So they are responsible for leaving their children unaccompanied but only to the same extent as every other parent who has left their children in a similar way? They are not responsible in any way for the abduction?Comment

Originally posted by MyUserName View PostI would have to think about that analogy as it does not feel like it fits. First you would need to clarify exactly which way each person was driving and exactly how the death was caused.
Person B is not driving carefully on main road in town because he's adjusting his sunglasses in the rear view mirror and a child walks out in front of him and because he is not looking properly he does not break in time and kills the child.Comment
