The knowledge that Meryl Streep is not actually named Meryl Streep has broken me in a deep way

Also, just to note, the Krims have been amazing since this happened, working through their horrifying grief (that I am sure still exists on a daily basis) to start up that arts foundation and rebuild their family as best as they can instead of crawling into a hole and dying themselves. People sometimes forget they had…

Exactly. As I noted before, I think the bulk of these reactions are motivated by fear. NOT MY CHILD! NOT ME! JUST THEM! ONLY THEM!

Holy shit! That’s moved well past sanctimony and on to contempt. That is some Olympic-level heartlessness.

That’s awful.

It horrifies me to think that these people are molding little minds.

Couples who get through things like are something special. My grandparents lost all three of their biological children. All the kids died before age six. I can’t even imagine. They adopted my dad and his brother before their last child died. Inconceivable grief.

I was a juror on a homicide trial in which the defendent allegedly murdered multiple people, among other awful things. I have to say, every one of us jurors were able to separate our emotions and follow the legal instructions according to the law, not according to how we felt. During deliberations, which lasted…

People are so weird about sex, too. Don’t they realize that it can sometimes be used to for comfort? It’s not all just raunchy fun for a married couple (or anyone else, for Christ’s sake). Sometimes it springs from a state of pure devastation.

Yup. And they’re still doing it today on word of this development. It’s beyond shameful.

After a stillbirth, and my older sister dying as an infant, my parents had 4 more bio children and took in 3 foster children. Thirty eight years together last month.

I did some work with Kevin Krim through a partnership our two media companies had. We had a group dinner one night not long before this horrific event, and he was sitting across from me talking proudly about his three kids and how crazy/fun it was to raise them in NYC.

...she killed the children because of her financial issues, and because she “had to do everything and take care of the kids ... I worked as a babysitter and [Marina Krim] wanted me to do everything.”

God, right?! My sister and I were talking the other day - we each have a young child - and we sort of casually mentioned that of course the ever-present fear was that the kid dies. I said something like “I feel really solid in my marriage, but honestly, I don’t think we could survive the death of a child.” And her…

Congrats to them. I cannot imagine having to deal with that nightmare. I remember how awful some people were towards these parents following the murder. They were particularly cruel towards the mother.

Cosigned. These people have way more strength than I think I ever would if something like this happened to my kid.

Horrible. I know my mother was able to move on from her first infants death because she got pregnant with my brother. People really have no business judging a thing.

I can’t even comprehend how much of a piece of shit you have to be to crap on these parents for having more children. I’m going to have a rage stroke thinking about it.

It gives me a lot of happiness that these two are still together and seem to be loving and close to their living children. So often stories that start out this horrific only lead to divorce and fucked up survivors.

How do you find an unbiased jury for a case like this? You’d almost have to rule out all parents, wouldn’t you? Because just the thought of someone doing this to my kid sends me into a terrified rage.
