This is how a few greedy, retarded parents ruin it for the rest of us....
From ocregister.com -- HUNTINGTON BEACH – The parents of a 5-year-old girl have filed a claim against the city after the girl fell off the monkey bars, breaking her arm and chipping her tooth.
According to the claim, Emma Gallardo was playing on the monkey bars the afternoon of March 8 at Bolsa View Park on Brighton Drive when she slipped and fell on the compacted sand.
Playing and getting hurt once in a while is part of growing up. How else are children supposed to learn how to asses risk if stupid, helicopter parents constantly protect them from every little thing? Over-protectiveness though, is a parental choice. I think they are idiots but, they have a right to be idiots. My problem is when they sue the city because they absurdly expect a no-fault life to be provided to them. They think that anything bad that happens is always somebody elses fault without ever considering the possibility that they might be negligent parents, bad things sometimes happen to good people, or that their dumb kid might simply be a screw-up at everything. Why should the city pay for the negligence of the parents or the monkey bar-incompetence of the kid?
Now, thanks to these morons, the city of Huntington will probably tear down all the playgrounds in the city to avoid other law suits from entitled parents. Thanks a lot, jack-asses!

They did it for the money,not for the child. The opportunity presented itself, and they ran with it. Years back they would have been laughed out of court. Today, well anything goes. How far we've come.
