Man this one hurts to read.
I used to read things like this and be relatively unaffected, but since becoming a father myself, it's beyond my worst nightmare.
Just the thought of it makes me have a physical feeling in my gut.

I'm sure you have control in life, but know that an internet stranger is thinking of you today and wish you and your loved ones all the best.

    Hug your kids, let them know they are loved. You never know when it will be the last time you see them.

    So true. As a former feral/latchkey kid I am no essentially no-contact with my parents because of how shit they were and still are. I don't want my kid to ever wonder if I am proud of them or love them so I never miss a chance to say it. Things can happen so fast and tragedy is all too common in the US with a child in public school.
