The GoFundMe for two year old Aiden McCarthy has passed $3 Million.

And it's only been three days. He's the toddler who lost both his parents to the Highland Park mass murderer. That must be some kind of GFM record. It's good to know he has a secure future financially but I'm sure as time goes by he would much rather have his parents.

1. Absolutely amazing

Nice to know that despite all the awful things going on, Americans can still be generous.

2. right now it is 7,290 a month for life

no taxes.

But he will never get to play softball with his Mom and Dad watching, never bring a date home to meet the parents, never go on a family vacation with his parents, etc.

4. There was a $44 million fundraiser on GFM for hunger in the early days of the pandemic.

We have the resources to ensure people have the support they need; unfortunately, something like GFM ensures that those resources continue to be distributed unequally.

5. I'm just heart broken, he was there and his parents died trying to save him.

He will know he was loved that much.

Money can help with stuff and college, but he'll carry a priceless weight and money won't lessen that burden.

This father and his son, should spend the rest of their lives behind bars.

7. I agree

Given a choice, he would have his parents back. The generosity will help him out, but of course it can’t bring his parents back. Yes, they should both be behind bars - the father for a long time, too.

8. Oh I agree, it's a kind gesture from caring people.

6. depends on whether it is all stolen by his legal guardians nt
