Authorities were called to the Houston-area home of Ted Cruz in response to a call about what later was revealed to be self-inflicted stabbing wounds by his 14-year-old daughter.
And the response to this sad news on Twitter by left, right, and center has been, by and large, a refreshing outpouring of support for the Cruz family during this vulnerable family crisis they appear to be enduring.
Anyone who has ever raised a child — or even been raised as a child — knows the pain and empathy that comes with familial well-being. And even though we are still in a bitterly divided partisan landscape, news of the Cruz family crisis has appeared to transcend the typical political grenade-throwing one sees on Twitter and has been replaced by love and support at a very human level.
