    No one said otherwise.

    Cars and roads sucking doesn’t mean the mother’s behavior is excused. Full stop.

    You literally are acknowledging it’s a death trap, and surely you must then agree that a parent who let’s their children go play near the fucking death trap unsupervised is obviously being negligent.

    You don’t get to go “roads are death traps, and because they’re death traps parents get off scott free if they let their children die to them”

    No, in fact, it makes their behavior obviously worse because they should KNOW it was a bad idea

      Interesting that you frame a parent losing their child in a tragic accident as “getting off scot free”. There’s a huge difference between a mistake and being criminally negligent. Clearly our opinions differ in this, and I find yours ghoulish.

        Because when you get one of your kids fucking killed due to negligence, you shouldn’t be allowed to keep your other kids too. You have very clearly made it obvious you are not responsible enough to have any children in your care and CPS should take your kids away, and yes, you 100% should have legal action taken against you.

        This has nothing to even do with cars, if parents in ANY way allow their child to die due to negligence in a way that would have been easily preventable if they had simply just fucking watched their damn kid, then they deserve to have their other kids taken away too.

        That’s super basic shit in any legal system. Doesn’t matter how their kid died, they were exceedingly negligent here and fucked up super bad.

        A 10 and 7 year old are not at all old enough to be allowed to wander around roads by themselves, thats extremely fucked up and indefensible. No sane parent would let their kids just wander off unsupervised in such a dangerous way.

        This isn’t some quiet little 1.5 lane street in the middle of a sleepy neighborhood, it was a fucking busy ass 4 lane road, thats insane to let your kids play around that unsupervised. The woman 100% deserves to be charges with negligence.
