My Older Son Died – When I Picked Up My Younger Son from Kindergarten, He Said, ‘Mom, My Brother Came to See Me’

Six Months After Losing My Son, My Younger Child Said, “Ethan Came to See Me.”

Six months after my 8-year-old son Ethan died in a tragic car accident, my younger son Noah came home from kindergarten saying Ethan had visited him — and told him to keep a secret.

At first, I thought it was grief. But school security footage showed something chilling: Noah talking to a man through the playground fence. The man handed him a toy.

It was the truck driver responsible for Ethan’s death.

Police discovered he had taken a maintenance job at the school on purpose. Overcome with guilt, he’d been approaching my son, pretending messages were “from Ethan” to ease his conscience — and telling him to keep it from me.

We filed a no-contact order immediately.

Grief is heavy. But protecting your child is heavier. No more secrets.
