Absolutely not they should be taken to the country and set free.

That wouldn't be very practical

Too sad. RIP little angel.






But how come gorilla boy parents were dragged to filth for an accident and these parents weren't for going near water at night?

I've seen the parents dragged to filth by some people, but I imagine that because their son is dead, that most people think that is punishment enough.

the parents in this case were physically with the child apparently the mum was playing with the child in the water so it wasn't a case where they let their toddler out of their sight, they were lulled into a false sense of security by the picture postcard beach and were naive to the risks

Because allowing your child to climb into an enclosure with a dangerous animal is kinda different to letting them paddle on holiday.

You need to take your eyes off a young kid for a fair bit longer for them to manage to climb into a gorilla enclosure than you do for a split second croc attack :S

Hm, they didn't exactly let the child climb into the dangerous enclosure. Sure the mum looked away for a few seconds- minutes, who knows what she was doing-replying to a message? Checking she had enough money for the rest of the day? Who knows, plenty of parents look away for a bit and children get away many times. We should also point out that the father wasn't even there but he got dragged too, they brought up his criminal history like it mattered. If they're going to be criticised for that negligent mistake so should these parents-especially them because I live in UK and even I know there are alligators around that area. How the **** did they not? If you're going to take your child near water at night at least do proper research. From what i've seen before areas with alligators don't always have signs. So yeah, their negligence was fatal. They should also get scrutiny.


They're putting up signs now though so good thing came out of this tragedy.

Honestly I don't think either set of parents should get scrutiny, more especially these parents as their baby is dead, they're never going to get over that. Thankfully the parents involved in the Gorilla incident still have their baby alive. Maybe calling for parents to get scrutinized isn't the way to go. Either incident could have happened to anyone imo.
