Why do people do this. I would really hope that people did not take their own life, but if you are going to take your own life, why take other people's lives with yours? Why would you kill your own children, I do not know what kind of pain this man was going through, but I do not believe he should have taken that pain out on his children. I wonder how we can prevent this from happening. Are there early warning signs that we can spot? Did he ask for help in his life? I just really feel sorry for the children, they never got to live nowhere near a full life.
