God bless this family . He sure was a good looking little boy. God will take care of him.

[God bless]

I can't imagine what his family is going through, but I can imagine how Jesus is holding this sweet boy in his arms at this very moment; no more pain just little laughters and giggles and smiles!

This has to be a rough time.

Thoughts are with the family. Wish I could make things easier.

For once you guys should CALM DOWN and not start crap. This is very meaningful post and not meant for what you already seem to be turning it into.

There are so many other post that you can rant on. Please, go to them.

I heard about this horrible tragedy this morning.
I will mention this family when i speak to the man upstairs,i hope others keep them in there prayers as well.

I really hate to hear things happening to our children, I'm pretty tough but when it comes to children I'm soft, children never deserve to die.

I can't imagine what the mother is going through, no matter what happens and how bad someone thinks they have it, they need to think of the mother and the family of this child.*a grown man is crying right now*

I read it was a manual transmission and the car was going to get checked out to see what may have happened.

They know it was NOT neglegence on the mothers part it was just a freak occurrence that i wish never happened.

I wish only the best for the mother and family..

It was a freak accident.

Something similar happened in another state years ago where a car was started while in 1st gear without pressing in the clutch (which should have never happened) it hit a pregnant lady and caused a mis carriage.

They lifted prints off the neutral saftey switch and it led them to a unqualified automotive mechanic ,a paper trail confirmed that a short cut to hot wire the clutch switch instead of buying a new one to replace it with was done by a repair shop for a used car dealer. Stuff like that is the last thing a grieving family would think about because nothing could help out in a circumstance like that to bring a lost life back but someone should be held accountable if this is the case..

My thoughts and prayers are with this family! What a horrible tragedy! Just a freak accident! I am so saddened by this! He was such a cute little boy.

Prayers going up to the Big Guy for the little guy and his momma.

Sorry for your loss, when I heard this on the news It broke my heart. Words can't express

I mentioned we should be more safe. As in the people who live at my building. Im not letting my little one play in the parking lot anymore. People hall as coming of the road. I think they are afraid of get rear ended.

You guys is a bunch of haters. Y'all can't even know how awesome this is. I hear for no attention. If gotta say sumthing get I'm my face trick!

No Laura, there aren't a bunch of haters on this thread. This is about a little boy that lost his life and nobody would know the devastation of how that feels unless they have lost a child. Most people feel this Mother has suffered the greatest loss anyone could ever suffer and that any condemnation would be cruel to place upon her, so when you made the statement that said "she needed to be more safe" of course people felt that was cruel of you. Anytime there is an accident of this nature I am sure the person involved plays it and replays it in their mind how things could have been different. But the could haves and should haves are mute points once something this tragic has occurred so it is better to try to help ease the pain rather than to pass judgement's that could cause more. I see you reworded your thoughts in your next post using the word we instead of she "I mentioned we should be more safe." And yes I agree on your next point. Everyone there can learn a valuable lesson at how dangerous things truly can be for the children in the parking lot there and should do whatever possible with that wisdom so another Mother won't be living through the nightmare that I am sure this one is. And now I will say what I came on this thread to say in the first place. My prayers continue to be with this beautiful little boys family and I am so sorry for your loss.

[Yep]

I agree with "poppy".... didn't sound very meaningful.....sounded to me like "auntie" was TRYING to start trouble. Who the heck gets on Topix to give their family condolences anyways?

I am sorry for the family and their loss though. Prayers are with them.
