Kids see silver lining in wake of Superstorm Sandy
(CBS News) POINT PLEASANT BEACH, N.J. - In the aftermath of superstorm Sandy, nothing has mattered more than trying to find a kitten named Monkey -- at least not to 12-year-old Casey Sullivan of Point Pleasant Beach, N.J. On Monday, her family had to evacuate without their cat. "Because we can't bring pets everywhere we go, so we had to leave them, hoping for the best," Casey says. And that's just one example of the ocean of worry that has swamped so many kids on the coast this week. It started, ironically, on Sunday, when parents told their kids not to worry. "I definitely yelled at my dad a lot," says 11-year-old Michaela Sless, of Margate, N.J. "I said, 'I don't know who to trust, you or the weatherman. '" Michaela says her parents ignored the mandatory evacuation.

Key:
- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
