This is a disaster that could happen with the most vigilant of parents. The signs may not have been visible so near dark. There were no barriers. The parents were there with the toddler, trying to pull him back. There's never been a problem before.

This was truly a horrific unanticipated tragedy.

My heart aches for these parents. How do they live with the feelings they must have?

Oh my heart aches for the parents...

They had been there for several days. They had walked that area.....People do not have enough respect for nature.

I grew up in Colorado. In the mountains there are dangerous places to be. My parents taught me to respect and veer be alert for any danger.....many of which were deadly. If you want to tell me the parents were naive and didn’t understand etc etc all I can say is IT IS THE 21ST CENTURY
