In Response to is it a coincidence?: that some kind of related exercises were scheduled for the day of 9/11 or Sandy Hook?Watch it to know--that's why I'm posting it.I do not have any opinion on this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGmzNWkhS8M Posted by Astra2012 I have watched a lot of the conspiracy theory videos on 9/11 and I do think the government is lying. There is enough expert testimony and evidence to warrant an independent investigation. Especially since about 5 of the hijackers named in the governments 911 investigation, are alive and well and have no idea as to why they were ever named in the plot. I've watched the Sandy Hook video, and the main thing that doesn't sit well with me is how the parents are making facebook pages, laughing and smiling within days of the incident. If something like this had happened to my child, I don't think I'd smile...... ever, much less be laughing. But tragedy affects people in different ways. It still doesn't "feel" right. |

Posted by wisemagic After such a loss, parents are numb for a long time which is a way of helping them to cope with their grief without going crazy. They have other parents to share their grief with which allows them to openly grieve rather than to suffer in silence. At this time, they need others to really understand how they feel which is a healthy way to adapt. The death of a child is a tremendous loss, something that doesn't affect everyone such as the death of a parent, sibling or friend. Rather than trying to hide their losses, these parents are bringing their children into the light which makes them feel less alone. |
