SADDEST SONG I've ever heard! 😭 #protectourkids

I left my husband, and raised my kids ALONE, the best job I ever had! This hurts to see and hear. To all the women out there you can do this without a man. I did, and never looked back. My sons respect women, they know to never abuse women, it's their job to walk away from a fight! God bless the children.

My father beat my mother and us kids. It was raised in the 1960’s….no one stepped forward to help us. My mother hid it; she was ashamed. The oldest of my younger brothers threw my dad across the room when he was big enough to fight back. He told him, “you are not going to hit me or my sisters and brothers again.” My dad got scared and never did hit us again. My mom divorced him shortly after that. I guess my brother fighting back gave her the courage to finally leave him. As bad as my father was, believe it or not, I knew men who did worse. Times change, I hope for the better, as least on this issue. Now, people are more aware and more willing to intervene. It is indeed a sad song. But, if it raises awareness even a little, the artist did his job.

Ok, so, I am not a religious man, but wow. What a song. I agree with you Dirty. I'm in my sixties, but any child around me is safe from anyone who would do them harm, and I will protect them AT ALL COSTS, up to and including my life. Children are precious and have to be protected.

Somehow Ive never heard this song. But I'm responding on Easter Sunday. Yes baby, that place called heaven is real. This song just WRECKED me. I'm 50 yrs old and my heart hurts with the angst of this world ..please Lord Jesus, protect all of your little and big children from angry hands and words....

Anyone who abuses a child is just a monster. Not even human anymore.

I’ve already protected people with my life. I’m a man and that’s my JOB. Always was my job and always will be. My life is forfeit for ANY child.

As a former Marine I served because I had a wonderful childhood. I love kids. They're so precious, especially my own and would gladly die for anyone of them

I hear this song & I am 58 yrs young I cry every time I hear this. Our children these days are getting abused constantly killed by their own parents. Look these babes didn't ask to be here. If you didn't truly want this child keep your legs closed or at least have him wear a rain jacket (rubber). Help these babies by not hurting them in any way. Ppl that can't have babies are waiting in a long line. A loving person,a loving home with loving siblings. STOP HURTING THE CHILD THAT DIDN'T ASK TO BE HERE.

I’m one of those in that stat . I spent my whole childhood in foster care and group homes, under the states custody til 21 ,all because of my parents not being ready to be parents yet . When the parents are unstable u become unstable. All u have to do is stand up and use ur voice and chose to be different then them . We have to remember they learned what they kn from their parents . It a cycle that only I had to learn to survive. I asked god many times if there was room for me now . Just so it would end . I tried many times and many ways to get to god sooner , but look I’m still here . I realized he will sit me beside him again when he decides it is my time . Blessed Be And to all those babies who had to endure the wrath of man , I know ur pain . Now throw ur hands up to god and let him take bk the control . Our destination in life is in gods hand not man’s .

Wow I definitely prayed to go to heaven as a child too. But God left me here. Today I am 61 and have gone through so much. I am happily married now and life is good. It was extremely tough the first half of my life. I know heaven is waiting for me. And I know God is good.

Oh wow. I just lost my best friend yesterday. But I know his story after many years of pain living with memories of abuse he's now in that place. Tears are dripping on my phone typing this. Thank you for showing up on here today. ❤

How very appropriate for you to speak on this today-- memorial day...our servicemen were all about protecting? Thank you. I adopted two special needs boys from foster care and raised them alone. I devoted my life to them. And then I devoted my life to a serviceman who is no longer with us. You touched me , today, of all days, and I respect and appreciate you. Keep singing...I loved it...

Protect the innocence of our children, please Lord. 🙏👑🙏

My biological dad only got a year in jail for what he did to me . But I would go to church I forgave my dad because my belief is not holding that pain to let it go and I did I forgave him. But I still remember. And yes it still hurts but I have been keeping my faith.

Jesse is my absolute favorite musician. Your commentary was amazing. Children are the most precious gift from God. Protect them, love them and help keep their innocence.

Oh my goodness. This popped up on my recommended. The words “the saddest song I’ve ever heard” made me click on it. Any the age of 62, I am a daughter, sister, wife, mother and grandmother. This made me ugly cry, so so very sad and so very very mad. This should get anyone who has feelings and a heart in their feels. Thank you for this.

Tears flowing. Thank you for playing that song for us that has never heard it😥💔

it happens all the time. if you know of a situation like this you need to make sure those kids are taken from the mama that allows that to happen. take the kid to the police and let him tell them what is going on and let them go to a foster home where they'll get the love and care they deserve. if you have the means to care for a foster child then let me tell you , the reward is worth the time and effort. I'm from the south too and I'm 64, my dad was old school WWII vet. And we had a neighbor one time who had a lot of kids and the "husband" was a drunk who would show up at the first of the month and take her check money from her. she and mom would talk and dad found out and one day we were sitting on the front porch drinking coffee and he pulled up across the street and dad knew what was about to happen, we heard them get loud, yelling and fussing and he sat his coffee down and said "that'll be enough of this shit" and went across the street and commenced to whipping his ass and sent him running to the car and he never came back.

As a survivor of childhood abuse (physical and sexual) people like you give me hope. You help me to remember that not all men are out to hurt me. Thank you for existing 🖤🖤🖤

I'm 55 and I'm BAWLING NO CHILD SHOULD HAVE TO GO THRU THIS....STEP UP PEOPLE, DO BETTER
