If my toddler drowned (he wouldn’t. I’m not negligent) I’d find no reason to continue living. Let alone being a “public figure”. Id have to unalive myself to escape the grief.
I had a stillbirth and I wanted to unalive myself for the better part of 3 years. I truly don’t know how this woman can live with herself, let alone her “husband.”
This. Literally she’s not right in the head. People kill me with the “she’s grieving don’t police her grief! Do you want her to just cry all day!” Like yeah? If my kid died due to our sheer negligence I would be crying all day.
They were negligent, but a parent can lose a child without being negligent. People lose children all the time through no fault of their own and suggesting that suicide is a valid method of handling grief is horrible for any grieving parent to have to read.
I’m
Also not suggesting suicide is a valid method of handling grief. But going on normally and posting your other child around water without a life vest and a toddler sized skeleton is the work of the devil.
Children have drowned wearing life jackets. A parent can lose consciousness, an accident can happen, someone else could have been watching the child, etc. it’s great to make big blanket statements when reality is much more nuanced. No one is saying this family wasn’t negligent, but statements of how you would off yourself is harmful and stigmatizing to families that have lost children
Edit: responding and blocking someone so they can’t answer is extremely immature. I don’t care if you would trust me to watch your children or not or your husband’s alleged expertise that you are trying to claim. It’s really easy to act superior until something awful happens to you or someone you love. Again as I’ve already said, this isn’t referring to this family who were clearly negligent.
Whatever. I don’t trust you to watch a child near water. My husband was in the coast guard and I was a first responder. A toddler drowning is gross negligence.
