If you remember the case of Susan Smith drowning her own children in a car in the lake. That is what inspired this song shortly after that. (p.s. I was very angry at the time). sorry Who's assigned to them to make sure they make it home right up to the gate so they aren't left alone who's responsible tell me who they are I'd like to speak to them tell me who's in charge (chorus) Who watches over angels when they can't find their way through their darkest hours and throught their darkest days maybe there's just not enough of them to go around cause I see fallen angels on the ground and noone's watching now Who will answer for the things that we have done to all the little angels the daughters and the sons All they ever ask for is someone to believe it doesn't seem like much to ask to me chorus Who will answer for the things we didn't do all the times we told ourselves there's nothing we can do We don't want to remember we don't want to forget there's never enough angels but plenty of regrets So who's assigned to them? to make sure they make it home...... ....... ------------------ Kay-lynn **A dream is a wish your heart makes :) |

Words from broken hearts! I'm a "die hard" for the children person! They're so innocent, so trusting, and sometimes they're so abused and unloved...they hardly ever complain about it because they know no other way of being treated. *tears streaming down my cheeks* Those were very caring, beautiful, and truthful words. Thank you. I just posted a poem NO One Cared...and we must be on the same wavelength tonight..... |

That is so sad.But we can take comfort in knowing they are up in heaven.Even though you question that.All children go to heaven. |

Dear Delores: I don't question that all children go to heaven.. I just wonder , sometimes.. where was their guardian angel when they needed one. (see?) We all think or believe we have one don't we? So my thought was.. where was theirs? On vacation?? I have a childlike thought that we are all "assigned" a guardian angel. So my point was.. "someone fell down on the job" That's all, simple, plain, direct. i don't understand.. I know God didn't make those children die, she did. But I just want to make sure. they have someone to guide their way and they aren't lost. ( just a hope and child's wish) I hope you understand. All children go to heaven, so do all dogs, and kittens and everything that is loved, goes to heaven. I believe that's how you get in. I've said it before. We're not judged by how much "we" love. but by how much "we" are loved by "others" (quote: wizard of oz) Not a wiser thing has ever been said.

I do remember this. I remember being angry too, I cannot understand people like this. She was one sick individual!!! Yes, I agree we all have an angel watching over us. But they don't necessarily intervene. She will answer for what she has done, and she has to live with it until the day she meets her maker! And I hope she suffers in her thoughts of what she did until that day!!! |

I'm glad "someone" remembers. Cause I'll never forget it! Thanks for your comment  |
