I wonder, if the tables were turned, if the other side would have had to post suicide prevention hotline numbers.

I wonder if they would have had to reserve times at school the next day, as our school did, to console crying, scared children and help them go about their day. I wonder if some of their schools would have had to assure the parents that their kids’ needs were being met on such a difficult day.

I wonder how many people would have had to take mental health days from work because they were so terrified and upset.

I wonder if they would have watched strangers – adults – cry on the street. Or at work. 

I wonder.
