I was in 4th grade at the time. All the kids at my school were leaving early, and none of us understood why. Finally my teacher said some building was bombed, but was very vague about the rest. Finally when we found out from other kids, I was terrified because my both of my parents worked in Manhattan. Fortunately, my dad picked me up early and then my mom was able to make it back home. That day was seriously the worst feeling in the world.

@Reba: God Bless America!!!!So proud of our President and our military!

But I just cant at her fans talking about bush and bashing her on twitter for praising obama

[LightandDarkness]

My teacher was so ignorant.... She was scaring us, by saying some really stupid stuff, like "He could be hiding in our school as we speak"


STUPID BROAD!

You reported me ? How lovely.

We didn't have early dismissal (probably because we live down South). My 6th period English teacher was from New York and she was worried about her friends being there. I believe they worked in the center or used to visit it often during breaks. I believe they were alright.

9/11 for me:

I remember early in the mornings parents kept coming to pick their children up. I thought it was so freaking weird. Then recess was cancelled, and I remember we just started wondering what was going on. None of the teachers could tell us. Then my mom came to pick me up and explained everything. Then she informed me that my grandfather worked at the Pentagon, which she told me had been attacked. My grandmother had called my mom earlier in tears because she couldn't get a hold of him. It tooks us hours to get ahold of him, and I cried all the way until. Fortunately he had not been on that side where the plane crashed because he had a meeting that called him to be on the opposite side. I'm thankful I didn't lose anyone!

I truely feel like the schools probably should have tried to keep this situation away from the kids because they had nothing to do with the dumb decisions of the adults. The videos I seen as a kid traumatized me & I remember not being able to go to sleep w/ the images on people jumping out of buildings & everything blowing up. I was always scared that my house would be next or something

Okay? EVERY FREAKING cable station were covering it and watching people fall to their death was traumatic for everyone, no matter if they were a grown adult or a small child.

I can only remember my mom picking me up from school and EXTRA editions of our national newspaper being sold on the street. We still got that copy, it has so many typos.

One thing I hated about the media's interpretation of 9/11 is the whole suicide jumping. They made it seem as though those people were jumping off those buildings in an act of suicide.

It's honestly one of the worst things to think about. To know that there is no way to escape death, and decide whether you want to burn to death, or jump out of a window of one of the tallest buildings in the world.

The only thing I want from this news is closure for the people who lost loved ones. For the husbands, wives, sisters, brothers, nephews, aunts, uncles, grandparents, friends, etc.. who lost someone in those tragic attacks to just get some closure.

That's what it's all about. While terrorism obviously won't end with the same abruptness, there's a sense that the 911 era is somehow "finished". I would imagine anybody with vivid memories of the event feels the same way.

I had the same feeling. I think some of those people knew they were going to die and the only way to get out and not be burned was to jump out. Some of them were probably already dead or in shock. Just sad.

Yea but an adult could understand such a situation better than a child could.

Sorry if i touched any nerves on the subject. It wasn't my intention to hurt anyone's feelings. I swear.
I think everything turned out wrong and things went a little bit out of control.

Yes the discussion was going alright and they were talking some sense into Sahn so that was uncalled for.
