You are so right – what happened was so terrible. I remember seeing the picture of the two children and then reading the headline and feeling my blood turn cold. This is not a time for blame. This is a time to mourn that something like this happened. That poor family. What they will go through every day of the rest of their lives is unfathomable and it’s just not right for people to add to whatever it is they must already feel.

I will never be able to envision that woman’s screams. And I hope I never have to.

God bless that family.

All I can do is pray for the parents. No one should ever have to suffer this amount of pain and despair. May God have mercy on them and everyone involved.

There are no words. I can’t fathom the pain the parents must have felt. It’s not unexpected that others would lash out at the parents for not protecting their children even if there’s no basis for blame. The feeling that something could have been done to prevent this random tragedy is just that, wishful thinking. Whether the SAHM should have needed a Nanny at all is a completely different discussion and one that could be debated case by case. At the very least, this tragedy will prompt parents to scrutinize priorities and hold our kids a bit closer.
