Very sad occurence (53)
Topkaz: What a tragic most horrendous thing to happen to anyone let alone a two year old child ,
Disney said that it was a very rare occurance for alligators to venture where child was taken but it was still a safety hazard for the public .i just think that it shouldofbeen closed off and not to permit public especially children even accompanied by adults. It's on,y when something tragic happens that safety procedures are better met .
So so awful .words cannot convey.
Yes. Beyond belief what everyone involved must be thinking and feeling. Horrible, tragic situation. I do feel for them, it is heart-wrenching. No doubt about that. Thanks for this post--a reminder that there were several factors.Disney said that it was a very rare occurance for alligators to venture where child was taken but it was still a safety hazard for the public .i just think that it shouldofbeen closed off and not to permit public especially children even accompanied by adults.

rohaan: I will willingly deflect any negative comments made to me for the sake of getting parents to wake up and smell the coffee. Preventing children from being killed by alligators and gorillas is a WAY higher priority of mine than being concerned about "hurting someone's feelings". In fact, the two cannot even be compared. If you are out and about with toddlers then you need to be ON IT. ALL THE TIME. Every split second, because that's all it takes.
i submit that they were on it. the parents were from out of town and unaware of the danger in that cove. no one from the resort alerted them of the possible dangers that may exist. the signage was inadequate and spaced too far apart. in addition, it was dark outside and so the signs are actually a moot point as the parents never saw them.
the latest from disney is that they are going to mark the area better and look at their policies. the parents were ON IT, it was the resort that dropped the ball and caused the horrific death of a little boy. the blame squarely rests with disney.

I just can't begin to imagine how the family feels right now and this will haunt them for the rest of their lives.

rohaan: I am not unsympathetic to the heartbreak of and for those parents. It is mournfully sad. What bothers me no end is this trend of toddlers and even younger dying by being left in a car, left to wander into water, traffic, etc...This is on the RISE, despite all the horror stories and warnings. People need to be vigilant about their children!! Youngsters need to be watched ALL THE TIME. Since we as a society are armed with knowledge that they are slippery, and get away fast, then it is exponentially necessary to keep them in physical parental control. (It's not like the parents of today don't have the info--there is PLENTY.) I really am not a mean person, but if you ask me, given the fact that society has ample knowledge of how kids behave, there is NO reason to let these events happen. NONE.
There is a conjunction of failures here that leaded to the lost of the life of this little child Rohan.
Again: how in earth would Disney have a lagoon/lake with gators in a place that is visited by lots of people and manly children!
Are the parents responsible too? yes they are. They always are.
Had the parents seen the posts? "Not swimming"
Perhaps they did, perhaps they did not.
Should Disney have posted "Be aware of Gators"
Then again what if the parents had not see the sign?
Disney should not have had gators in that lagoon or they should have fenced that lagoon or..yet Parents need to be more cautious regarding to their children’s safety with out being paranoid.
In this particular case I would place the most responsibility to the Disney Resort.

no, parents aren't always responsible. there are events that can take place without the parents knowledge of the inherent danger. and this just so happens to be one of those times.

"They always are" when their children are under their watch and something goes wrong.
In this particular case, the family was enjoying a movie out doors but the little boy went wandering around.

I had a very emotional dream last night. When I woke this morning, I decided that it is only fair for me to be more open minded regarding this case. I am not sure yet whether or not I agree, or fully agree, with everything you, and others, have to say regarding my posts, I am, however, willing to weigh all parts and points and be as empathetic as possible, and yes, I do feel a terrible sorrow for the family.the latest from disney is that they are going to mark the area better and look at their policies. the parents were ON IT, it was the resort that dropped the ball and caused the horrific death of a little boy. the blame squarely rests with disney.

Clapton’s son, Conor, who he had with model and actress Lori del Santo while still married to Patti Boyd, died at the age of four years old after falling from a window in del Santo’s 53rd floor, New York City apartment. The window was a full wall window that had been removed by a janitor to let fresh air in while he worked. Conor was playing hide and seek with a nanny and running from her when he ran into the room with the open window and straight out of it.
please tell me from the above paragraph how the parents could possibly be responsible for conor's death.

As a parent I always felt and I was responsible for my little children well being, still I do feel responsible (even if I should not be) for the well being of my grown up "children".
Accidents to children happen but many of them can and should be prevent and the first ones interested in it ought to be their parents.
If you think parents are not responsible for their children accidents (including the topic of this thread) that is fine to me.
Let us agree to disagree.

They are searching for the boy but I hate to say it but that kid is a goner.
First thing this morning I began monitoring Disney Corporation stock (DIS) price fully expecting it to crash today but instead it's been in the green all day and it's currently up 24 cents as I type this. I was actually thinking of taking a short position in the stock but decided to wait for some confirmation and boy am I glad I waited. The boy and his family came from Nebraska.

Disney said that it was a very rare occurance for alligators to venture where child was taken but it was still a safety hazard for the public .i just think that it shouldofbeen closed off and not to permit public especially children even accompanied by adults. It's on,y when something tragic happens that safety procedures are better met .
So so awful .words cannot convey.
