Shouldn't he own up to his own mistakes as it sounds like the kid (and the father) both knew it was dangerous.

Maybe the kid/father didn't realize that it was unsafe until after the injury, and only then did they find out that the town had been previously warned about the unsafe conditions. Based on only the linked article, I don't think that anyone can say that the kid/father knew it was dangerous.
My first post here was an attempt to correct a misreading of the linked article. According to the article:
1)The kid was not hurt through
his use of the rope swing.
2)The lawsuit claims that it is the town that had prior knowledge of unsafe conditions, not the boy/father.
I don't know what really happened before, during or after the incident, so I don't know who is at fault, if anyone, but I do know what the article says.
