What hurts the most is the enemy is not even a human being that you could just simply charge and put to justice by getting the culprit in jail. Instead it was a beast of water and land.
Now, they are getting all these hate comments for something that was beyond their control. Some people say they should be charged for child endangerment. There a lot of other ugly things being said about the parents of the victim. Here is just one of it:
Police should be investigating Nebraska parents for negligence and neglect. Their irresponsible parenting caused death of their son.

However, in response to the negative comments on the family of the victim, here are some of the compassionate support from other parents who think that the boy's parents shouldn't be blamed for the incident:
Buzzfeed made a report of others who also posted photos of their children playing near the lagoon. This is to show their support and to extend their condolences.
To the Graves family, much heartfelt condolences. May you be comforted in your hour of your grief.
