ot Conn. School Shooting

Lets all take a moment and say a prayer for the diaster that happened in Conn. and let them please R.I.P. this is so so sad so close to Christmas. thank you

What a sad tragedy, I join you in praying for the families and loved ones of all those that are affected.  May the dear souls of those that died rest in eternal peace! May the surviving teachers and children recover from this horror!

  my heart breaks for these children and their families.

Yes, do keep this community, it's children and the families that have lost loved ones, so small and precious in your hearts and prayers.

My heart goes out to all of those who suffered losses today in Newtown, Connecticut. As a parent, I can't imagine that kind of ultimate pain of losing a child. God, please be with all of them- wrap them in Your loving arms as they grieve, let them feel Your comforting presence, love, and strength. I don't even know what to pray for God, but You know all of the victims and their needs and I know You are with them now.

I wish I wouldn't have just eaten lunch because I literally feel sick to my stomach after reading about this story online.  I want to cry (too late).  I cannot imagine losing your child.  That has got to be the single most painful thing anyone can go thru.  My heart goes out to everyone affected, especially those children & parents.  I will pray for them all.  

So, So, SAD!  I hope God will give those families the strength to carry on and heal.

I know, I'm so sorry for those families, makes it that much sadder this close to Christmas.  Sending my prayers, and hug your family members, you never know when they might be taken from you:(

The world is full of too much pain.   No one should ever have to lose a child.  This is heart breaking...I'm sure it will come out that the shooter was mentally ill.  I really think the mental health system is failing.  I wish there was some way to identify these things before they happen.  The pain they feel is so enormous and I pray that god will give them strength.  The loss of a child never stops hurting.

As a Connecticut elementary school teacher, I am devastated that this horrible tragedy happened in a school, a place where kids should always feel they are safe, loved, and protected.  It brought back the memory of September 11th, where we had this horrible news but we had to act as if nothing was wrong because we didn't want the kids to know.  Inside, however, our hearts are breaking today just like so many years ago.

How someone can take such innocent lives is truly beyond my comprehension.  My thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the victims and survivors.  They will never be the same again, and I'm sure schools across the nation will be looking at policies and procedures to see if anything can be done to avoid a tragedy such as this in the future.  Unfortunately, it seems this was the sick and cowardly act of one individual and we will probably never have all the answers.

Hug your kids a little tighter tonight!
