It's also easy to jump to conclusions. No one knows how bad the kid was hurt or if he actually suffered any long term damage. No one knows if the accident was a freak accident or there really was a piece of metal jutting out from the wall just waiting for someone to rip their hand open on it. I can see paying the medical bills and maybe a little more if it really was an accident waiting to happen, but not a million dollars. Seems a tad excessive. Stuff happens. Sometimes an accident is just an accident.
