John P. Young is your Indiana Injury Attorney.  Mr. Young provides the full range of legal services for those who have been injured as a result of another’s negligence. Mr. Young specializes in serious injuries including, but not limited to wrongful death, brain injury, burns, amputations, spinal cord injury resulting in paralysis (paraplegia and quadriplegia) and back injury.  Mr. Young knows how medical bills and lost wages can drag down a head of household and put great stress on their family.  At Young and Young we work directly with the client.  You will speak with your attorney directly, no paralegals.  We work closely with your doctors to understand the medicine behind your injury in order clearly and understandably convey the seriousness of your injury to the insurance company or the jury. 

I want to talk today about a case which was recently filed.  This case involves the death of a baby while in the care of a baby sitter.  The loss of a child is the number one stressor in our lives, followed closely by the death of a spouse.  The burden carried by the parents is as palpable as if they were carrying a stone over a hundred pounds on their back.  It affects their every waking moment.  It slows them in their thinking and their actions.  Depression is a veil, which colors their whole way of looking at the world.  This loss is the most real loss a human can endure.  But, why file a lawsuit?  The lawsuit cannot bring back the baby.  Well the reason starts with what your mother taught you from the time you were little.  When you make a mess you are responsible for cleaning it up, for making up for the harm.  If another person is negligent (In this case they do not use reasonable care to care for the baby in their charge) and that negligence causes the baby to die, that person should step up and willingly make up for the harm.  If your child made a mess and refused to make up for the harm, or said that harm is not a big deal, or that the harm was caused by someone else when it is clear the harm was caused by your child, you would be ashamed.  You would take action immediately to make sure your child knows that kind of behavior is not acceptable.

It is the same with the baby sitter.  She must fully make up for the harm.  It is not acceptable for her to try and dodge her responsibility by saying the parents of the baby she caused to die are just trying to win the lottery.  It is shameful for her to same she is not going to be responsible for what harm she has caused. It is horrific that she would try to blame someone else when it is clear the baby would have been fine if she would have done what a reasonable babysitter would have done to care for that child. If you are ever chosen as a juror, do not allow that kind or bologna to fly.  Know that the insurance company for the babysitter is there to compensate those parents, for all their losses.

If you have been injured by another’s negligence and they refuse to make up fully for the harm they cause, call John P. Young toll free 1-888-639-5161 or contact Mr. Young on the web at john@youngandyoungin.com. We will stand with you against the those who would say that what our mothers taught us is not true.  Mom was right, make up for the harm(mess) you caused, it will make you a better person.
