I think people are so quick to point figures when it comes to stories of children being hurt or killed because they're afraid. They're terrified the same thing could happen to them and so they grasp for reasons why it could not. "This would never happen to me. I stay at home with the kids!" The same sort of nasty comments appear after any story about a child being injured or killed, be it an auto accident, a drowning, a murder, etc. People can't stand the thought that horrible things happens, that they don't have always have control, so they're quick to blame. Of course, some people are self-righteous a*holes, but I like to think they're the minority.
