The article said she had a chicken coop and is online a lot. Is she one of us? I can't imagine the horror of losing a child.

Swimming pools are nothing more than a lot of heart ache and liability.

How awful to not only have your child die, but to also have to go through it with people blaming you for it. As a parent myself my guess is that she's probably already wracked by guilt without having the newspaper let the world know she may shoulder the blame. I feel for her and my heart goes out to her.

The Poor Woman! Losing a chilkd would be devasting, but finding out later that people are acusing you of what you probabably already are dealing with guilt wise is awful. Whether she was on the computer when it happened, or on toilet, or on the phone, or in the kitchen making dinner, or right there as he went in, there is bound to be guilt. I'm sure every mother would feel racked by he "what-ifs", I think it is horribnle some people are "blaming" her.
