Arkansas Toddler Dies in Dishwasher
An 18 month old Arkansas boy is dead after officers say he climbed into a dishwasher that automatically turns on when the door closes
|
I just don't get how this could have happened. It says the dishwasher turned on automatically when the door closed. I have never had a dishwasher that did that. My heart really goes out to these parents.
|
I always try to find the silver lining: At least he'll be clean for the funeral.

I apologize for my optimism.

Joe, could there just be same sacred things we you don't joke about? There should be and the death of a precious child is one of them.

Mine will come on automatically as well if I shut the door, lock the door which involves moving a lever on the outside, and then set the timer for 2 hrs or 4 hrs or whatever time. I don't see how the toddler got the door locked from the inside.

It makes you extremely curious about how did this happen. I don't have small children either but we do have family member's with very small ones that are over from time to time.
I imagine that tommorrow morning on the major morning shows they will be reporting on this. It will probably be then that we get more insight into how this happened. |

You're also excluding the possibility that this dishwasher may have had a manual adjustment at some point. Pretty easy to bypass the timer in most electronics, for whatever reason...that would leave the kill switch in the door as the only on/off switch.

No, off-limits topics are almost always a bad idea. Sacred cows make the tastiest hamburger. |
