Another child gets stuck in arcade claw machine...

Oy! This isn't the 1st time, so it begs the question...why have machines that continue to have this problem? The hole has to be large enough for the large stuffed animals...and where were the parents? I'm sure it took more than a minute for the child to crawl inside...

End result was that firemen got the child out and was sent home with 4 stuffed animals for his upsetting event...SMH

@NicksmomESQ  I agree, but it seems as though the situation becomes another 'status quo' and the child gets the stuffed animal he obsessed over plus 3 more...so what does that teach the child?

 

So wrong on so many levels...

that boy looks awfully big to have gotten into that machine. are you sure this is a real story instead of  photoshopped photo?

Yep, I agree where were the parents...

 

(I see so many stores and malls where the parents just turn them loose like it was a playground--in this case it was an arcade claw machine)

 

And then on top of it they reward the kid for the bad deed by giving him a stuffed animal...SMH.The parents should have gotten a "reward" of being given a bill for fixing the machine...

@Spurt  I agree about giving the parents a bill....something. As for the child, he got 4 stuffed animals...the one he obsessed over and 3 more! (I mentioned in one of my posts above)...

I don't think the child should have been rewarded with stuffed animals,  setting bad example ..

If that child was smart enough to figure out how to get in by himself, he should have been smart enough to get out by himself.
