Hi i am worried sick my child and i have been stripping the wall paper off his bed room walls and there was like a gritty paint underneath. I didn’t think anything of it and me and my 11 year old starting scraping it off the bedroom walls.I then used a dust pan and brush and hoovered it all to clean it up and it wasn’t till later a after speaking to my sister she mentioned i should of had it tested before doing that. Absolute panic set in and i rang my council and they agreed to come out and test it.Turned out it was chrysotile asbestos then explained that the percentage of asbestos in it was 1-3 %. They sent someone out to clean the room and seal the walls and done an air test which they said was of low level like they would expect.The guilt and worry i feel for exposing my son to this and allowing him to help is unbearable and everything i am reading online is making me feel even worse.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
