The part that gets me is the claim that a "reasonable" 8 year old would have known better......give me a break

I love when people say 'not to be _______, but'......and then say something that is just the opposite of 'not to be'

There's some commenting that it may be the insurance company requiring her to sue in order to recoup costs from the dad's homeowner insurance policy.

Or, it could be that the kid inherited a life insurance policy from his deceased mom and she wants a cut. Families get weird when money gets involved.

a lot of people get weird when money is involved.
but that would be appalling if her health insurer was forcing this issue...i mean, what negligence is there? the kid is 8. and to sue, when the dad just lost his wife....just a completely horrible situation.
what a betch

And indeed, she said the insurance company forced her to. They paid exactly $1.00 of her medical expenses, so she's out over $100,000 over her broken wrist.

"“From the start, this was a case was about one thing: getting medical bills paid by homeowner’s insurance,” her lawyers’ statement said,“Our client was very reluctant to pursue this case, but in the end she had no choice … Her hand was forced by the insurance company. We are disappointed in the outcome, but we understand the verdict.”"
