I feel like beating the parents.


http://www1.wsvn.com/news/articles/local/MI33510/

wow...im not a parent but who would let two kids that little ride around by themselves!
frickin idiots!

this guy probably let them sit on it while it was running and the older one hit the accel. and off they went unless it was intentionally either way he is an IDIOT or a SCUMBAG!!!

the parents should be arrested for being idiots.

Man,
              How many accidents have to happen before these idiot parents start making a helmet as
mandatory as GAS? ? ? ? ? These idiots just do not know what the hell is going on, they remember
the  gas can and they remember the kids but for some reason the helmet is the last thing they even
bother to put helmets in the back seat!!!!!!!!!

       They should be arrested and the kids should be given to some one with a brain-who was the smart guy who thought that putting a 24 month old baby with a 6 year old baby on a quad(do not care what size it was !)by a road and let them ride with out a helmet-I hope i am not the only one who sees all of the stupidity in this story.

       My prayers go out to the children and for and angel to come and slap the parents with some sense!!!

Some people should not be parents. How stupid to let a 6 yr old ride a 2 yr old on a quad. Even if it was in the back 40 acres and you standing there watching over them. Then these people live next to a main road. STUPID AND DUMB

Some people shouldn't be allowed to procriate. Stupid people! >:(

The accident occured in a low-income residential area in Pompano Beach, nowhere near any riding areas although there are several large empty lots along NW 31 Avenue (the main road the children crossed).  It's a miracle they made it across the road to hit the wall in one piece.  The mother has been arrested for felony child neglect.

Stupid hurts ,to bad it was the children and not the parents.I sure hope the kids will be ok,I think the parents should do so jail time or at least community service .Maybe parents buying kids bikes should have to watch a video on what can happen when children wreck on atv's wearing no helmet,and are allowed to ride unsupervised.After the video the parents should have to pass a I.Q.test and common sense test.

Mom has been arrested and her custody will now be questioned.

I'd like to invite everyone to comment on the Sun-sentinels web forum.

Remarkably the comments so far are not anti-hobby.

When will people learn.  I'd like to put here on a big-wheels and have her cross I-95 in jacksonville and hope all she his is a warehouse, after bouncing off 4 bmw's, 2 peterbuilts, and international, 4 h3's, and an AMC Grimlin

man the bmw's and the h3's are fine to hit but you cant let her hit a amc grimlin those things are awesome and their classics the only thing that out shines it would be a pacer.

pacer...right on...

So whats next "Father dresses boy up as deer and wonders why he got shot in the woods"  Stupid people shouldn't breed or at least come with a self destruct button

That is so awful. I hope she does lose cutody of those precious kids. We have two daughters (4 and 7) that ride with us. And they wear helmets!!!! And of course, we would never allow them to take off like that. Stupid; Stupid; Stupids. They are very fortunate that those children were not killed.

Child Crashes ATV, Mother Charged

POSTED: 7:26 am EST November 26, 2006

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. -- Authorities arrested the mother of a 6-year-old who was caught driving an A-T-V that crashed today and injured a 2-year-old passenger.

Broward County Sheriff's deputies say the 6-year-old girl was driving the A-T-V with her younger cousin when she crossed five lanes of traffic and crashed into a warehouse. The girl was treated for minor injuries and released.

The 2-year-old was airlifted to the pediatric intensive care unit at a nearby hospital.

The mother, Alicia Frazier, of Pompano Beach, was charged with one count of felony child neglect. Authorities say she faces additional charges, including traffic violations.

The 6-year-old's grandmother was granted temporary custody.

Broward Sheriff's Office abuse and neglect detectives are conducting investigations.

About damn time a parent was charged! More and more parents need to be charged with Felony neglect when these horrible accidents happen. It is a parents JOB to protect your children.  

If you click this link - off to the right hand side is the video of the news story where the mother was released. She looks like a real peice of work.

Freaking idiots!!! Which reminds me of the idiot parents we saw on our friends PRIVATE track. They just came along with their children on seperate quads riding over the jumps all without helmets!! How freaking stupid can you be? That's when you know a parent has no regards for the safety of their children. Some people should not even be allowed to own a pet ....Yet they have children?

I saw the same thing when we got back this weekend, this is just beyond stupid, this is someone who just doesn't have a friggin brain. Did you all see the quad, what a friggin idiot, who in the hell would let a 6 year old even ride that size bike, on a busy road, oh yea, now lets add a 2 year old on the back.  IDOT!!!!

Not to cause any issues here but my 6 yr old rides a 90, that one was a 50.

Its not the size its the supervision. My 10 year old daughter rides a 360 & my 700 on ocassion with proper gear and training and ADULT supervision this clearly would not have happened!
