she wasn’t supposed to mix it with her hands.. and also slime would’ve been stopped because without borax/contact lens solution/sta-flo/or laundry detergent you wouldn’t be able to make slime because all of those have sodium tetroborate/boric acid and they would’ve gave you burns also. Soooo
Next time use another solution like contact solution and baking soda or tide
I always make slime and I always hold it. Nothing happens to me she is just sensitive too these kinda of things. You still have to be careful with these products
Thats why i dont use borax i just use tide
I use that method all the time for like months and that has never happened to me
I mix borax with a wooden spoon
You added to much borax dumb
HEY STOP HATING THE SLIME IF U DON'T HAVE A SPOON THEN MIX IT WHILE WEARING A GLOVE NOT WITH UR BARE HANDS OK!
AND IF U ALSO DON'T HAVE A GLOVE THEN DON'T MAKE SLIME!
0:25 Nifty's Floam Slime like if u agree
Borax doesn't cause burns, wtf is wrong with these dumb people?
I’ve touched slime with borax multiple times and have never been in this situation I think she is just allergic to it
That's why you shouldn't be an Instagram hoe
I hate borax so much not becuase Its dangerous its because it doesn't make thne slime that strechy this is why we use contact solution
Use corn starch
dose it sting well Nadu nigga get a life dose it burn
I may have accidentally mixed borax with monoammonium phosphate and based on what happened, it may have reacted and turned into phosphoric acid and ammonia, the steam went in my face and I inhaled it, it smelled like pool chlorine , a few minutes later I started vomiting, on that day I vomited 4 times, the next day I still felt weak, but I was recovering, I'm so glad to survive that incident.
These people in the comments needs listen to the video
1.she used gloves it was the final result that burned her hand
2. How is she stupid for making it everyday? Look at Karina Garcia making a living off of it
After seeing this video I’ll stick to tide or baking soda and contact lens solution, borax is strait up acid
i used to make slim and i used borax all the time but i’ve never got third degreee burns i wonder why?
You touched hot water and borax
this is why I use contact lens solution and baking soda, and even then I have to be careful
