"...at the time of Simon's sledding accident, there was a sign posted at Lemoyne Park notifying the public that the Brebeuf Hill was not meant for sliding.
I think this suit is simply another case of the parents having to blame someone, anyone for the child's death.
Nonsense. Any child will tell you that all hills are meant for sliding...it's just that some are crazier than others.
As a kid I broke the top out of a runner sled while forcing the sled to turn tight enough to avoid the barbed-wire-topped fieldstone fence at the bottom of the hill. I was disappointed at having broken the sled, because I really wanted to go again.
