i sympathise for the kid and i feel for the parents who needa care for him, but i tell you what, when you do ANYTHING there is a risk involved, just take a bit of responsibility for it. Its unfortunate but it happens, grow up and move along rather than looking for people to blame. the bat-maker?? try the batter, or his parents for feeding him properly so he grew up big and strong...

I feel sorry for the parents and the kid as well, but who would say it wouldn't have happened with a wooden one?

It's not as easy as that. Taking care of a person with those injuries is both difficult and very expensive.

Accidents just dont seem to exist anymore. There has to be someone to blame.
