    Thread title is very misleading.

    She was only 13, barely in her teens and most definitely a girl. A very stupid one at that. I resent the compo culture in this country which some judges are thankfully starting to fight back against but in this case Veoila should have taken measures to prevent this stupidity. They didn't.

    Surely no company will ever be able to cover all eventualities?
    People are VERY stupid, why should a company be held responsible for the actions of individuals?

    Where is the line drawn between personal responsibility and responsibility of the company?

    There has to be more to this story, I find it utterly unbelievable that such a high figure can be awarded to somebody for doing something ridiculous. It doesn't appear to have damaged her life in any way.

    If she died or ended up with permanent brain damage she still wouldn't deserve a f*cking cent :confused::confused:

    If she died she wouldn't be awarded anything.

    Responding to a friend who suggested she take down her social media account, Ms Kelly wrote: "I know where use are all coming from but I'm not f***ing hiding me b****x will anybody bad mouth me or my child f*** them all haters will be haters."


    I really do hope Luas are going to bring this case to appeal for the awarding of a truely staggering amount of money because the stupidity of one individual ...
