There was tabled seating near those cruise line windows. What if an older child decided to stand on a table or chair to get a better view out the window because the railing blocked his view? There should be no open windows accessible to children on a cruise ship just as there should be no live gators lurking in the water next to a children's beach. To me, it is common sense.

There were no open windows accessible to children. Parents are responsible for watching their children and should have enough common sense to know that children should not be held up in an open window, sat on a rail in front of an open window, or dangled out an open window.
The “banging on the window like at a hockey game” excuse was an afterthought. The photo of Chloe at the hockey game showed her banging on the window at her level, not being held to bang up high above.
Whatever the scenario turns out to be, grandpa is at fault for not being a responsible caregiver.
I want to see the video of grandpa from the time he boarded the ship until the incident.
