Mom Sues After 5-Year-Old Allegedly Served Long Island Iced Tea

I also want to add that it is possible that his mother knew that he was drinking it so she could sue Applebee's to get the money.

True, any amount of alcohol can harm a child, but this story doesn't fit right with me because kids can be very picky when it comes to food or drinks, so I don't believe one second that a 5 years old will keep drinking something that taste different than an apple juice....He would have told his mom that that this apple juice taste funni, maybe she ignore it and told him to eat, whos know...

I have three kids and they can be quite picky when it comes to food or drink, if something taste funni, they will say something...That's why I'm having a real hard to believing that this 5 years old will actually keep drinking it....

So for the mother suing for 75K? I hope the judge is smart enough to read between the lines....I strongly believe the mother knew that her son was drinking something different than just an apple juice....

It was probably a mistake and the person who served the alcohol should be dealt with.
 
$75,000 is very reasonable considering the nasty implications the parents would have faced should they have waited until maybe the school or law enforcement find out first of what was going on with Seth.

And besides Applebees is a very popular restaurant and theyre always busy and they tend to mix the orders and tables up. If maybe they added numbers on their tables, theyd have prevented maybe a gang of construction folks being served apple juice than the spiked tea.

I find it hard to believe that a 5 year old boy would keep on drinking the Long Island Iced Tea. It is a strong tasting alcoholic beverage and he could have made a funny face on his look when he first drank it. Also he could have said something about it. I wonder if his mother was ignoring him when he tried to tell her about his drink but I dunno. It is just I find this hard to believe :dunno:

That's what I thought so.

I can't image that 5 years old say NOTHING about the difference taste... I know the children have shape taste when they try something...

$75,000? :crazy:

I can understand that the mother of this 5 years old boy is really upset that they served her son the long island icetea instead of apple juice, I do feel for her as a mother, but suing for 75 thousands is ridiculous, it seem the mother is being too greedy...

Yes, I second that.

I would be more than glad and relieve that my child is alive and healthy than worry about sum of money but... but... but... it would be different story if my child is died.

I can't image that 5 years old boy CAN empty the icetea without say something to his mother... I find it's very odd. I know the children know the difference when they try something.
