You're definitely not alone in your fears! I'm the same - every sad or terrible story I read where a small child is involved is that much worse because I have my own child to imagine in the place of the one in the story. I've actually had to force myself to avoid reading such news stories because they are so distressing. The Belgium story is all the more unbearable for being close to home.
