    the parents have to be punished coz they are irresponsible.leaving a gun within the reach o a child is one thing but leaving it loaded is another.the step-father especially has to be punished severely coz he’s the most irresponsible one of the two.the game company surely can’t be sued or anything of the sort coz they didn’t do anything wrong.if they cared they wouldn’t have bought her the game in the first place especially at that age.
