What is this world coming to?

Yesterday was just a day of tragic news… where do I begin?

With the woman whose two children were stabbed and killed by their nanny?

Or the 14-year-old girl who jumped in front of a subway because she was bullied?

Or the NY cop who plotted to kidnap 100 women and cook them?

I don’t know which story disturbs me more. Why do these tragic events have to happen?

After picking up her 3-year-old daughter, Nessie, Marina Krim came home to disover her two other children, Lulul, 6, and Leo, 2,laying in a bathtub. They were fatally stabbed by their 50-year-old nanny who stabbed herself in the throat.  The mother had just posted photos of her kids on her blog.

Felicia Garcia, 15, jumped in front of a subway just moments after a group of classmates, described by witnesses as members of the football team, were bullying her. Why did the Staten Island girl have to end her own life?

NYPD officer Gilberto Valle III plotted to kidnap and cook as many as 100 women, including his girlfriend. Yes – cook. What’s more disturbing is that he and his estranged wife just ha d a baby last year. Thank God the FBI was onto him and arrested him before anything tragic could actually happen.

I don’t want my children to live in this kind of world.

I want to protect them from people who can hurt them.

I want to take them to a remote place and live our lives blissfully in ignorance.
