When he thought of the teacher to describe her, he genuinely smiled. This really touched my heart. Teachers are angels in this world ❤ may she rest in peace and may her family, friends and students find strength to overcome this tragic loss.
I cried. She sounds amazing. A lot of teachers will shame you for not getting the class or the assignment. But she didn’t. She sounds like such a good teacher.
That’s what I was thinking! Notice he mentions her urging him to get to class on time and that when he asked questions she wouldn’t make him feel dumb! She sounds like a wonderful teacher!! This is a terrible thing that happened.
@@dimplessamuels960How can you process something that just happened to you?? Omg these journalists are insane. Makes me so mad, interview the adults if needed but leave these children alone.
Idk ..maybe talking about it is better than sitting alone depressed and devastated. But he will experience ptsd, this will shape his future and it’s terribly sad.😢
@@johnbeebe4036 This is great advice! Tetris and anything involving sorting. If you give someone a task immediately post trauma vs. forcing them to sit and wait, it'll help remove them from that helpless mindset that can trigger PTSD. The task can be something as simple as sorting cups for young children
How about let's start with where are the parents? Please stop with blaming everyone but the PARENTS. Parents are responsible for raising kids and teaching them right from wrong.
@@vedder10There will always be an occasional homeless kid or mentally ill kid with schizophrenia who thinks they see/hear "demons". We have to have solutions for those kids too.
@@vedder10 You really can't blame EVERYTHING a child does on a parent. Sure, we can not have guns in the house in kids and parents can do their best to steer their kids in the right direction but at the end of the day, kids grow up to be their own persons making their own choices/decisions. Trying to shield your child from the world/dangers can also have devastating consequences.
At the school. Y'all love to argue for TH-cam likes. Y'all really act like they wouldn't have counselors headed there the same day and act like y'all didn't see all of those parents getting and standing with their children. We have to get the story from the actual witnesses who were and while it's fresh in their minds. Y'all should go read a PHUCKING book.
Miss Irimie will never ever be forgotten------this young man made me cry as he was sharing about his beloved math teacher-------her special way of teaching was a success in this high schoolers eyes. Well done Christina Irimie🫡 ( former teacher)
All they do is ask if any kids want to talk about what happened and their parents have to consent. It's important for people to know what happened at the ground level from the people that were there so we don't feel disconnected from it as "just another shooting." Can't believe that's a phrase I have to type out tbh
The anchor didn’t even sound concerned. She was reading the questions, even the condolences didn’t sound sincere. You could see the kid at the end start to get that.
Man these poor kids! I survived the las vegas shooting as an adult and it still haunts me, 7 years later..i cannot imagine going though that as a teenager...i hope these kids all get some help to work though their grief

Folks please don't take the focus off of the parents. After the kid was visited by the FBI a year ago the guns should have locked up and the parenting emphasized. Teachers are not responsible for raising our kids. They are overworked, outnumbered(overcrowded classrooms, underpaid, and not supported by the administration.

It should be illegal/ a crime for ANY PERSON COUNSELORS, LAW-ENFORCEMENT AND/OR MEDIA TO SPEAK TO ANY CHILD/MINOR WITHOUT EXPRESS PERMISSION AND A PARENT ACCOMPANYING THEM. ANOTHER FORM OF TRAUMA & ABUSE.
I don’t think it’s right to ask this young man questions after having gone through this, what for a story? Are you freaking kidding me? Woman how fking dare you, now you gonna act like a hero for getting him to speak on her. She has no common sense.
Tho I understand your sentiment if he didn’t want to explain what happened he doesn’t have to he’s still old enough to make the decision to not discuss it if he doesn’t want to he doesn’t have a gun pointed to his head she asked questions and he wanted to talk about his teacher probably to talk and show the world the type of person she was it’s not always one sided as many people make it
how about the fact that I didn’t even know it happened and maybe this creates an attachment to the situation as a viewer to speak up and finally make change. What exactly are we getting put of complaining about a reporter giving awareness’s to this whole situation? AGAIN, the kid is never going to think of this interview again in the ways he will be thinking of his teacher who got shot and classmates who died and hearing those shots ring off. When is change going to happen you want to silence the world from seeing how this affects our children? Then change will never be made. Your all too sensitive and too stupid. Worried about all the wrong things acting like this kids not going to be able to sleep at night from a few questions. HES NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO SLEEP AT NIGHT BECAUSE PEOPLE GOT KILLED IN A SITUATION THAT HE COULD HAVE GOTTEN KILLED TOO..
