No witnesses besides Santa? Other families with their children, workers at the store, etc.

Good, I believed his story. He had no real reason to lie about it.

I think these kind of stories hit parents harder. Before I had children, I would have thought it was sad and beautiful. After having them? It definitely has a lot more impact. As Trouty put it, the thought of losing your own...

I know first hand that losing your child hurts more than anything in life. doesn't matter what age they are. They are still your child. It leaves a hole in your life that can never be filled and I promise it is worse than you can ever imagine. My heart breaks for these parents.

I'm so sorry that you obviously lost a child. I can't truly fathom the loss and hope I never do.

I had to get some air and wash my face with some hot water after this story. Still feeling super emotional.

Thank you. My daughter was murdered two years ago. She was then decapitated and dismembered by her murderer. A few days ago, a young man that worked for me was murdered over just a few dollars. His father and family are close friends of mine. There days later , another one of my friend's son was shot and murdered over a few bucks. These two murders was within a day or two of the two year anniversary my daughter's murder.
The reason I am telling this is because losing a child is the worst thing that can happen to a parent. I know that it changed me to the point where I am a different person. The only thing that I gained from this is that I was able to comfort my two friends that had lost their sons. Being able to help my friends is the only positive thing that has come from losing my daughter. I hope that me posting this will help others understand that losing a child is the worst horror in the world. You can not understand how important it is to comfort a parent in this situation. Don't just comfort them when it happens, but take a minute every week to let them know that you support them and care. If it wasn't for me having friends and family that supported me, I
would be dead right now. That five minute phone call can save a life. It saved mine and kept me from going insane. These parents will need so much support.

Jeez, that's awful! I hope they caught the ******* that did it. It's good that you can find at least a positive in that situation. Have you considered maybe starting a support group for parents who lost children? It sounds like you might be good at it.
