Unbelievable sm

$87 was all they planned to give us. Her medical bills totalled $800, $87 was our portion. The other portion we figured for pain and suffering. We always wanted to get pain and suffering for our daughter. This was no surprise to the owner.
Read the thread. I don't have time to repost what happened. My daughter was standing on the sidewalk in front of the owner's house when the dog attacked her.
Again, if you will read the thread you'll see that this owner has showed no responsibility for this attack (except giving us an insulting check for $87). Her dog has been loose on more than one occasion since the attack without a leash.
The police were called, and there is a police report, along with ER and doctor notes.
It is unbelievable how uncaring people are here on this board. Even though my daughter didn't provoke this dog in any way, even if she did, gives no justifiable reason for this dog to bite her in such a vicious manner. This is an 8-year-old child.
The owners should be penalized because they are allowing their dog to be loose without a leash on a street filled with young children. I don't have any sympathy for them.
It amazes me how people on this board show much more compassion for the dog that attacked my daughter than for my daughter. No one seems to care that this dog has been loose since the attack or that there were no penalties for this owner. The dog has never been impounded. A friend of mine lives next door to a dog that bit someone, and that dog was never impounded either.
I think I'm through with this board. I have been coming here for years, but for people to be so cruel here to my daughter especially is just unimaginable to me.
I will do whatever I have to do to make my daughter feel safe in her own neighborhood. I have consulted with an attorney and will probably proceed in small claims court unless this owner wants to try to settle this with us.
I pray that nothing like this ever happens to any of your children or family members. It's a terrible thing to experience for the entire family. It's even worse when people are more sympathetic toward the dog and owner than for the victim, my daughter.
I'm done here.

Unbelievable!
My sister denied she pulled my hair and pushed me and has hired a lawyer. She really is sicker than I thought. Unbelievable!
that is unbelievable
that really is. she should have explained the difference between types of massages. i would guess that she never called to followup because she was expecting a call from your lawyer!! OMG. I sure hope you let the masseuse's superior know what happened. that really is unprofessional and, IMO, shows a total lack of knowledge on their part. i would have demanded a refund at the VERY least.
unbelievable
The medical team that helped her get pregnant should see the same psychiatrist as she does. Can you imagine! Why would an MD HELP this woman have more children??!! Did he give a SINGLE thought as to what would happen to all these babies he helped her create??
Unbelievable that you let it get this bad
what a moron
Truly unbelievable! Keep us posted.

Some of these posts unbelievable!
I will say I do believe a 14-year-old is too old for a whipping but having said that, the issue about her writing a report is really silly! I posted below when my son was made to write, I think, 200 times a sentence I shall not (whatever) and when he finisehd, wanted to know could he do that again! Some children actually love to do that- you have to find what they dislike most and that is their punishment. If they love to go to the mall, take it away, if they love their cell, take it away, television, away, movies, away. Frankly I would do an overall taking away everything, leaving them in a blank room for days! Not even writing material, books, etc. This crap about her having trust issues- I was whipped a lot as a child and I am in a wonderful, marvelous marriage. That is pure bunk!!
Unbelievable. You sound like a grinch to me. Who said anything about not
being grateful? Of course we are grateful! You have NO idea what my husband goes through and how he is up before the sun rises and then doesn't come home until the sun goes down and works his tail OFF for this amazing company. They are REWARDING him for his dedication and hard work and the fact that he hasn't called in sick in 3 years so he also gets a bonus for that too.
My gripe was that why is it the govt's business to tax that at 39%?
You go through what my family goes through each and every year and you'll see things my way.
Some people just shouldn't even speak sometimes.
It is sad...and unbelievable they both died today.

Agree! Unbelievable! I'll have much more to say after midnight ; )

you will have to cut and paste - sorry - I don't know how to link it
No, I do not hate her. It's just unbelievable as what the media tries to portray her.
Second Princess Diana?
Elegant?
Unique style (this yes, but positively?)
Does the media think that we do not have eyes to see?
I bet that M is also irritated by all this.
But $ 540.-- for a pair of ugly sneakers?
What are these people thinking, especially in these times.
And she wears them at a charity event?
