Attractive Nuisance

When it comes to vulnerable trespassers, the law recognizes that some dangers are too tempting to ignore. The Attractive Nuisance Doctrine protects children who, because of their youth and lack of judgment, may be drawn to conditions they cannot understand are dangerous. On this week's episode, join Rebecca and Steve as they discuss the establishment of this doctrine along with its limitations and how the courts have interpreted and applied this principle. Whether pools of water, machinery, or even construction sites, some dangers are just too tempting to ignore, and the Attractive Nuisance Doctrine reminds us that careful oversight matters.
