Personally, I was happy that they sent them home. Maybe it is panic..maybe some think it was unwarranted..but, for me, a parent of 5 in that school and a television going all while I worked this morning..watching horror and not knowing what was going to happen next...

I personally was very thankful for the town of Dracut to let me hug my kids, and to explain, in my own terms and with Motherly love, what had happened.

I also work in grief support, so I was thankful that they didn't scare the kids by telling them what happened BEFORE they came home, giving them ideas that young children can not comprehend and would cause more terror than just sending them home to their parents.

I, personally am grateful. And, I got called right away..plus, they called me to make sure my 3 on the bus got home safely!
