[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 87640, member: 484"] Ok, If I even consider that the 8 year old is even involved, we have this from your link. So what part of that is hard to understand? In most cases the parent is liable for the actions of the child. The age of 8 is a magic number as you are well aware. It would be my contention if you so desire to fight me in court that fine, your child is too young for you to be held responsible for the child's action. That also makes the child by your admission too young to be left alone at home without proper supervision. So, do you really want to open up that can of worms? As for the actual issue, are the pets owners responsible for the actions of the pet. Your link did nothing to address that issue now did it. You and others are side steeping the issue and focusing on the actions of the child. IMHO the actions of the child should not be an issue, unless of course you want the child protective services involved in this case. The owner of the pet are liable. As for the driver taking off the time voluntarily, you have no argument from me, I think that speaks for itself. If UPS did indeed offer him work, and he refused, then he is not out any lost time. As for pain and suffering, that might be a different matter, but more than likely not worth going after. d [/QUOTE]
