This was a tragic accident that could have been avoided.

Yes, it is a tragic accident. However there is no way of knowing it "could" have been prevented. The mirror could very well have fallen on someone else, possibly the child's mother if there location had been reversed.

There is not enough information provided to determine who, if anyone is at fault here.

The Mom was at least 5 feet away according to the article. If she'd had the 3 yr old beside her.........

And that makes it more of a heartbreak.

Absolutely you are right..
If the mirror was secured but the child was playing ON IT..then that is one scenario..
If the child was just standing there and the mirror randomly FELL on the child..then that is another.

You are right, there IS NOT enough information here to make any judgment as to fault.

There IS enough information to feel some compassion for the family with a dead kid!

Just wanted to bump up your comment...
