No doubt that is was an unpleasant experience for you and that had he been a little more perceptive this wouldn't have happened. The thing is he was just a little child and children are generally fools. They are also very apt to change and learn from their mistakes. I can assure you, next time the child is around someone else's property he will watch where he is going. The method through which he learned that was incorrect though. No one needed to get hurt.

You need to calm down. Error is an inevitable part of everyone's life. When a child errs, they are corrected and told what they did wrong. They are not physically beaten and screamed at. If this were a common occurrence, the child would likely grow up to become a very angry person who beats their children for doing honest mistakes as well.

He accidentally slipped and hit your car. That's an honest mistake. He was only a little child, he could not immediately percieve the dangers present (wet mop for instance). I assure you he was not trying to destroy your car. If he was, then I could understand your anger, but I couldn't condone kicking him square in the chest. If you must, then hit him lightly, but hard enough so he gets the message.

[QUOTE="TheChosenTurkey"][QUOTE="argetlam00"]Yes they can. Welcome to the real world. The child tripped over YOUR objects, which could easily be argued that were put in unsafe positions and was almost killed. Not only that, but your assault on the child afterwards only strengths the case.ex-mortis

Absolutely unbelievable. Real world? Ha! Worlds controlled/in the favor of children is definitely not the real world.

You support this? If I sent my son (No I don't have one) to your house and had him trip over your unsafe positioned shoe, you would just shrug it off and think "Ah, it's the real world."

@ V Because a serious discussion was suppose to be funny. :/

And again, if you don't believe (Argh...) then why argue/debate?

[QUOTE="TheChosenTurkey"][QUOTE="warownslife"]Its fake.

Yes you would be, not only is it your property, but it is your fault the child tripped. Don't try to blame it on the child for they are basically never at fault under the law.

[QUOTE="argetlam00"]

Also, if your story is true, why are you out of jail? Your actions should have locked you up in a cell for quite a while...

Also, if you want to feel like you've "craked da codez", be my guest.

Oh and I'd be glad to provide the facts.

Stop complaining, you should be lucky to be alive. There are many parents who would have murdered you if your story is true, which it isn't. Infact, I don't even see anything the child has done wrong. He accidently tripped and tried to save himself from landing on nails. If he was my kid, I would have hammered those nails in your eyelids.

It's alright, I'll be able to respond to you either way. :P Are you bringing up the suggestion that he was walking recklessly around the car where it was possible that he would fall? If so, then I'll take that into consideration. Still, I don't think it was his want to fall, so that doesn't seem relevant, it doesn't factor into his blameworthiness. The circumstances in which he fell however, may indicate responsibility on his behalf. Also, what he did during the fall (grab onto your car) from the slip could be important, if he did it involuntarily that is. Which is also why I'm trying to get information about the nails. Well, position, foreseeable dangerousness if someone were to fall on it, etc. I'm trying to evaluate the level of fault that the child possess (for myself anyway) based on what I'm learning from our exchanges.T_P_O

However, I am curious about your evalutaion.

You must understand that you are an adult and that the child is a child: children are usually careless, accident prone and irresponsible. I'm sorry to hear about your car, but seriously, you should have let him go. It would be better had you just given him stern warning to pay attention.ghoklebutter

Sorry man, don't know how to quote you without going over the 5 limit.

If he wasn't doing his smug "happy go lucky" I'm a little child walk, he would have noticed the mop on the floor. I took the inititive to pick up the polish, shouldn't he watch where he's going? He didn't need to fall.

The box of nails is a box of nails. What do you want to enquire about?
