My God, it hurts to even read that. So sad.

What a tragedy........ These things can be avoided though, be sure of your target. This is a basic rule. A sad story.

Makes me sick to my stomach to think about something like this. Absolutely heartbreaking.

This is ABSOLUTELY HEARTBREAKING!!! I lost my 14 year old son 5 1/2 years ago to illness, and my family was devastated. Can't imagine what the father is going thru, since it was his mistake that took his son's life.

I can't imagine losing my own child, parents aren't supposed to bury their children. The father has to feel sick...beyond belief.

That is terrible. That is the reason behind the rule BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET!!!!!!!!

Ugh, what a waste of a good kid. Your right, hurts to just read it.

I too lost my son, 19 years old in an auto crash - so I have empathy for how the family is feeling - the dad - was negligent, clearly so in this case - I know he is suffering the lost of his son - BUT - he's own stupidity is the reason - and I just can't get past that - I too know, that HE has to LIVE with this and Lord knows that is going to be punnishment enough - I know I kick myself everyday - trying to think what I could have done differently in teaching my son about driving and cars and stuff to have prevented what happend to him - but this is/was TOTALLY avoidable - and compleatly unecessary - very very sad -
