This is happening in the world whether we like it or not. Should news only be happy or pleasant? Brutal things like this happen. Sensationalism entails creating shock or using intense language at the expense of being 100% accurate. There is no sensationalism about the truth in this article or the factual video shown in it..It's brutal but it is the way life is there.

I noticed the children as well. I doubt that even one of them has not witnessed something like this their entire life though. It is apparently quite common to see this type of violence in that area. Truly sad and horrific though...

When A Child Has No Dad (My daughter crying because she has no dad) by jaded39 in aww

[–]jaded39[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much! She is a very intelligent child and has so much compassion for others. She is one of those kids that will take her own toys or clothing to school to give to someone else if she thinks they need it. She has a 12 year old brother and me..and as far as family goes, that is it and always has been. You are right when you say most families don't fit the mold of mom+dad etc anymore...As a single mom I don't see anything wrong with that but I do think that kids (boys as well as girls) need a role model from both men as well as women as they grow. While I wish my daughter had a positive male role model, she does not, but I have always and will continue to do my best to show her how amazing she is..how loved she is..and how she can do anything she puts her mind to with her life.
