My daughter buys more for and indulges her son lots more than we, his grandparents do, SRS. As for common sense being passed on...my parents had plenty of it, but you'd never know it looking at my genius brother.

Wouldn't you want to know if a vehicle had something faulty going on if your child was killed while riding it? Maybe the steering locked up? I don't think a 5 yr old has any business on an ATV, can't believe they make them *child-sized*, but I'd still want to know if there was something wrong with it. I really doubt that money would be a motivating factor if I decided to pursue a company with a faulty product which may have cost my child's life.

Lot of judging going on. Don't think the parents aren't going to beat themselves over this for the rest of their lives. That was a very compassionate quote by the cop near the end of the article. Good for him for understanding.
