Check out all Martina McBride reactions 😊 : kzfaq.info/sun/PLBxxPN1NmvZq69ncX6gAmRcE8qxRH6f7s

Saw a wonderful quote that's so appropriate for this, "Every child deserves a parent, but not every parent deserves a child". 😢😞

This song will get you everytime. Martina loves to do songs with strong messages. She is a child abuse advocate. Listen to Independence Day.

Love how real and honest you are. This song broke my heart. But Martina McBride is amazing.

"Concrete Angel's are often put on children's gravestones. The little boy is an angel who takes her to heaven and other children who were probably abused too.

she flew to heaven where she will be loved

this song was close to home for martina, her sister killed her niece, angela carter the name on the headstone, after a bitter divorce. i just have to hear the first few notes to start crying. i have four kids and can't imagine ever raising a hand to them

I haven't heard this song in years & it still brought me to tears. I can't stand parents who do this to their children & blame the child for what they did to them. You may not be able to say anything to them, but you can pick up a phone and call the police, turn them into CPS. DO something to help the children. Don't do nothing that could end up like this cos then it's on you for not doing something that could save the children. Sorry, if i upset anyone, i just can't understand why people hurt children. Children are a gift from God to Love & Nurture, NOT to hurt them or do worse.

Your smile when that little boys sat by that little girl is the most purest and beautiful thing I've seen all day not just made my whole month

This one hits hard. Thank you for sharing how you feel about child abuse and neglect. I was fortunate to have good parents, but my husband dealt with physical and emotional abuse from his parents. It affects him everyday.

Gets me every time I hear it. You have a contagious smile! Absolutely beautiful!

Martina May be new for you but she has been blessing us with her magnificent Voice and story telling for several decades..crossing the country and adult pop music genres. Another part that upset me was the teacher walking by and taking notice but not doing anything?🤬. I respect hearing your views on social matters..it challenges my thought process 👼

Even though the video is 12 years old. unfortunately the issues and the message still apply! 😭 Children don't have a choice about being born. It's up to us to decide to be parents, with all the sacrifices and responsibilities it brings!

Saw Martina in concert so excellent and such a beautiful voice.

This one always hits hard. The fact that Martina wanted to sing this sing in dedication to her niece who was a victim of child abuse and ultimately was killed by Martina's sister. RIP to all the little souls who have lost their lives due to child abuse!😭 Qofy, thank you for keeping it real and for speaking up! Much love to you! ❤

The lil girl was beaten to death. The lil boy was her guardian angel and he was there to take home where is safe and loved.

I can relate to this song I have been through this. Thank God for this young man in my class he knew me enough to know something was wrong no matter how many times I said everything was ok. He did not believe me. And keept on until I told him and not long after that they took me out of that foster home. I thank God for that young man.

I’m familiar with Martina and her beautiful voice! It’s been a long time since I’ve listened to Country Music radio. I got chills when I saw the police and the ambulance in the yard. It upsets me how anyone could see bruises on a child, and obvious bruises like finger marks from an adult, and not report it to the police. This was so hard to watch. This was a heart-wrenching video. I did feel a sense of peace when the boy greeted her and they met up with other children who were angels! You made some very valid points and observations.

The Little Girl by John Michael Montgomery is another touching song on this difficult subject.

Good reaction to a great song.👍🌺

Great reaction from you.

She flies away to a place where she's loved heaven

Hi. I'm glad you got the video's message. People are SHOCKED by the video by the DEATH of a child in a song. This is real life, it does happen DAILY. She tells the reality. Thank you, Martina McBride !! Thank young man to reacting to the video n continuing to spread not just the song but AWARENESS. Peace to you and yours

Heaven she flies to heaven

You had a wonderful reaction to this song. Thank you for your comments. This song is beautiful and sad.

It means heaven she flies to a place where she's loved. In heaven she will be loved. And welcomed.

He was her ANGEL ❤❤❤

Martina McBride's Independence Day is also very good

This is even more touching when you know that Martinas niece really did pass this terrible way !

Martina is all about awareness to domestic violence and child abuse. It’s amazing that she’s so successful in that her songs are about being aware of these tragic situations.

Thank you! You're the first reactor to notice the mom smoking in the next room as a red flag. No one catches that. They smile through most of the video until the shaking-the-child scene. It's so nice to hear from someone who's really watching. :)

Yeah, this one is a punch to the heart. The biggest kick is how the same chorus lyrics that have been playing throughout the song (including the title "Concrete Angel") take on an entirely different meaning in the final verse - going from the little girl spending every day desperately trying to dissociate from her horrible life, to her (concrete) headstone being all that's left of her on earth as her soul finally escapes to Heaven.

These babies that go through a life like this breaks my heart. They did not ask to be born. Parenting, yes, it's a hard job. But I will still take a bullet for my babies (30&35) and my grandbabies. That what a parent does, protect your baby at all cost with your own life if need be.

