Quote by: lsbskins1  Here is the flaw in your argument. You assume children are as responsible as little adults. |
Nowhere did I assume that. I contended that it is the parents responsibility to keep an eye on their children, or to keep them from trespassing on my property.
Surely that is not too much to ask a parent to keep an eye on the chiild until it's old enough to know not to wander into somebody elses swimming pool.

Quote by: lsbskins1 They are not. And you assume they should be made to pay for the failures of the adults in their lives. |
No, I expect the parents to be responsible, or "guilty" as the case may be.

Quote by: lsbskins1 It is the child, after all ,who will die. Not you, nor the parent you feel is the responsible party. |
And how you see that s my resposibility is what I'm calling into question. I see it as the responsibility of the parent.

No, bad Judges legislating from the bench is why the law agrees with you.
