Completely agree speaking as a fellow atheist. I think it's a lovely story and must admit I think I must have had something in my eye when I heard it on the radio earlier!
Could this be the one of the most heartbreaking things ever?

My English son started writing "Mom" when he'd read the Wimpy Kid books!

So you think it's better to say to a little kid something like "Sorry, your Dad's dead. That's the end for him. There is no more Dad so we have to get on with our lives"
or..."Sorry, your Dad's dead. But you know what? He's watching you grow up and he's proud of you and loves you. He can't be with you any more, but he's there watching you"
He's a little kid FFS

That is so sad. I hope they find the kid and stick him on for littering.

Indeed. It's so scarce there has been recent talk of internationally banning its use for anything other than meteorology and cat scan machine thingies. No known method of manufacturing it or synthesizing it artificially, yet this litterbugs kid is wasting it with stunts like this. Absolute disgrace.

Radioactive decay or nuclear fusion are your only options. Annoying really as it's the second most abundant element in the universe and we happen to be orbiting a massive helium-4 generator but until we work out a way to mine the sun, we're a bit stuck.

when we lost our daughter at 23 weeks our eldest wanted to send her a message for christmas. rather than screw the environment even more we posted a letter rather than a ballon.
but hey its only the environment innit. it aint important or anything.

Me too, there is something a bit off about the note, the list contains mainly things that boys would want, yet there are hearts drawn all over it, which is what a girl would do, also the use of the word "mom", not something that would be said in Britain, mum, mam etc yes, it just looks suspect to me.

Remember that we are talking about a kid here who misses his dead Dad. He's not evil you know. And I am sorry for your loss.

You're making assumptions that he's not evil.