@QoFyReacts You have the most beautiful smile. I can tell you have a caring soul. God bless you!

Concrete Angel is usually what's on a tombstone, especially when it's a child that died.

This song is hard to listen but I'm glad you reacted to it. More people need to raise awareness about this kind of situations. Thank you Ofra for recommending it and Qofy for sharing your reaction with us 🙂

They were all angels

She went to heaven.

If you think this one is good, you must try her song "Broken Wings" and her biggest hit, "Independence Day." Martina is known for being unafraid to confront uncomfortable topics, like these various forms of abuse.

This song is a particular favorite of mine, because the wounding is so deep. I have watched this video dozens of times, and seen countless reaction videos. Yours… brought me to tears. I know you FELT it. You’re lovely and get a subscribe from me. If you are up for another raw song by the incredible Martina McBride… try Independence Day. It’s extremely personal for me. Much love.

Martina is one of the best ever....loved ur reaction

Yes, they were all angels coming to get her

Concrete Angel is based on a true story. Martina's own neice was beaten to death by her mother when the neice's father left the mother. Martina was on tour at the time and didn't notice what was going on. The beating got gradually worse until she was beaten to death one night. All proceeds from sales of this song go to a charity for child abuse victims.

You are the only one so far who has noticed the mother at the beginning

Tough song, good reaction. Thanks.

A child is a special gift that a parent should appreciate. A gift from God. 🎶💧🎶💧🎵

This is my first time watching you, but your reaction to this song tells me I should subscribe to you. So I did.

Exactly 🙏👏👏👏👏

Lesson to Martina McBride sing Independence Day. I think you will like it.

You have a beautiful soul!

You were right when you said she made a friend but that was an angel sit down by God to comfort her and bring her and the other children home all children go to heaven

New sub! With your smile… if your not still helping out in the church you SHOULD BE!! the world needs more of your heart!! ❤️Tennessee

The line "The teacher wonders but doesn't ask" gets me and bothers me because a teacher has a duty to report even if they are not positive that abuse is the cause.

Hey man, when the little girl meets the little boy in the school yard you just grinned so big it showed what a great guy you are....the other thing is I think the little boy was a victim too and his little girlfriend welcomed him to heaven and brought him to all the other kids that passed before their time. Thank you...this touched me.

Love Martina McBride! Thanks, Ofra, for the suggestion! Saw her when she first came out. She opened for Garth Brooks back in the early 90's. Just beautiful and sad! Definitely a tear jerker! Martina has quite a few of these! Your reactions are always enlightening and real. Thank you for the reaction, Qofy! Independance Day is another strong emotional message that Martina puts out.

Many of us have had some dysfunction in our families, no details are needed. Those who know, know. You are the first one I've seen react to this video that had the same thought I did, that all of the children at the end were dead. That the boy angel knew her pain and there are way too many children who go through this.

I saw your reaction to Alyssa Lies and I was worried about you reacting to this video, I'm glad you caught the importance of the little boy and that he was her angel, so many miss that. Please watch The little girl by john michael montgomery. It is a little sad but it's an amazing story with a good ending

I eventually quit teaching. My supervisors thought I cared too much for the kids. I was considered a rebel.

Its a miracle I survived my childhood.. I cant listen to this song without crying and it brings up so many bad memories

Martina McBride has blessed me all my life with her voice. I grew up in the 80's and 90's and she was an artist that wasn't afraid to talk about what people whispered about from domestic abuse to child abuse and many other topics. She used her platform to spread awareness about these things. I believe I read this particular song was in relation to something that happened to a relative of hers.

I agree with what you said after this video about parents and children

when a person is being abused, they often disconnect their mind to a "happy place" to not have to feel the pain.

That's heaven my bro

This song was written about Martina's niece who died from child abuse. In fact the headstone in the video is actually her niece's.

I love every song by Martina McBride that I've ever heard, I'm not sure she has any bad songs, if she does then I just don't know them I guess and there's so many beautiful ones by her but this one gets me every single time, doesn't matter how many times I hear it, you just never can become immune to it I suppose, I cry like an absolute baby every single time I hear it. I just can't help it, I think of my own children, what I would do if someone ever hurt one of them or tried to and then I think about other children and the fact that this kind of thing happens, all the time, like actually happens to these little beautiful gifts from God, people actually do this to their own children and it breaks my heart every single time I think about it. I just cannot wrap my head around the idea that someone could look at the innocent face of a child and even consider hurting them in any way, any child but especially their own child and especially the mother of that child, fathers too, it's just as bad when it's a father but it's different when it's a mother, it seems almost like it's worse somehow if it's the mother, that's not to say that it isn't still absolutely horrific if it's the father but if you're that child's mother then you've carried that child within your own womb, you gave birth to that child and then to treat them anything like this, I just can't understand what could possibly go through a person's mind that would cause them to do anything like that, I don't know, I guess there's not too much I can say about it really other than I just do not understand it at all.

