Adam, I agree. Some parents want to blame everyone except themselves or their kid.

Some things are inherently dangerous. Trains and their requisite tracks being one of them. Lakes, ponds, and rivers another. Streets and the cars that drive on them are dangerous, too, and you don't see the city putting up fences between the sidewalks and roadway. The kid should have known better than to be playing along the tracks. We can't fence everything that's dangerous.
