[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 145149, member: 3373"] I have no idea how I would deal with the loss of a child. There cannot be a tougher issue to deal with as a parent. That being said, sometimes there is no cause of an accident. Or at least a known cause. Some (most?) are driver error, some are caused by another driver, and some are mechanical failure. In this case, from what little I actually know about the accident, there doesn't seem to be a cause. Maybe that is what is so frustrating to these parents. Blaming someone for allowing the kids to drive seems like a parental responsibility to me. It's not like they gave them a school car and told them to drive to the BB game, but don't tell your parent's we're letting your drive. Every time my kids drove there was a sense of hoping they are careful and nothing happens. Thankfully nothing ever did but the families I have known that did go through the loss of a child I could never imagine how difficult that had to be. Prayers to this family and every other one that has suffered the loss of a child. [/QUOTE]
