Yes, like most parents, you do the best you can, then cringe while they make their own mistakes

But to be publicly humiliated when you're the one that did everything possible - to have that be your legacy after so many years - is hard.
Most of the general population realize these lawsuits are all about the money. How much the ambulance chasers can squeeze the insurance companies. Even the "victims" know it's a money game. If they smell more money they'll do it, but the sharks would rather grab the quick buck and not do all the work of preparing a case which will convince judge and jury.
So while it might be a blow to your professionalism, and your pride, I doubt it will be your legacy, you're much better than that.
