This girl was a friend of my niece and this horrible tragedy has hit close to home. My niece is devastated and all of our family is grieving with her.
ReplyDeleteWith all the recent crimes against girls in the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island, it is clear to me that we must clamp down on crime in our communities.
And we, as parents, must communicate with our children. There are always warning signs before a crime, as there were with Laura's. Parents urge your children to talk to you if they receive threats or are targeted to be bullied.
That is when we must investigate and stop the perpetrator before they strike. Communication and trust are key.
I pray for Laura's family and her community.
I pray for peace.
