A father of a two-year-old girl, who was looking after her, had not anticipated the embarrassment he was to face when he left his daughter in the bathroom. 
Hailing from Minehead, Somerset, Scott Webber, 28, had to rush Josie to hospital she slid the toilet training seat over her head. Webber, a learning support practitioner, struggled to free Josie's head but she complained it was hurting her.
"I thought it would just come off but her ears kept getting in the way and she was getting so mad at me," the father was quoted as saying in Metro.co.uk
After calling his wife, Laura Thompson, 29, Webber bundled their daughter into the car and rushed her to hospital. Webber walked into the hospital with embarrassment as other people laughed at Josie.
"I couldn't believe it when I saw what she'd done. I don't blame them, but one woman did start laughing and Josie didn't like it one bit! She shouted at them 'it's not funny' - but I think we can all agree it was," Webber added. 
Doctors taped Josie's ears down to her head and slid the toilet seat. After the ordeal, Webber finds the entire incident hilarious while little Josie gets teased by relatives.
"She's never going to live this one down, those photos will haunt her forever! We'll make sure to remind her of this when she turns 18 and has her first boyfriend," Webber said.
