This story--and especially the picture of the father--absolutely broke my heart.

I can't give the family anything but heartfelt sympathy. Every parent knows how thin the line is that we walk between life as usual and making a mistake that has consequences you will never recover from.

I hope that their family stays intact after this tragedy, and may God be with them as they mourn their loss.

Edited to add: I cross posted this in [livejournal.com profile] badparents here and it has generated a large amount of comments, if people would like to see what others are saying.

*mourns*

This is why I'd make a terrible mother. I mean, leaving aside all the emotional issues, but it's all I can do to remember to feed myself and my pets, and make sure they have water and clean shelter. Something as fragile and helpless and complex in its needs as a human infant? I couldn't do it, and I greatly admire those who can.

That poor, poor man.
