Twelve years ago, I worked with a fellow who was in a similar
situation. His grandkids had received new fourwheelers for their
Christmas. They, three of them on two fourwheelers, ages from 6 to 8,
were chasing each other on his front yard. They were so distracted in
their play that BOTH drove right out into the street in front of a
car. Killed all three. Parents were devastated but considered the
driver of the car to have been in the wrong, because he killed their
children. They shared none of the blame for giving their kids
fourwheelers and allowing them to ride unsupervised next to a busy
road. I sincerely hope that you never have to experience what my
friend went through at the death of his grandkids.
