If they did not end up in hell, it would seem Andrea Yates' plan worked, and she got her children into Heaven.
So why complain about her methods when her children are right now sitting in the lap of Jesus?
Are you not simply trying to distract us from your selfish desire to see your own soul in heaven, whether your children make it or not?
Come now, answer the questions with no further distractions. If you love your children more than your own life, why not love their souls and send them to Jesus without giving them a chance to sin?
If God doesn't care how the children come to him, willing to receive them in Heaven because they are saved, why should it matter what happens to you as long as you get your children into heaven?
Or do you not love your children and are willing to see them fall from grace and end up in Hell rather than risk your own soul for their sake?

My Children are on loan from GOD. They were given to us for a reason. To kill them and blame GOD for the sin would be no better then thinking up a question as demonic as yours.
May GOD bless you anyway.

No, I do not think they are in hell, but I honestly believe that she thought they were going there. I've seen a lot of prisoners who have those kind of psychosis problems. The sad part is that it might of been avoided if the insurance company kept her confined more than two weeks at a time. Let's face it, two weeks here and there isn't going to do anything. It takes time and trial and error. She will probably never get out but at least she is getting help. The sad part is some child may now die because their Mom or Dad doesn't want them and try to use her problem as theirs, as an excuse to get out from under them and to try and get away with something. Besides I think all children go to heaven.

They went to Heaven without a doubt. God wants us to have abundant life on this earth while we are here - we are not to take someone else's life either - whether they be our children or other. We all have choices - God gives us choices - He loves us and did not make us robots. That is real love - isn't it? Letting us choose Him. God is so good. If you knew the Truth - you would not be asking these questions. Truth is a person - Jesus Christ.

If this was really God's plan, then why would anyone be born. Would you take your life to get there sooner? I wouldn't. I have things to do for the Lord.
If her children weren't to the age of accountability, then I believe them to be in heaven.
Even God didn't have Abraham kill Issac. The Bible says sacrificing children is disgusting... IE passing them through the fire to Molec. I view abortion as the same thing.
So are you justifying murder?

The children would've gotten to heaven if they didn't understand heaven or hell. It wasn't right for Andrea Yates to kill her children so they could get to heaven.

Who told you that God doesn't care how children get to heaven? That is the most ridiculous statement I have heard in a while. Not only does he care how the children get in heaven he is also concerned for the parents welfare. God wishes eternal damnation on no one.

there was a plan for these children and perhaps this was GOD'S plan they not grow up but be murdered for people to question
" why ".
personally feel that to deliberately take the life of ones children in this respect is one of the worst things anyone could possibly do. good thing I couldn't give the sentence on her as She would suffer greatly, but then this is GOD'S decision not mine.

I love my children enough to want them to experience the gift of life that God gave to them. I love them enough to let them experience the gifts of love, friendship and joy. I love them enough to let them experience anger, grief and sadness.
I don't doubt she loved her children, but she was mentally ill. Had she gotten the help she needed, those children would be here today. What she did wasn't about love, it was about illness.

Have a rest, pal. This topic is getting a bit stretched and dull.
Have you no knowledge of the law?
