Then no doubt there will be no comments that the child was tresspassing at the time of the accident and if he and his mates hadn't have been breaking the law at the time then the accident wouldn't have happened ...... Looking around a building for your ball is one thing, climbing up onto the roof with a group of your mates is another. It's like suing the manufacturer of a match after you burn yourself commiting arson.
