The driver of the car that hit the kids is likely traumatized

Oh my God now the people who hit these children have to live with that for the rest of their life.

So many parents have no sense these days. Stuff can be replaced, your children can’t.

Having terrible parents is a rogh break. Loving parents are the greatest privilege you can have. Appreciate your parents if they take care of you.

This is heart breaking. RIP to the innocent children.

They didn't do it on their own, the mother sent them out there. This wasn't an "accident" it was pure laziness and disregard.

The person who hit the 10 year old and 16 year old looked more distraught then she did. I would not be able to stand if my child had died.

Children lost their lives and the drivers are traumatized for the rest of theirs..she’s a disgrace.

[tamarasimmons]

Yes ma’am she definitely needs to be in prison. Too many people have children & don’t value them these days.

[catmom]

The people who witnessed that. Oh my goodness. Prayers for them.

The mother probably made the children get out and retrieve the luggage.

The mother didn’t seem to care about her children… I am without words omg

M’y god…I witnessed a child get hit by two cars, he didn’t make it …his name was David he was 10 that was 45 years ago I will never ever forget him and that night…I can’t imagine the people who hit David or these people that hit these two children will ever forget or or recover from such a tradgedy….rest in peace little ones and blessing to all who were unfortunate enough to see this may you someday heal ❤😢

I cannot even imagine drinking and then driving my kids around.

Mother looks so annoyed to be inconvenienced. Unbelievable that she sent her kids to their death like that for a stupid suitcase. My next-door neighbor's twins were both hit on a busy street when their nanny decided not to wait in line to let them off at school, but pulled over in a busy intersection when her light was not red. Kids jumped out & ran across the crosswalk, thinking they had the light. Both survived, one with major brain trauma, but both eventually fully recovered. As a teacher, I was always keenly aware that parents had entrusted the most precious thing in their lives to me, & my obligationwas to act as a parent in protecting those kids. This woman did not deserve to be called a mom.

Prayers to the drivers!! And to the children, I'm so sorry you'll were failed by your mother!

[AliciaMendez-swzs]

Shes not even crying and screaming. I would have ran out in traffic myself

[Forestventures]

Wow how disgusting the mother shows zero emotions knowing her children got killed because of her, she should have gone to get the luggage. Truly sad

[JustAnotherMatt]

Ppl like her should NEVER have had children. She’s deserves 4 life sentences. 2 for her kids and 2 for putting the other drivers into that situation.

[kathysingh]

Shame on that mother. Sending your 2 children into traffic. GOD rest both of their souls.

Imagine being the person that hit them. There isn't enough therapy in the world to help with that guilt.
