Parents Gently Explain To Child That Their Money In Heaven Now

HUNTSVILLE, AL-In an effort to comfort the child by telling her the funds had gone to a far better place, local parents Blake and Allison McKee gently explained to their daughter Friday that their money was in heaven now, sources confirmed. Honey, the reason we're sitting you down today is because even though our life savings isn't with us anymore, you don't need to be scared, because it's now up in the sky where the angels live," said Allison McKee, putting her arms around a sobbing 10-year-old Harper McKee and assuring her that while their wealth wasn't coming back, it was smiling down on them from the clouds. I know you loved the money very much. Daddy and I did, too. But don't worry, your college fund had some really good years. Now it gets to enjoy its everlasting reward. Shh, shh. It's okay, kiddo. Hey, I know. Whenever you start missing our sweet little nest egg, just try to remember all the good times we had being middle class." At press time, the mother was reportedly attempting to console her heartbroken daughter by stressing that this was all part of the natural stock market cycle.
