While his mother was sleeping, a two-year-old child retrieved a disposable butane lighter from his mothers purse

Question:

While his mother was sleeping, a two-year-old child retrieved a disposable butane lighter from his mother’s purse atop the family refrigerator and used it to start a fire. The child, a sibling, and the sleeping mother were all killed. The lighter had no childresistant features, and those representing a third child, who managed to escape from the house, brought suit against the maker. Analyze the case using the language of both tort and contract. How does it compare to the Talon-G scenario described previously? See Phillips v. Cricket Lighters, 2004 WL 1277978 (Pa. Super.).
