I don't care what your political ambitions or affiliations are, this is an incredibly sad thing for any parent to suffer.
That said, I wonder if the other boy was hurt or killed. I wonder if his parents sued the Edwards family because of their son's negligence.
I am certain this was an accident but how ironic that a man who became a millionaire by cashing in when someone else's accident harmed another person's child.
I can't believe that people as bright as the Edwards did not at some point consider this some sort of karma. Maybe they don't talk about it because of the terms of the settlement with the other family involved.
Obviously, I think this issue must be approached carefully and with sensitivity.
