Last night,in a park in rural Montgomery County,MD,police found 5 family members dead.A mother and her three children were found near the entrance and a subsequent search of the park turned up the body of a man who apparently died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.While no victims identities have been made public,people in the small town of Unity are saying it was a family of five.This tragedy is the THIRD such incident in Maryland this year involving children murdered in a domestic dispute,not to mention the well-publicized Chris Benoit murder-suicide some months back,and all I think is WHY?
People get depressed,and sometimes they see no other way out other than the selfish act of suicide and thats unfortaunte,but why did he have to deprive his family of the rest of their lives? There is NOTHING in this world that could convince me to hurt my child,and it is disturbing that there are people capable of such brutality.What were those poor kids and their mother thinking during their last moments,I can only imagine and I do not want to go there.Parents are supposed to protect and cherish their children and shield them from all the boogeymen.They dont expect that the very person(s) they go to for comfort will BE the boogeyman.
All marriages/relationships have struggles,and when you add children to the equation it gets tougher.My husband and I have had our share of difficulties but even if we lost everything we owned,we would still have US.Our daughter,him and I.What makes people lose sight of the most valuable thing we have-our families?
