If you haven't read my posts, before, I don't have kids...and I'm not exactly a kid friendly type person. That being said, this recent media coverage of people who've lost their kids is a tish ridiculous. If a reporter even tried to interview me after I lost a loved one, I would not hesitate to beat the crap out of them. In fact, I would break their camera....and as a photographer, I know I'd be doing some serious monetary damage to them. And I wouldn't care what the repercussions were..

But why does the media get away with doing this? I'm waiting to see live coverage of some parent beating some reporter who tries to interview them in that state or attack a photographer who tries to get pictures of their house ect...just for profit. Let's face it, the whole "public has a right to know" is BS. What they do is an invasion of privacy. I've only photographed disasters (aftermath of tornados, floods ect..), and have never capitalized from it. This getting interviews/photos for profit should be prohibited in certain cases.

    since you havent lost a child let alone lost a child to someones stupidity..... you NEED to talk about your child, what happened and the $hithole who did it to them. You want to know why.

    I don't think they are breaking any laws, although you would be

    Causing someone bodily harm is not the right course of action

    A) I think you would not actually do these things, you just are using the internet as a medium to act tough
    B) You either have mental health problems or are a bad person

    Sure she is. She's saying the parents who lost their children WANT to talk to the media. They want to talk about what happened and they want to vent their anger about the sh$tbag who hurt their child. It's part of the healing process for some people.

    But I agree that those who say: I don't want to talk about it - should be left alone.

    You're really good at knowing how you would behave in situations most of us can barely imagine. Go you!

    Many of these people are grateful for the prayers the world is sending for them and their children. They WANT to talk about their children. They want their children to be remembered. It can be therapeutic.

    Don't be a dingbat Ruby...or a douchecanoe.... or a weird, nasty, creepy nutbag who hates everything. You don't like kids, you don't like noisy kids, you don't like grieving families talking to the press...you are full of hatred and it's toxic. You're a toxic person who likes to craft. That's almost the worst kind of crafter there is.

    My child is alive. I have no idea how I would respond if something like that happened to her.

    No one who hasn't experienced what those families experienced can tell you for certain how they would behave.
