I find it amazing that we so readily apply the standards of an adult to a juvenile.
All this legal bantering is only distraction. None of us were there, we respond based on our own bias based on the testimony of a biased report.
Tried in the court of public opinion! I wouldn't wish it on anyone (except those who would support it)
And just What is the ski area to do with a 10 year old who collides with an adult? Accept the adults version of the incident, and banish the youth?
An impossible situation that returns unreasonable responses.
The impression I got from most people's posts and the victim's husband is that the issue isn't so much with the kid, but the parents since they were there at the time of the collision.
