Rental bathroom light cracked and injured.

We currently live in a rented apartment.
Tonight, my daughter and husband were in the bathtub and while playing with a water gun, water hit the ceiling and a light that was installed directly above them broke and fell. Fortunately my daughter was not hurt, although she was hit on the arm, but my husband was injured in three places.
I should have been more careful …, but I was also angry that they didn't put a plastic cover on the light right above the bathtub where steam and water splashed ？. When I was a child, I used to play with water splashing on the ceiling, so I think there are inadequate safety measures in a place where people are naked and unprotected ？ but I wonder if this is a Japanese feeling ？
Tomorrow, I'm going to tell the manager in a strong voice. I'm going to tell the manager tomorrow, but I'm assuming that there is no such thing as "water guns in the bathroom are taboo in America". ？
I have lived in the U.S. for only a short time, so I don't understand the common sense here. I am looking forward to your opinion.

I don't want to seem like a Kramer, so I generally take care of it myself ！
You know where I'm coming from.

A good tenant like #26 will be taken into account by the landlord when raising the rent, and both parties can feel good about living there. With a management company, though, they don't take it into account as much. I know someone who rents to Indians and when it breaks, the tenant fixes it and has lived there for over 10 years. Every time they move out, they have to spend more money and the rent is at market rate. I think it's better to have a good relationship with the landlord and live cheaply.

In the end, as #25 says,
> as in other landlords' topics, it's the tenants who have the tenants' shoulders, and the landlords, including those I know, who have the landlords' shoulders. Parallel lines everywhere.
Or.

Complimenting #26 as a good tenant is the manager's or landlord's perspective.
If tenants do everything because they can fix it, some managers and landlords will sit there.
Sometimes things that are not obvious can be taken for granted if they are done.

Yes. Makolin.　If you're a landlord who can fix up a tenant and still give them a normal rent, you should leave. The story is that if you can rent at a discount, it's in your best interest to stay. Well, if it's twisted, there won't be a deal like that.

If it's a management company, you can't fix it. They will give you a flat rate. If you are a private landlord. If you are a private landlord and you repair it and give the rent normally without consideration, you can stop repairing it. I mean, I guess they can't repair it. It would be bad if you do it badly and break it.