This is not responsible journalism... this isn't ok. Nobody needs to hear this young man recount this... we want him to be with his family and to get into counseling asap. He does not need to be on the news
Why do people think this kid didn’t voluntarily chose to be interviewed? This kid is genuine and his voice lets us understand the value of that teachers worth and those that passed away. But no everyone is too busy looking for a reason to complain about something smh
No child after going through something like this is going around telling people they want to be interviewed. That’s literally the last thing anyone would want to do.
@@friday4557 No one said they are being forced. That doesn’t change the fact that it is inappropriate to interview a child, because that is what he is a child, after they went through a tragedy like this. You can still see he is shaken up. The fact that you’re defending this is ridiculous.
@@friday4557 I didn’t say they were forced. But I guarantee a reporter went up to him and asked him for an interview. And you remember what it’s like being a kid. How many times did an adult ask you to do something, and you just said yes because they were an adult, not because you actually wanted to.
This interviewer was completely out of line saying “once again, yet again” to this child. Talk about his tragic circumstances, not what’s going on elsewhere. Disgusting.
IZIC DONT LET THIS GET YOU DOWN MAN you had a teacher who caired about you you have to stand tal remember how this person cared about you .. the feelings you are feeling are real connect with your self be some one she would be proud of god bless all of you
They should interview these children!! To show the effects it has on them. They are never heard. Show America that values its guns over children. I started crying hearing him speak. this will forever change these children lives. Speak Children SPEAK!!!!!!!!!!!
Look dont take away gun from people who have them legally, NOT everyone would even dream of doing these things who owns a gun we have them to protect our home and to go hunting with, NOT to go on a darn killing rampage with them, there are way to make it safer to own a gun, if you have kids get a gun safe to keep them in and lock it and put the key away in a safe place where the kids can not find it, I also dont agree with assault tyep guns like they said this was, those are not hunting guns to me. But dont take the guns away from people who would never dream of doing these things
Yeah, let the kids SPEAK. Let the kids tell WHAT DRIVES THEM TO DO SUCH THINGS. Stop blaming inanimate objects. But we know if they do tell why it happens and it doesn't jive with the leftwing narrative, it'll be ignored and a misplaced blame will be hatched. You neo marxist have confused kids as to what gender they are, blaming them for some societal grievance, destroyed their family units. Then to top it off you turn around and medicate the hell out of them. Social media and bureaucracy have become the parents of these lost children. So yeah, let them speak, make sure you listen.
How do our children get through something like this, it's so difficult for us adults. You can't go to the park, the mall, a party, school nowhere seems safe anymore. So many broken and scarred, innocence snatched away. When will the madness end?
Parents the media doesn't care about your kids so please stop letting them interview your kids after a tragedy. They have been through enough. You are the adult and should act like you know what's best for them. If they want their 15 minutes of fame then tell them to go on the Price is Right.
It was so brave of him to be able to speak about Ms.Irimie and how she helped him understand Algebra better in only a few short weeks school has been back in session. I hope there are plenty of counselors on hand to help everyone. Once the initial shock wears off, there will be so many feelings and emotions to deal with.
I hate how this has become normalized in America. NO kids should have to deal with this. These kids are going to be traumatized for life and that’s NOT acceptable.
As an educator it is touching to hear this young man describe how his teacher encouraged him. May all of them rest in peace. May God comfort their families and loved ones. 🕊️
He immediately smiled when he said her name. ❤ For a teenager to show that emotion, she must be a lovely soul. RIP to Ms Irmie and the other lost lives and strength to the survivors.
