2 yo falls in river

[fourstardan]

This news is eating my insides today, I shouldn't look at news before bed as I read it before going to sleep and really got into me.

I have a three year old and cannot imagine how it would feel today to lose them, certainly in such tragic circumstances.

Accidents do happen, toddlers run a lot quicker than you can imagine, are clumsy and it only takes one slip. Granted they shouldn't had been so close to swollen rivers, but thats another issue in itself, people fall into rivers all the time even when not swollen and lose lives.

I find it rather disappointing this isn't getting as much coverage as the woman (Nicola?) who went missing.

There's no mystery, it was the mystery that let that story run and run, similar to the Honington airman story.
