>It absolutely is not lazy parents and this victim blaming is ridiculous. I have no idea where the concept that parents have to be 100% attentive to everything their child does at all times, but it is completely unrealistic.
I have a child. I remove the safety key when I'm not using the treadmill. I am not 100% attentive at all times and I don't need to be. It is not ridiculous to expect a parent to take basic measure to protect their child from dangerous objects around the house. Knives are placed out of reach. Chemicals are in a locked cabinet. The treadmill has the safety key removed.
>And for the record, the death happened while the treadmill was in proper use, so while it's true some of these accidents may have been prevented by removing the safety key, not all of them would have.
Citation? The CSPC has yet to release any details that I've seen.
