Yes, you are right. My point is that their "ignorance" comes from their parents desire not to "teach" them. I see it all the time. Yes, the comment was cruel.....but not as cruel as their deaths. If someone had really cared they wouldn't have let them mount the oil "can."

Herein comes the liability aspect - was the compound properly fenced off to prevent intruders - was the lock or gate breached for entry by persons attempting to gain entry ...

Do you really think that their parents are following them around every moment? If the parents were aware that they were on that tank, then the parents are guilty of horrific stupidity. If not, I don't think you can call the parents uncaring or negligent in their duties. Parents cannot peer over their children's shoulders 24 hours a day.
