A mother in China who claimed compensation from a supermarket after her 11-year-old son fell over and suffered concussion on the premises has been accused of buck passing on social media.
The unidentified mother was exposed to have vandalised the Meixi Qingxiu branch of Alibaba’s Hema Xiansheng supermarket in central China’s Hunan province, where her son accidentally fell on October 19.
Video footage circulating online shows the boy running wildly in the supermarket before tripping himself up, falling down and passing out for a few seconds.
His mother took him to the hospital two days later and the boy was diagnosed with concussion and a scalp hematoma.
His mother blamed the shop for not helping her son immediately and calling an ambulance, and went back to smash the premises and claim for compensation.
On November 10, the case topped the trending list on an online platform, receiving 200 million views.
An anonymous shop staff member rejected the mother’s claim saying staff checked the boy’s condition, and asked him whether they needed to send him to hospital.
They let him go after the boy stood up by himself and said he was fine.
A staff member told the Post that they were settling the dispute with the mother.
They did not disclose the amount of compensation she claimed, but said they had offered partial compensation but she rejected it.
Lawyer Lin Xiaoming from the Sichuan Yishang Law Firm told Hunan Daily that a shop’s legal responsibility varies case by case, according to whether its floor is slippery.
Liability also takes into consideration if the shop has warned about slippery floors, and to what extent the staff assist with customers when they fall or get injured.