Everyone can come at Gail but the real problem is not interviews -- the problem is that school shootings and mass shootings are a fact of life in our country. In the 30 years since Columbine we have not done enough as a nation to stop mass shootings and the proliferation of weapons of war. Bless this young man and the tribute he gave to his teacher.
I understand the criticism toward interviewing these kids on one hand. On the other hand, I feel like it's important to hear what they have to say. It's important that their love be conveyed and to see that real people are being deeply affected by this and to be able to feel their grief and mourn with them. Such a good kid, and I'm so sorry for what he went through. It's not always easy to find a teacher so patient and caring.
@@Lezone oh ok my bad bro this just felt forced from the reporter’s end and the constant head shaking threw me off but now that im genuinely thinking about it condolences 2 you for speaking out on someone you knew that unfortunately lost their life definitely not easy and definitely a scary situation to be apart of
So true ❤️🤍💙 Gun related violence is less than 1/4 as likely as knife related violence, a weapon even Europe won’t ban. Tell me now, would you prefer 20-40 puncture wounds over 1-2?
I live in South Carolina and recently the area I live in had been putting metal detectors in the schools to prevent stuff like this happening Im a senior in hs and its aggrevating yea but its doing its job and providing safety so cant get upset at it
Yesssss why do yall not care about these kids mental at all! The system is showing us this. They have to go on with life grieving this situation until they heal and when is that???? Save yall children from these systems man. They’re set up to fail them all
These people are traumatized. Leave them alone. I actually saw a reporter stop a mother running to the school to see if her child was alive or not. As a parent I thought that was incredibly inappropriate. How do you think they feel? You’re a bunch of ambulance chasers. Real tv journalism is gone. There are other situations you should be following and covering but you avoid them the best you can. You say what you are told word for word. I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream.
Not the same thing obviously but when I was maybe in 2nd, 3rd grade my gym coach had a heart attack and passed away the night before we went back to school and I will never forget that. I will never forget what that did to us kids and I can’t imagine this
WOW just because we are a republican does NOT mean we dont feel hurt when something like this happens, why you all making it about politics when something like this happens in the 1st place??? Alot of us who owns gun do so legaly we are NOT out to do these kind of things, I dont agree with assault rifles but dont take away every bodys guns just because of these bad people out there, we have a right to have guns to protect our homes and go hunting with. I also said more safety of guns are needed around kids, if you own a gun please get a gun safe and lock them up and make sure the kids can not get to the key to unlock the safe. I am not sure if the parents owned the gun he used even, thats something I am still waiting to here. But your wrong about a republicans not caring
What a wonderfully articulated kid. He definitely is traumatized and the way he smiled talking about his teacher Ms. Irimie was heartwarming. This is so sad!
The young man is brave and brilliant for dealing with his trauma, telling wonderful stories about his teachers and friend, which in fact is what is helping him to heal from his own trauma. Great interview and may everyone continue to heal their trauma by self care and talking about it sooner than later.
2:05 “how are you processing this?” this is messed up, he’s clearly very emotional and he should be at home with his family, not being interviewed. And if anyone should be asking him those types of questions, it should be a counselor or psychiatrist. This is terrible journalism.
@donnalouise1218 I'm saying im sick of these comments talking about how the reporter is in the wrong it's HER JOB. Plus, the kid probably agreed to do that interview.
Absolutely ridiculous that she had to throw in that political clout of supporting Harris towards the end. Nobody on either side wants this happening! When are we going to start addressing the Mental Heath issue in America?

Literally the ONLY way to stop this is securing our schools as well as we protect our politicians and banks. Politicians wouldn't be able to exploit this though so it'll sadly just keep happening. Sickening.
R.I.P. for those beautiful lives that was lost. This is not normal. 😐 He needs a therapist not interviewed. He's never going to be the same again, PTSD takes time to settle in then there's survivors guilt. Children's lives matter after birth also. I'm so sorry for your loss Issac. 😢 💔
I blame Republicans for blocking commonsense gun policies, passing millions of assault rifles to sold, permit less guns in public, protecting gun manufacturers from lawsuits,..
