To me it’s a fairly obvious question, but yes I agree; thread shouldn’t be about my question. Any child who dies, regardless of how, is a tragic event.

I’m not apportioning blame at all. I’m asking an open ended question as to whether the parents were present.

In my mind, no it’s not reasonable. Of course parents know their kids best, so have to make a judgement based on a number of factors, including where they’re going, what are risks etc. I’m a parent of a 15 and 12 year old. No way would I have allowed either of them to go out alone at that age...

Which is why I was asking the question

It was a tragedy, but an avoidable one. I believe the kids were all 11 and younger. Were their parents supervising or even with them?