Hate parents who think they OWN those kids. All children should be loved, cherished and protected.

You are observant ❤️ great reaction and a new sub

Obviously I had seen this video as I had already given it a like. Came back today after my request for deep song reactions... - puuh, obviosly my consciosness had wiped that one out, you cannot carry these things around all the time, yet I feel it is important to come back now and then to remember and raise awareness... Thanks for you honest and deep felt reaction!

I am a month late seeing this but want to thank you for your comments. Children are to be loved and cherished.

The boy was an angel

😭😭😭😭😭 BEAUTIFUL SONG!!!

She killed her

The children are Angel's from heaven sent by God to bring his children home.

The small plaque/headstone at the end of the video was Martina’s niece. She died at the hands of her mother (Martina’s sister)😢😢

God's Will,Independace Day & Broken Wings are 3 more beautiful sad songs by Martina

He was her guardian angel

He was her angel

Angela carter is a 7 year old girl who had a fighting spirit and she was the niece of Martina McBride

Martina is a powerhouse. You should do Independence Day live

A lot of children die this way across America and around the world. "The teacher sees but she doesn't ask." yea, that's exactly how it happens. People see the bruises, hear the screams, and turn away because it's "none of our business." and a child grows up broken or doesn't get a chance to grow up at all. I managed to survive the monsters that were my parents. But when I was little I wished that they would kill me so it could stop. Just because you don't know them, or it's not your family, or IS your family...if you see it happening do something. Don't just turn away. That child might be dead by tomorrow if you stay silent...

i grew up with this song and the red flags you mentioned were the things i took to heart and kept from the video even today i was always there for my friends if i saw something off i point blank asked them and made them talk to me and also i love watch first reactions to this song because it catches so many off guard

Well said and heart felt. QoFy.

This song she wrote because her sister beat her daughter to death. The name on the Headstone, is her niece.

I remember seeing this when I was really young, I watched it in a library I was probably about 10 years old and it absolutely ruined me like Jesus Christ that scarred me for a while

Being a parent is the most difficult most important job we do in our lives. We bring our children into the world and our job is to care for them, love them and let them know the world is theirs if they work for it. We teach by example by working hard and providing for their material as well as emotional needs. Then we let them go off to live for themselves and learn life's lessons hoping we showed them enough to get past the hard spots. You never stop caring for and loving your children. You are right that no one owes a parent anything...they have taken on the job and do it in the best way possible. My son is a meth and heroin addict and I worry about the call no parent wants every day. To parents out there that think "my child would never do that" or "my kid wasn't raised that way"...neither was mine. Love them but educate yourself to know what to look for and always be watchful. They are our future...guard them carefully. Now child abuse against a young child should be answered in the same way as it is meted out. If I saw a parent doing this to a child I would beat them down...Im not that big but a bat would even things out...punishment in kind. If you see or think abuse is there report it.

Martina McBride is my favorite singer and the song is good but sad

You: 😀she made a friend😀 Me: yeah a friend sure lets keep it at that

You also did "Alyssa Lies" by Jason Michael Carroll about the issue of domestic violence against children. Thanks so much for these sensitive reactions. Your subscribers should check that video you did

Yes, that phone number and website are still valid. You can also sent text messages to that same number. Keep in mind that this is a US National number so if you are outside of the United States you may have to search for information on reporting Child Abuse in whatever country you are in. I am sure that Canada and European countries have this own contact information for reporting abuse

Martina McBride has a lot of social message songs, Independence Day is another song with a totally different message or God's Will

I Know...it's like getting punched in the guts and the reaction is anger then sadness that anyone can hurt a child like that. Martina used her platform and music to bring issues into the light that needed to be highlighted. Give your kids a hug everyone, it's needed.. Nice reaction. all I ask is that an artist move me somehow...this does...Try Martina's Broken wing, or God's Will.

No one else saw the boy. He was there to get her through the ordeal. This song always makes me tear up.

Another good song like this but with a happy ending is THE LITTLE GIRL by Micael Martin Murphy I think. Easy to find

I think the little boy was an angel sent to guide her home.

The boy was her guardian angle. He was there to make sure she wasn’t alone and to help guide her to heaven. All the other kids are angels that went through similar situations. That is how I interrupted the video with the song.

💞

"Mother is the name for God on the lips and hearts of all children." Brandon Lee The Crow

the boy is her angel Taking her to heaven and the other kids or angel.

You should also see broken wing

Mr. QoFy, I just saw that you did do a Reaction video to Jason Michael Carroll’s song & video “Alyssa Lies”. Please excuse my previous request.
