Wow Deppity. That sheds a new light on it for me. I can relate to the parents choosing to try and save their kids in that way. Doesn't it make sense to try and get your whole family out of there? There's certainly no easy answer for the situation.

Not to interweave different issues but when I think of this issue and the Israeli/Hamas conflict the world is quick to say "the KIDS!, these are kids, people. It should be a different set of rules!" Which, I completely agree with. But... and it's a big but, in both instances, who are the adults responsible for the safety of the kids and who are the adults harming the kids? THOSE, should be the people the world should be holding accountable for their safety.
