Yes it is her fault for not recognizing perceptual limitations and acting
accordingly.
She knows that, unlike the younger generation that believes the world
should be perfected for them...or else.
Had it been a root in the woods, same thing, but no one but God to blame.
Blame God..He doesn't care, nor will He pay...nor will He remove
offending roots.

Because one man be blind, there shalt be no traffic in all the world?
..don't think that'll ever happen. [If I'm wrong, we're all doomed]
So maybe someone should have chained Mom to a chair.
Somehow, I think she'd rather be dead than "protected"...like... the day I
can't go for a walk, just shoot me, I'm done.
The only way you won't make a mistake is to have no choices to make.

This is all well and good -- and typically I keep my mouth shut on something
like this, but I had to chime in. Consider those that have challenges,
albeit physical, handicapped or whatnot...little things such as broken
pavement are true hazards. My Mom at 77 years of age is in pretty good
physical condition, yet she has a depth perception (due to a macular pucker
in one eye -- which has since undergone surgery...we're hoping for great
results). She *couldn't* see the height difference in two slabs of pavement
(which are the sidewalks where she is in florida) and she took a tremendous
spill. Granted...that one or two inch difference to you and I is nothing.
But her fall was so bad that two folks ran right over and helped her up. She
wound up with a black and blue eye, swollen spots all over the side of her
head and body...and was quite sore (and almost petrified) to go outside
again. She did blame herself but if you look at the big picture...is it
really her fault because of her limited eye sight? Things need to be
relatively safe for everyone, not those that are lucky enough to be
physically fit to not have any "issues".
Sorry...struck a chord.
