OH that is so sad a seatbelt is such an easy thing to remember and I hope these kids learn a valuable lesson about drinking and driving.

My prayers are with them all. speedy recovery for the children and I hope their mother makes a full recovery as well.

It is a horrible, horrible thing, drinking and driving. We have a family member whose life will never be the same because of an accident he caused, drinking and driving. Your friend will be in my prayers.

I feel terrible for the little ones, for the adults they belong in jail.
A mother first off letting her children ride in a car with someone who is drunk, then not using a seatbelt deserves some heavy duty jail time and her children belong somewhere else. I know this might seem harsh but she really really put those poor helpless kids in danger. It does not sound as if she is smart enough or mature enough to have kids.

My niece and her husband, newlyweds, were killed by a drunk trucker. They were in a VW, he in his semi. He was so drunk that he didn't even know he had hit them. Several people honked their horns at him until he pulled over. My niece had to have her face scraped off the windshield. My brother-in-law, (my niece's father) was never the same after that. He missed his daughter so much that he visited her grave every day til the day he died. More lives are destroyed than just the ones who die in the drunk driving incident.

S&B - many prayers for all the people involved and affected. I hope this is a real wake up call for the BF and the friend.

Mary - what a horrible thing to have happen...you are right, it affects so many more people that just the ones who are injured or killed.

And it's so preventable...
