I guess it is just irritating to me that the parents didn't step up to begin with and help the victim out to the best of their ability. That is why people can sue people I suppose. And also too, if this is a privately funded case then more power to them, it only affects the people involved. It just seems odd that someone so young can be sued at all.

I am by no means a legal expert, so I welcome any info posted.

It is the parents as well as the kids being sued:

The ruling by the judge, Justice Paul Wooten of State Supreme Court in Manhattan, did not find that the girl was liable, but merely permitted a lawsuit brought against her, another boy and their parents to move forward.
