Oh man… This is so sad.. Not to be harsh or ask the obvious.. But where were the parents?? This is so upsetting
Rest in peace baby boy! I’m so sorry you’re life ended so tragically :'(
Rest in peace baby boy! I’m so sorry your life ended so tragically :'(
So sad
My heart goes out to them. I have a friend whose little guy would escape. It took a while to block all escape routes because he was so clever he’d find a new one. Please don’t blame. It’s so sad.
So sad. Becky Gibson now I know why you keep bubba so close. Read all
That is exactly why Kristen Stringfellow :)Children with Autism are known to wonder and they are attracted to water. My heart breaks for his family. Prayers for them.
Prayers for the family and Travis
This is such a sad story. My prayers to the family. God rest his soul.
Sorry for this little guy. Story affected me deeply. Please don’t hurt these parents anymore than they already are. You can’t judge what you don’t know.
This is SOOO heartbreaking!
so sadly tragic!
Robyn Lee: Unbelievable. Blaming the grieving parents who don’t get the chance to put their baby to sleep tonight. We don’t know what happened. Let’s circle around this family, provide meals, prayers and comfort…. leave your “obvious” conclusions at the door.
Very Well said Brendie, from someone that knows this family….
How truly sad.
Thanks Brendie, how right you are. I do know this family. The grandparents have custody of the 2 autistic boys 3 & 4. The grandparents are amazing, the kids have been a handful. They have done everything to make this place safe. 10 foot fences in the back yard, locks on all doors and all cupboards. Grandparents that have worked hard with the schools the boys attend! This is truly a tragedy but more a same that the media and individuals jump to conclusions when a child is involved. That is why it is called an accident. A meal chap will be start and the community that knows this family will surround them with help and support <3
Whoops…. shame that the media….and…. meal chain
Very sad! I’m saying prayers for the family !
May his family find peace and I wish Travis RIP.
Horrible tragedy.
Is there not a law requiring fences and locked gates around swimming pools to avert just such a disaster?
There was a gate. Deputies had to tear it down to get to the boy.
How did the boy get in??
He climbed…. The home Travis lived in has 10′ wrought iron fence to avoid the two children from leaving the yard but he climbed that. Then he climbed the fence of the house where hs was found.
How do we know he climbed two fences if there were no eyewitnesses?
Wonderful Military Family. God Bless the the little boy and the Stratton Family.
I agree with Robyn…. How the hell did that happen? 100% the parents fault Brendie. Nobody else’s.
Really Camyrn, you are with your children 100% of the time? The parents are gone the grandparents have the children and they have done everything they can to keep the kids safe. 10′ gates and locks on all the doors and cupboards in the hose. I remember when my kids were that old I didn’t sit by them when they slept, and I did go to the bathroom without them, and sometimes let them play in the yard without sitting out there. No fault, it was an accident…
Poor baby
Or whoever was supposed to be watching the little guy
