I'd be one pissed off mama.
I feel bad for him, and pissed at his parents. 7 years old and playing with flammable objects? How friggin' ignorant are they?
Both my kids know damned well they had better not even TOUCH my lighters/matches, or they'll get their asses whooped. Plain and simple. It may seem like an ass whoopin' is too much for that, but in my eyes, lighters are dangerous, and I give spankings when my kiddos put themselves or others in danger.
But yeah, the poor kid has to live with the fact that his fire killed people, and burned thousands of people out of their homes. Good job mom and dad! :lol-sign:
