Who watched Oprah today!

[Megan's Mom]

Who caught Oprah today? It was a very moving show with those ladies who's children were killed. If you didn't see it you really should try to catch it the next time it is on. It is at least a three hanky show.

I had to turn it off when they showed that little baby that had been burned in the car. I've never seen anything so horrifying. The poor little guy didn't even look human.

I watched it and cried the whole time. I can't even imagine the grief that those mothers have suffered.

The first woman they had on is still suffering so much, you could see the pain in her eyes. I wonder if she'll make it? I don't know that I would.

I'm glad I did not watch it. I cannot watch stuff like that. I dwell on it too long.

I saw the last half hour with the woman who left her kids in the car for two minutes and they set the car on fire. It was heartbreaking to see those kids' burns, especially the baby. I hate to say this and I hope I don't seem heartless, but I think that baby would have been better off dying. He really has a hard painful life ahead of him. He'll be on my mind for quite a while. I wish them well.

Did you see the quilt at the end of the show. That was such a great idea that could be used regardless of the situation. I also thought that it might have been better if the youngest boy had not made it. I felt so sorry for him.
I kept trying to take a nap while it was on but it was like watching a train wreck you couldn't leave it.

I don't normally watch the show. But I did today.

I don't have any children but I can imagine the devastating emptiness the women whose children died must feel.

I could see how joining support groups have helped these ladies. The second guest did a fine job of encouraging the first guest. I was impressed with her.

The woman whose children were burned is paying dearly for those two minutes of leaving her children in the car. It must be a continuing nightmare to face this every day.

A very sobering show.

I only caught the end of the lady who's kids got burned. What exactly happened to them?

 

[newholiday]

The lady left the kids in the car for 2mins while she ran in their house to bring in their pet bird. 1 of the boys got a hold of a lighter and lit a piece of paper.
I too feel badly for the little one.

That was an incredibly sad show. My heart went out to them all.

 

[Pembo]

Thanks newholiday! That is horrible.

It was so very sad, my DS died as young baby from a disease, but I could not ever imagine what these Mom's went and are still going through. I am so blessed. My heart goes out to them.

 

[Micca]

That was rough. I had to turn it off.

 

[BabyLove99]

I watched. That was SO sad

 

[nealymouse]

It was a very sad show. My dd(6) came in from outside when they were showing the burned children. Normally I would have made her leave the room but we have always had a really hard time describing the hurt of burns so I let her watch it. She never has tried to play with matches or anything but I know she will remember this and will not ever play with fire. She saw first hand what it can do. She even got tears in her eyes when she saw the baby.
