If your toddler crawls through it and drowns in an adjacent bog. You
can sue the manufacturer (or installer) of the doggie door for not
warning you.

"More than a hundred children have died or been seriously injured in
the last decade after squeezing through tiny pet doors and getting
into swimming pools or other dangerous places, new research has
found. "

"a Florida lawyer suing a pet door manufacturer for the family of
two-year old Matthew Ranfone."

Say what? Where were the parents when their two-year old was doing
all this?
If a parent leaves the regular door open a little and
the little tyke opens the door and crawls/toddles out,
is the door manufacturer and/or carpenter going to be
responsible?

The responsibility of the parent trumps everything else.
Thats certainly the rational common sense view. However there are many
thousands of lawyers trolling for possibilities to "help" us...


The trouble with halfwit parents is that they have dimwit kids, and they
are extremely fertile.

Must be nature's way of compensating for
losses. The dumb masses have to be more
fertile to replace lost children.

We haven't seen "mother forgets about kid in hot car" for a while. The
season's upon us, though.
