I certainly feel bad for the lady - but this isn't a regular old accident. Throw a three year old on a balance beam and see how long he lasts for. I can barely keep my balance on one of those things! This was outright stupidity and endagerment that ultimately led to her son being killed in a really awful way. I'm sure she's more aware than anyone of her 'mistake', but I'm not sure in this situation that knowledge should excuse what she did.
I bet she thinks it was the zoo's fault and not her mistake at all.