Do you know the difference between an armalite rifle and an assault rifle? They aren’t the same. Guns are not to blame either it’s the person who did it, the lack of mental health care and the fbi not investigating the child. Keep voting blue and this will keep happening. The common sense you speak of is something you lack quite a lot.

When is change going to happen you want to silence the world from seeing how this affects our children? Then change will never be made. Your all too sensitive and too stupid. Worried about all the wrong things acting like this kids not going to be able to sleep at night from a few questions. HES NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO SLEEP AT NIGHT BECAUSE PEOPLE GOT KILLED IN A SITUATION THAT HE COULD HAVE GOTTEN KILLED TOO..
This is not responsible journalism... this isn't ok. Nobody needs to hear this young man recount this... we want him to be with his family and to get into counseling asap. He does not need to be on the news
"Next up, an interview with a new born baby on how it felt when their mother died 10 minutes ago giving birth"
😅
Maaaaan
Why do people think this kid didn’t voluntarily chose to be interviewed? This kid is genuine and his voice lets us understand the value of that teachers worth and those that passed away. But no everyone is too busy looking for a reason to complain about something smh
No child after going through something like this is going around telling people they want to be interviewed. That’s literally the last thing anyone would want to do.
@@jsilva7005 So you really think these kids are being forced to do interviews??? lol
@@friday4557 No one said they are being forced. That doesn’t change the fact that it is inappropriate to interview a child, because that is what he is a child, after they went through a tragedy like this. You can still see he is shaken up. The fact that you’re defending this is ridiculous.
@@friday4557 Forced and coerced are two different things. It’s a possibility
@@friday4557 I didn’t say they were forced. But I guarantee a reporter went up to him and asked him for an interview. And you remember what it’s like being a kid. How many times did an adult ask you to do something, and you just said yes because they were an adult, not because you actually wanted to.
This interviewer was completely out of line saying “once again, yet again” to this child. Talk about his tragic circumstances, not what’s going on elsewhere. Disgusting.
Kids are aware that school shootings are a constant threat here, it's not diminishing his pain.
I get what you mean. She was speaking to him in the beginning like an adult.
Mrs. lrimie sounds like an awesome teacher R.i.p❤
IZIC DONT LET THIS GET YOU DOWN MAN you had a teacher who caired about you you have to stand tal remember how this person cared about you .. the feelings you are feeling are real connect with your self be some one she would be proud of god bless all of you
You can tell he’s trying not to cry at times, he takes a pause for a second and gulps. I’ve been there. :((
LEAVE THESE KIDS ALONE!!!! The media needs to stop bothering these poor kids!!!!
They should interview these children!! To show the effects it has on them. They are never heard. Show America that values its guns over children. I started crying hearing him speak. this will forever change these children lives. Speak Children SPEAK!!!!!!!!!!!
Look dont take away gun from people who have them legally, NOT everyone would even dream of doing these things who owns a gun we have them to protect our home and to go hunting with, NOT to go on a darn killing rampage with them, there are way to make it safer to own a gun, if you have kids get a gun safe to keep them in and lock it and put the key away in a safe place where the kids can not find it, I also dont agree with assault tyep guns like they said this was, those are not hunting guns to me. But dont take the guns away from people who would never dream of doing these things
Facts as long as they agree to being recorded
Yeah, let the kids SPEAK. Let the kids tell WHAT DRIVES THEM TO DO SUCH THINGS. Stop blaming inanimate objects. But we know if they do tell why it happens and it doesn't jive with the leftwing narrative, it'll be ignored and a misplaced blame will be hatched. You neo marxist have confused kids as to what gender they are, blaming them for some societal grievance, destroyed their family units. Then to top it off you turn around and medicate the hell out of them. Social media and bureaucracy have become the parents of these lost children. So yeah, let them speak, make sure you listen.
How do our children get through something like this, it's so difficult for us adults. You can't go to the park, the mall, a party, school nowhere seems safe anymore. So many broken and scarred, innocence snatched away. When will the madness end?
These kids are traumatized. This should have never happened. Why can't we protect kids and teachers? The killer was ticking time bomb.
That teacher died on her birthday. This is wild. America needs to do something. No other country goes through this.
