My little girl saw her first goodbye to her father as he left overseas with 5th sfg. She has a video she watches every night of him but still ask where's daddy?

I'm sorry for you, but was there really any reason to post this video?

My brother is in the army and he was on leave this past Christmas and Im 14 years old and i was crying just as bad as this little girl when he left. Deployment is very hard to get through. :(

ok it's sad the little girl misses her daddy, but I hope you fixed her carseat strapp there is no excuse!!!! bad mommy on your part. My husband left in October , we have 2 kids under the age of 3 and I damn made sure before leaving the airport they were strapped in their carseat properly sorry I love my kids that much not to lose them. They are 3 yrs old and 9 months old.

@davidtennantfangurl4 If a child is strapped in properly no fidgeting with the straps is going to make it loose like that, and it sounds like the car was moving.

Strap that child in properly or you may lose her, can you imagine if you got in a car accident, she would fly through the window. Smarten up woman.

I sure hope you didn't show that to her dad. If you were to get in a car accident, has a very high chance of being seriously injured or killed. The way she is kept in that seat with the straps twisted, loose, and not on her shoulders is almost the same as not having her buckled in anything at all. A quick visit to a car seat check or youtube search can show you how to properly restrain her so she's safe.

agreed about the buckle her up, but i have a 2 year old also and pretty much takes duct tape to keep her strapped in. Anyhow this is no way to talk to a heros wife i mean really people grow up already.........

Crap.... this thing is sad... If the man ever saw this in war, he wouldbe crushed under emmotions.

Little kids fidigit with the strapsnof anything they are buckled into (car seat, high chair). And who are we to judge this mother's parenting style. Maybe she did pull over to comfort her child, or maybe she comforted her when the father left. You don't know, so You cannot judge unless you've been through what they have.

[tigresa198521]

What you should have done is pull over and hold her and make her feel better instead of interrogating her and making her feel worse. It seemed like you were doing it just for the camera. That is horrible. My husband just left on deployment and I also have a 2 year old and I will never do this to her. Please do not show this video to your husband it will destroy him...

Ok I think i don't know what to think about this video, on one side its sad a good share tot hose who don't know what its like, and i know you must have been thinkin how ur husband could die out there, but there are times when one is to young for the harsh reality of life, also did she take off the straps cuz they were bothering her after the car was moving if so i understand the car seat if not please please for the sake of ur daughter read the instructions.
