[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did anyone else feel like Clay's death was kind of glossed over?  [/quote]

Yes. I agree it was well written and conveyed the horror and reality of the flood. I thought it glossed over that with four adult men present it was the lone woman/mom who was left trying to protect BOTH kids and to keep all three of them alive. I thought it glossed over that while it was beginning she was trying to keep the kids on the counter, the dad/husband was holding the sliding door, and the author and his husband were doing what? Why didn’t one of them help protect the kids? [/quote]

[b]The men were trying to formulate a plan. Nobody knew that the house was going to disintegrate[/b]. You should be ashamed of yourself for writing such ignorant and bigoted words. [/quote]

Remember that everything happened so quickly. I would think that the men's first instincts would be to try to prevent the water from crashing into the house so holding up the glass door does make sense ... until it didn't and by then it all devolved in mere seconds.