Parents the media doesn't care about your kids so please stop letting them interview your kids after a tragedy. They have been through enough. You are the adult and should act like you know what's best for them. If they want their 15 minutes of fame then tell them to go on the Price is Right.
It was so brave of him to be able to speak about Ms.Irimie and how she helped him understand Algebra better in only a few short weeks school has been back in session. I hope there are plenty of counselors on hand to help everyone. Once the initial shock wears off, there will be so many feelings and emotions to deal with.
I hate how this has become normalized in America. NO kids should have to deal with this. These kids are going to be traumatized for life and that’s NOT acceptable.
As an educator it is touching to hear this young man describe how his teacher encouraged him. May all of them rest in peace. May God comfort their families and loved ones. 🕊️
This is heart breaking 💔
He immediately smiled when he said her name. ❤ For a teenager to show that emotion, she must be a lovely soul. RIP to Ms Irmie and the other lost lives and strength to the survivors.
😢😢😢😢😢 poor kids. Jesus. Please rid this earth of the evilness that surrounds us. This should not be happening.
Unfortunately, it won't stop while the wicked controls the world.
@@JSM. I hear you friend. This world is so corrupt it's a shame. Kids can't even enjoy being just that.... kids.
Jesus been letting the evilness happen since... forever. Think it's time for a new approach.
@@juliusdv6657 The world lies on the power of the wicked. The question is when does it end and what do I have to do to make it past this wicked world.
So disgusting to have the media interviewing young students.
Everyone can come at Gail but the real problem is not interviews -- the problem is that school shootings and mass shootings are a fact of life in our country. In the 30 years since Columbine we have not done enough as a nation to stop mass shootings and the proliferation of weapons of war. Bless this young man and the tribute he gave to his teacher.
CBS, did you intend to separate the word Aftermath? Because of the teachers?
Cuz I feel terrible for noticing this, but gd that's not okay.
Can’t stand this lady. Poor kid.
Please do not feel ashamed!!! You do you!!! We all learn at our own pace!!! All the best young man ❤
We truly owe our children better!
Thank you for your courage to share your experience student.
Praying for this baby......this child that's hurting so much
I understand the criticism toward interviewing these kids on one hand. On the other hand, I feel like it's important to hear what they have to say. It's important that their love be conveyed and to see that real people are being deeply affected by this and to be able to feel their grief and mourn with them. Such a good kid, and I'm so sorry for what he went through. It's not always easy to find a teacher so patient and caring.
Yea exactly . Kids should be allowed to say what they saw , and if some morons on youtube comments have a problem , doesn’t matter
He does NOT wanna do this interview 💀🙅🏾♂️
Her team asked my mother and I for our consent to be interviewed privately AND on camera.
@@Lezone oh ok my bad bro this just felt forced from the reporter’s end and the constant head shaking threw me off but now that im genuinely thinking about it condolences 2 you for speaking out on someone you knew that unfortunately lost their life definitely not easy and definitely a scary situation to be apart of
He can say "No."
I just want to give this young man a hug. I cannot imagine what he is going through right now.
Why are they keeping the face of the suspect Hidden
This is what I want to know, too? It will come out soon eventually.
He is all over the news now.
He has been thru so much I wouldn’t put him on your channel while you rehash details of this horrific experience
Sad! Poor kids 😢
I love these kids, honesty. Every kid they have interviewed has been so real. I pray for these kids and what their futures will be. It is so sad.
Gun violence is as American as baseball and apple pie.
@@ronaldrothchild4068 Trump is too focused on pandering to gun nuts.
@@EeroHaapala69 the liberal sheep have arrived.
So true ❤️🤍💙 Gun related violence is less than 1/4 as likely as knife related violence, a weapon even Europe won’t ban. Tell me now, would you prefer 20-40 puncture wounds over 1-2?
@@EeroHaapala69baaahhh baaaahhh
The way he smiled while talking about her conveyed a multitude of unspoken words.
