Not necessarily, It just depends on how and why they were injured. A property owner is not automatically liable simply through property ownership. There would have to be some course of events that lead to your being responsible and therefore liable.

Child or adult has little or no bearing at all on your liability except in some circumstances of whats called an attractive hazard such as unsecured pools, trampolines and playground equipment on your premises.

You could be liable if a person was injured due to the property owners direct action or through inaction.

You are not liable simply because you own the property. For you to be liable you would have to either inflict the injury yourself or have caused the injury by some action you took that created the condition which led to the injury or some in-action on your part as in a failure to mitigate a hazardous condition by the means that any other reasonable and prudent person would have taken.

Yes, you can be sued, because someone got hurt on your property. The only way they can't sue is if they signed an agreement with you stating that they can't sue if they get hurt.
