They probably didn't know of the danger.

Most beaches around the world don't have this problem of whatever 'sneaker waves' you're talking about.

Authorities are saying they were walking on an "off-beach trail" when the wave hit.

So the mom was from Phoenix. She likely wouldnt know crap about the beach. Dont know about the dad. Story says they were on an Off Beach Trail, whatever that means.

I read about this yesterday. How awful to lose two children. I'm glad to see people being so generous. $43,999 in donations so far.

$43L for what? There are people trying to stay alive, that don't get that much.
 Quoting: pool


"We are requesting support to help the Stiles Family with funeral expenses as well as the grief and trauma supports for the parents and extended family to recover from such a tragic loss."

Go fund me for everyone...
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75426142


Goal is $75,000 USD.

Looks like they're also looking for adoption money for 2 replacement kids.

I agree, some of the comments are absolutely spineless and selfish.

You can be certain that this man wasn't trying to put them in harms way intentionally. Yes it was stupid... it might have been bad judgement but I'm sure he LOVED his kids and this wasn't the intention. A child is precious and a human that close to you being washed away must be beyond devastating.

If any of these basement dwelling losers had this happen.. their lives would be shattered.

He will blame Trump.

The Oregon coast is shipwreck alley. The largest sand dunes in N American are on the south/central Oregon coastline. Winter storms are brutal.

Absolutely beautiful beeches there, but cold with very strong rip tides. Apparently, as people get smarter in the digital age, they cannot recognize obvious things such as a rip tide--something I was taught about when I was 5 years old.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76715453


Southern Oregon coast here.

Yep, we get tourists and people who've never been here before all the time, who don't realize that you NEVER turn your back on the ocean here, or walk close to the waterline when the surf is huge in the middle of winter. Especially when walking on rocks and outcroppings and jetties.

Thankfully, most of them that make this mistake just get soaked, and maybe beat up a bit, but don't end up like these poor children did.

Doesn't mean you can't go to the beach and enjoy storm watching, but you have to be PRUDENT about how close you walk to the water, because these "Sneaker Waves" happen TOTALLY at random, and can throw a log in the surf at you with a crushing velocity.

Take a look at Shore Acres, about 10 minutes from my house.

Very sorry for their loss however it doesn't cost that much to provide funeral service for 2 deceased children. Unless of course the parents want to go all out with every frivolity you can imagine.
Plus a nice vacation afterwards.
I'm sorry but this seems a bit greedy on the family's part.
A modest request with an end goal say 10,000 dollars would be more appropriate but whatever.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29208582


Where are you from? I know two different people who lost children over the past few years. Each of their funerals ran in excess of 18K.

The costs or horrendous.

It's horrible what happened. The dad has to live the rest of his life with it.

The mother must be beyond herself in grief.

I feel sorry for the entire family.

Maybe the dad didn't know or understand the danger, he must not have to put himself and his children in that situation.

These people can't even see it's not man running the climate change, they're so arrogant so godless and so idiotic.

Too bad about the children, sure they have it better with God than this dad seeing they never reached the age of accountability.
