Toddler dies from freak accident in his backyard

While freak accidents do happen, I’m not sure if this mother will ever be able to forgive herself, having taken her eye off her baby for just long enough for him to get into a fatal situation. Who would think that a soccer net in one’s background could be a death trap for a toddler?:

A 21-month-old Collin County boy hospitalized last week after getting tangled in a backyard soccer net has died, officials said.

    It was probably almost as dangerous, statistically, as each and every time you put your child in your car and dial up someone on the cell phone as you drive down the road. Thank you for judging. Please, go to church and judge some more while you thank God that it didn’t happen to you. Go hug your children — and be sure to augment the talent they lack with the ignorance and self-righteous indignation (disguised, of course, as empathy) that only you can contribute so well.

    Gosh. I thought I was just stating facts. Was there anything I said that wasn’t TRUE? There was no judgement involved.

    Wow, talk about self-righteousness. You’re reading *way* too much into it, William.

    William is correct! You people are wrong to EVEN say the mother will never be able to forgive herself for taking her eye off her son. THEY WERE ALL ASLEEP!!! So, yes, there was something that wasn’t TRUE!! She is hurting like you can’t even imagine. But we appreciate you pointing that out.
