4-year old children can be sued and held responsible in civil courts in the US now. This is crazy.
“A parent’s presence alone does not give a reasonable child carte blanche to engage in risky behavior such as running across a street,†the judge wrote. He added that any “reasonably prudent child,†who presumably has been told to look both ways before crossing a street, should know that dashing out without looking is dangerous, with or without a parent there. The crucial factor is whether the parent encourages the risky behavior; if so, the child should not be held accountable.
No. The crazy is the one who sued the 4 year old.
