Then a few days later, the family received a $132,000 claim from the city of Overland Park’s insurance company, saying that the piece had been damaged beyond repair.
“You’re responsible for the supervision of a minor child… your failure to monitor could be considered negligent,” the insurance letter read in part.

You break it, you buy it.
Parents should have watched their little monster better.
No sympathy.
Normally I would agree. But not in a community center where kids pretty much have free reign..

If it was in a play area with slides and balls and toys, I would agree.
This was in the lobby area.
Parents should own up to their brats!

This is why we have insurance.. I think they would have a case against the community center for hurting the child.
If a kid gets hurt on my property because my mailbox wasnt secure or whatever my insurance is going to pay them.

The insurance company is probably #ting bricks right now, because it didn't first ensure the safety of the piece it insured for 132K. The insurance company should have protected their investment and made sure the valuables were bolted done, roped off and out of reach of clever toddlers in a community center venue.
But if the parents had been watching their kid, this would not have happened. Yes, you have to insure because parents are feckless *blanks* nowadays, but the onus belongs on them.
