As horrible as it is to imagine losing a child, what I can't imagine is ever suing private individuals, neighbors, over what is clearly an accident. The other girl was only superficially harmed from the crash, so it's likely their daughter's death was one of those freak cases: hit her head just right even though she had a helmet on.
Most active kids probably engage in activities that have a non-zero chance of death or serious injury on a regular basis. 99.999% of the time, if injuries result, they are minor, but there's always going to be a few instances where the outcome is horrific.
Society is worse because of the lawsuit (and fear of lawsuit) culture this type of behavior results in.
- tnecniv 3y agoEvery few years you hear about a kid dying playing baseball (the last major league death was almost a century ago despite the ball flying around a lot faster and hundreds of thousands of games are played by people of all ages every year). It’s certainly awful, but imagine suing the league over a freak comeback hit.
