8-yr-old sues his parents

What's worse, his parents are encouraging it.
Teddy Harrison was 3 years old when he flew from his mom's SUV during a wreck. He suffered a serious brain injury that left him permanently disabled.

The boy, now 8, is suing his parents — with their support — for failing to buckle his car seat properly.

The Anoka County family hopes Teddy wins his suit, which would force the family's auto insurance company to pay $100,000.
And that, my friends, is the nation (or for me, the state) in which we live.

The lure of free money is something few can resist.
Wonder what that will do to their insurance rates? Know what would be poetic justice? If they got cited for child endangerment and had to pay a fine of $10,000.

Do you remember that 14 years ago you and your siblings "had to" settle with the insurance company to prevent you from suing Dad when he slid on the ice and hit the tree? I tried to deny it but they insisted on sending money and getting a signed statement. Yep, a sad commentary on the settlement. I hope they lose.

Hmmm...."on the settlement"??? I don't even know what I meant by that. See what happens when you care for babies for too many years...