I live in South Carolina and recently the area I live in had been putting metal detectors in the schools to prevent stuff like this happening Im a senior in hs and its aggrevating yea but its doing its job and providing safety so cant get upset at it
Yesssss why do yall not care about these kids mental at all! The system is showing us this. They have to go on with life grieving this situation until they heal and when is that???? Save yall children from these systems man. They’re set up to fail them all
These people are traumatized. Leave them alone. I actually saw a reporter stop a mother running to the school to see if her child was alive or not. As a parent I thought that was incredibly inappropriate. How do you think they feel? You’re a bunch of ambulance chasers. Real tv journalism is gone. There are other situations you should be following and covering but you avoid them the best you can. You say what you are told word for word. I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream.
Not the same thing obviously but when I was maybe in 2nd, 3rd grade my gym coach had a heart attack and passed away the night before we went back to school and I will never forget that. I will never forget what that did to us kids and I can’t imagine this
If only Republicans were as upset about kids getting shot as they were when DonOld got that scratch on his ear.
Well this is a democratic tactic used to gain political influence and when you really understand that you’ll see the patterns
WOW just because we are a republican does NOT mean we dont feel hurt when something like this happens, why you all making it about politics when something like this happens in the 1st place??? Alot of us who owns gun do so legaly we are NOT out to do these kind of things, I dont agree with assault rifles but dont take away every bodys guns just because of these bad people out there, we have a right to have guns to protect our homes and go hunting with. I also said more safety of guns are needed around kids, if you own a gun please get a gun safe and lock them up and make sure the kids can not get to the key to unlock the safe. I am not sure if the parents owned the gun he used even, thats something I am still waiting to here. But your wrong about a republicans not caring
but they're focusing on Tiktok ban.
What a wonderfully articulated kid. He definitely is traumatized and the way he smiled talking about his teacher Ms. Irimie was heartwarming. This is so sad!
Almost cried.
The young man is brave and brilliant for dealing with his trauma, telling wonderful stories about his teachers and friend, which in fact is what is helping him to heal from his own trauma. Great interview and may everyone continue to heal their trauma by self care and talking about it sooner than later.
Doesn't have to be this way. Again, another that was on the FBI radar.
Poor kid. This is rough.
soo sad. May God be with their families and friends.
Amen they're going to need strength and healing. Only God can provide,He has healed me through alot of hurt and pain in my life.
2:05 “how are you processing this?” this is messed up, he’s clearly very emotional and he should be at home with his family, not being interviewed. And if anyone should be asking him those types of questions, it should be a counselor or psychiatrist. This is terrible journalism.
@donnalouise1218 I'm saying im sick of these comments talking about how the reporter is in the wrong it's HER JOB. Plus, the kid probably agreed to do that interview.
My b st Friends daughter was shot in the arm. Praying for all the students.
🙏🙏
This is awful. It's hard to learn in an environment where you don't feel safe.
Absolutely ridiculous that she had to throw in that political clout of supporting Harris towards the end. Nobody on either side wants this happening! When are we going to start addressing the Mental Heath issue in America?
I know, I thought that was sick.

Why and how is this News?? Leave the victims alone
That’s so sad knowing that ur teacher died and knowing that ur school was shot up that’s really sad
Literally the ONLY way to stop this is securing our schools as well as we protect our politicians and banks. Politicians wouldn't be able to exploit this though so it'll sadly just keep happening. Sickening.
R.I.P. for those beautiful lives that was lost.
This is not normal. 😐
He needs a therapist not interviewed.
He's never going to be the same again, PTSD takes time to settle in then there's survivors guilt.
Children's lives matter after birth also.
I'm so sorry for your loss Issac. 😢 💔
I blame Republicans for blocking commonsense gun policies,
passing millions of assault rifles to sold, permit less guns in public,
protecting gun manufacturers from lawsuits,..
Do you know the difference between an armalite rifle and an assault rifle? They aren’t the same. Guns are not to blame either it’s the person who did it, the lack of mental health care and the fbi not investigating the child. Keep voting blue and this will keep happening. The common sense you speak of is something you lack quite a lot.
Heart wrenching that kids have to go through tragedies while being in school. We need to protect our children now!!!!! 💙🇺🇸🫶🏼🙏🏼🕊️
