    I'm not going to post it, as i feel bad enough for my own eyes being exposed to it but it was one of those boy talks to girl status where she's dying and doesn't tell him... she dies and he blows his head off cos he said he'd die for her ....

    Since the 1st of january this pile of turgid shite has had over 175k likes..... I feel like posting a comment on it saying anyone who liked it or commented is retarded.

    Wait, what was the photo of?

    A 14 week old fetus. Quite possibly the saddest thing Ive ever seen.

    Cannot believe parents would do that

    Sweet jesus, why on EARTH would anyone do that?!! Surely it contravenes FB's rules on pics, no?

    I dont know! I went on her page and there it was!
    I just felt horrible, I didnt want to see that! :( IMO she should just have some respect for the baby thats just died and keep it private.

    Also, at only 14 weeks it would barely even resemble a full-term baby-it wouldn't even be properly formed! TBH even if it was full-term, the general public still don't need to see it :eek:

    That's really not a healthy way to deal with the grief..

    It just looks like a tiny baby, this might be a bit disturbing to people>
    the skin is still transparent so its completely red, the eyes are bulged and the face hasnt completely formed. Tiny hands with no nails. Just lying there in a hat with a blanket over it. Christ its so depressing

    I genuinely am baffled as to why anyone would want to share that with people. She has over 700 friends so its not like its only close family who would be seeing it. Also there's an option to only show certain people. Judging by the amount of 'likes', she hasnt done that.

    A few people on my friends list liked them, it shows a lot on suggested pages so people probably like it without doing any research into YD.

    A massive number people I know there don't seem to do a lot of reading.........when I mean a lot, I mean roughly 30 seconds on Google.

    Irony being that if they did read up on YD, I know they'd be horrified.

    Did no one object in the comments? Yes it would be difficult, considering she's the mother,but my god that must have been a terrible picture to look at.

    I would have thought so considering you can't show nipples, to the Breastfeeding groups annoyance.

    There's about 30/40 comments on it, all saying they are sorry for the loss of her beautiful baby. It looks just like you, was too special for the world. No complaints at all. One person actually said thanks for sharing your beautiful child with us.

    If that was in Ireland, I cant imagine anyone seeing it and not reporting it.

    Hi Beautiful Ladies....Without replying to this message, put a heart on your wall; no comment, just a heart. Next, post a heart on the wall of the person who sent you this message. Then send this message to your women friends, only women. If anyone asks you why you have so many hearts on your wall, don't tell them. This is only for women, because this is breast cancer research week. One small act of solidarity between women. PS...to type a heart, first type < then 3.. It will turn into a heart when you post it!

    Yeah of course, but it doesnt change my opinion. I think its a lack of respect and the photos should be kept private. Not put up on facebook where anyone could see it. Plus, not only that, but horrifically sad and not something I was popping up on my newsfeed, ever.

    Well yeah but to her its her baby that she wants people to know existed, other proud mums get to introduce their baby to the world, as far as she's concerned its her beautiful baby not a dead foetus.

    Losing a child tends to affect people. If a mother who lost a child is a bit irrational for a period of time, suck it up.

    of course it does. But really, a picture of a baby, dead or alive, is a very private thing, and should be kept to oneself, or at most shared only with friends. And I mean real friends, not Facebook ''friends"

    If we can included those scan pictures aswell, I'm sick of seeing them from people I don't know all that well :( I'm just waiting for the pictures from the delivery room, I missed the ones of the conception :rolleyes:




    *also think how these pictures might affect other people unable to get pregnant/who have had a miscarriage, they do not need to see this popping up the whole time.

    Your last point is something I meant to say earlier. I know a friend of mine suffered a miscarriage very early in pregnancy, and photos of a foetus, let alone a scan, absolutely destroy her. She never got a chance to see her child after it passed and to see someone else's is really hard.

    Sure we'll agree to disagree, we all have different opinions on it. I personally don't agree with it and putting it on Facebook means its going to appear on people's newsfeed. Some people would be really disturbed by it, child or not, its a graphic image.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    If you think about it - how many people that you're friends with on Facebook would you actually talk to about grieving for the loss of a child? Probably not many because it's an intensely private and deeply tragic thing to have to deal with. I imagine if I lost a child I would find it difficult to talk about it except to my closest personal friends and family.

    That's why I find it extremely odd that people share things like that online for all to see. It's just something I can't ever get my head around.




  • People "liked" a picture of her dead foetus?!! I don't want to live on this planet anymore...

    That's the problem with people who put up 'bad news' statuses...I think people 'like' them to show support but it comes off so callous!

    I've posted this before on Boards, but a close friend of mine died last year and another friend of hers who's a bit of a d1ck came to the funeral with a massive camera and took loads of photos. He put up a status the next day that said 'really sad but beautiful day' with all the pictures he'd taken. The worst part was that he'd tagged pictures of the coffin as our dead friend! So the news feed said 'X has been tagged in 10 pictures in the album: X's funeral'

    :eek:

    I'm not keen on those death statuses either and all the people liking them. It's not that I mind them announcing the death but the ones that are written as if they are talking to the dead person:confused:


    e.g.: I m1ss you, today we would have done x,y,z,. Your birthdays not the same without you, etc.

    Done by complete and utter attention seekers.

    I always picture these people in front of the computer typing these and the child beside them


    child: look what I made/can do, look I can stand on my head and draw the mona lisa
