Need advice. My sons have kids ATV things. More hard core than a power wheels but not true ATV (they go 8 mph I think). My kids were riding in our culdesac with husband watching. Husband and oldest came inside for a few minutes and in that time, neighbors tiny 4yo jumped on his and crashed on our driveway. Broke her arm. šŸ˜© We would never have allowed her to ride and her parents NEVER supervise when sheā€™s outside. Are we dicks for not offering to cover some/all of medical bills? I donā€™t feel

Consult with a lawyer. This is tricky.

Theyre not supervising their kid and so she plays with something that's not hers and gets hurt?

Parent brings a kid to your house, isn't watching their kid as they stick their finger in your electric socket - who's at fault? This isn't even in your house...

Or better yet, you leave your car unlocked some unsupervised kid gets in and drives it into a tree... who's at fault?

Not a lawyer by any means but that's definitely not on you.

Talk to a lawyer, if you offer to help pay it will come off as you are admitting some fault on your end

Ethically liable but know if they sued us weā€™d probably be held legally liable due to ā€œattractive nuisanceā€ statues in child trespasser laws. Just donā€™t want to claim fault by offering but also donā€™t want to be an ass by not offering.
