ITA- sadly, parents are responsible even in the event of an “accident”. The dog had access to the baby without supervision, that never should have been allowed.
I am saddened for the mother. BUT. It seems like more and more parents are getting away with killing their children “accidentally”... leaving them in a hot car is an accident, etc. Just recently we had two different drownings of small children- one on a river where the parents took the baby tubing and supposedly the life vest came off, and another where the mother had her baby in a Bumbo seat in a wading pool and it tipped over. These were deemed “accidents” and the parents were not charged.
It is either a tragic accident or it is a KILLING... it cannot be both. Parents do not KILL their children ACCIDENTALLY. Prove neglect or go away. Prayers for this family.
