Kids Drown In Chinese Reservoir, Parents Are Sued For Pollution Fee

Please clean up after your kids

After five kids drowned while swimming unsupervised by any super heroes at a reservoir in Yunnan, China, one set of parents (who lost two sons in the mishap) have sued the local water authority and the company who manages the reservoir. The parents are saying "show me the money."

Apparently there were no signs posted stating that children shouldn't swim in that particular reserve of water. If there were signs posted, the parents feel that the children wouldn't be dead, yet. That has to be true because children always obey signs, right?

The management company isn't taking this matter lightly and they are countersuing the parents. Because the parents didn't teach their children not to swim in reservoirs (when no superheroes were around), the company has been forced to treat the water -- and that isn't free.

The parents are being sued in order to pay for what the company is calling a "corpse pollution fee.

If you can help out in anyway, I'm sure the company that was forced to clean up after the kids would gladly accept donations.
