If it’s on private property who gives a shit. If your idiot son wants to build a structurally questionable tree house and the parents don’t do anything about it and he dies that’s on them.
I totally understand if they are building shit on a property line and it could fall into the neighbors house or something but most of the time I’ve seen regulations used against private property owners they are building simple structures hundreds of feet away from neighbors or the edge of property and the government should have absolutely zero say over those types of things.
At that point it’s just government overreach and I don’t care for it one bit.

it’s on all of us, because all the money and effort that went into educating and raising that kid is wasted. Plus the rippling effects outward from everyone who knew the kid grieving.
That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. So because it might make his classmates sad if he dies he’s not allowed to do what he wants on his parents property with his parents permission?
Sounds like some HOA bullshit.
If I’m on my land I’m gonna do whatever I want. I’ll get drunk and do donuts on my lawn. Maybe I’ll set off 10 pounds of tannerite in my backyard because that’s what people do in the middle of nowhere.
I understand that if anything I do on my property somehow ends up effecting others then I can be held liable, but assuming it doesn’t everyone needs to fuck off.
Should my mom not have allowed me to practice my drums in the barn because the audio was escaping the property and the neighbors could hear faint drumming in the middle of the day sometimes?
Parents often take time off from work to grieve. Classes are often disrupted when a student dies abruptly. This isn’t Skyrim where someone dies and forty seconds later it’s “Must be hearing things”. Plus, as I said, letting the kid die means the resources spend raising and educating them are wasted.
My point is that “oh if he dies it only affects the family” is stupid.

It’s a shed in the middle of nowhere. What fire code could it possibly be breaking that all the other structures out there aren’t also already breaking? Good lord have you never lived outside of a city?
It’s a big empty field in the middle of 15 acres of woods. Building a shed next to the garden ain’t gonna hurt anyone any more or less than the house itself or any of the neighbors many sheds and structures built right into the woods on their private property all up and down that road.
And what does empathy have to do with anything? I’m not going to tell my neighbors what they can and cannot do on their land. If their kid died building a bad tree house that does suck for that kid and the family, but it is not my or your place to tell them what they can and cannot do on their land. Kids die all the time riding dirtbikes and quads on private property. Should we outlaw that too because it might end badly?
I prefer leaving people alone to do what they want and I want to be left alone to do what I want. I do not understand why yall are so eager to jump to restrictions and happily crawling under a boot.
Let’s say that one is in the middle of nowhere. Every other place there is also in the middle of nowhere? If they make an exception with one place the rest of the people will sue for not having the same right. And where does the line get drawn? Because once you start with exceptions the next one will say the line has to move again.

Fires don’t respect property lines.
Rescue workers still have to deal with the mayhem (and risks you have created) if you do something stupid on your own property.
Some of us have human empathy.
