Pictures of their dead children?

The Fiance and Me at a Luau Asked by mandyloo about 1 year ago, 9 answers.

I'm on another site that is for mothers and mothers-to-be. Recently almost like a new trend, the mommy's with angel babies (babies that died at birth), have been posting their pictures of their dead children on the site. It's causes some problems and...

some controversy mainly because some people are more than frightened and disgusted by these pictures. While some people think that they have the right to post them and they are beautiful?

What's your opinion? Do you see no harm in these pictures? Do you think they have the right to post them? What do you think of seeing them?

If it gives someone closure to remembering their child, I guess it's ok, but I wouldn't do it I feel it's way to personal to do that

I understand keeping pictures of your deceased child for your own personal reasons. But posing them on the internet? What do you think of that?

I dont think you need to post them online, unless it is a personal jopurnal or something.

This is a very touchy subject but I have to say that mothers are mothers. Even if their baby died they are still a mother and should be allowed to show other people their beautiful baby, whether that be on the internet or not. I don't think I would like looking at pictures of dead babies but those mothers need to be able to show their children too and my personal opinion shouldn't come in the way.

Maybe it helps with their healing process. I say let them do what they want. If there is a warning that tell you the pictures are graphic then it is your choice to open it or not look at it. Everyone grieves different and I say however you choose to do it is your personal business.

I agree with the warning, the problem I have on the site is that a lot of the mothers don't give a warning, you just open the post, and there they are.
I understand they are their children still, it's just very hard for some people to this.
A warning should definatly be given.

I think these women wanted to be mothers so bad, that it's a therapeutic thing for them to post pictures of their 'babies' so that they feel like they belong to motherhood and is accepted by these group of mothers online.

I think if you go into the thread or w/e that they posted the pics on, they're fine. I assume they aren't lying or anything about what the pictures are. I think it's fine. I wouldn't do it, but I understand the need to. They are still mothers, and the babies are still people.

I think there does need to be some sort of warning or I feel like those mothers are imposing their babies onto unwanted viewers. Just have some consideration.
