        I wonder how many children have died or injured by these challenges. I remember other stories about deaths and injuries of other challenges.

        It is crazy nonsense, but children believe it's fun. It's so very sad.

        If you just look up the challenges, some look so innocent, some outright dangerous. Children are trying to be cool and have fun.

        Me too. This is a new age of children. I don't even like hot tea. There is also a hot car challenge.

        Even the most vigilant parent can't know everything. I remember the children injured from the Kylie Jenner challenge.

        It's news because so many children are dying from these "challenges". Children believe they're invincible and they aren't.

        Parents need to know these things in order to alert their kids. This is sad and God be with her family.

        An 8 year old child of a 22 year old mother? What could possibly go wrong.

        The same things that go wrong with a 8 year old child and a 40 year old mother. Age, affluence, race nor love is an immunization.

        Yes, I saw that part. I was speaking in general. None of the other cases, that I know of, included negligence.
