It’s legitimately the only thing that scares me to death. I’ve had 2 separate very close friends of mine each lose a young child, both were horrible accidents, and the funerals were the two worse days of my life.
I couldn’t even imagine how I could go on with my life.

One more sad pool story: a family with pool was having a gazebo built. The construction guys left the gate open to the back yard as they were bringing in supplies, etc. for construction.
The next door neighbor's 3 year old wandered into the back yard and subsequently fell into the pool and drowned.

Frankly everyone should just go to prison. It’s the answer to every situation.

I’m sure his publicist is handling his social media

I don't think I could handle it but for my surviving kids. If they all went, I'd probably be right behind.
Bottom line is a parent cannot have eyes on their kid every second. It's not neglect. shite like this happens that fast. It might take a parent two minutes to realize that the next room is suddenly quiet, or that the kid isn't right there.
I almost drowned when I was a kid. My friend I was with did. Although we were only three, we managed to get out of a house to go play by a pond because a door that everyone thought was locked was not locked. His parents managed to carry on, but they carried that guilt/sadness/destruction forever.
Everything can be great, then it can all turn to shite in half a second.

It is not as stupid as you think. Some may call it classic fear of failure but having a child makes you so much more vulnerable in every sense of the word.
Prekids- Believe you are invincible, dare anyone to prove to you otherwise, rest easy in the knowledge that you are an untouchable, enjoy that 'nothing really rattles me, I'm a rock'. Read things like these stories and think "man that must really be hard for them"
Postkids- See everything as a potential threat, take pause before doing anything remotely crazy with a stern warning to yourself "do you want your kids to have a father", read things like these stories and lay in bed at night staring at the ceiling trying to force imagining "what if this had been mine" out of your head because the worry and the angst are gut wrenching.
All I can say is, despite all of that, they are worth it. Unfortunately that fact is really difficult to believe until you hold your own

Yep
The death of my sister was beyond words how it affected my family. My mother essentially went mad.

Never thought I'd see someone actually hit rock bottom on TD, but you accomplished it.
I don't think it's warranted most of the time, but you definitely deserve a lifetime ban.

I started a reply to this tread three times. I’ve been asked this question in some form or another constantly for almost two decades.
Losing a child alters your life forever. I will never be the same person. But, life is about choices. I prayed about his death and for direction. I don’t wear my faith openly and certainly am not preaching here. I believe a life of despair is the easy choice. Living is hard. Choosing to be happy is hard. For example, it is hard to see your friends, parents of your child’s friends, talk about scouts, graduation, college, ball — things and life events neither I nor my child will experience. What is the alternative? Death? Does that somehow honor the memory of one’s child? Does that honor one’s parents? Does that honor God? I choose to live, to do my best to be a decent person, to help others, to be kind (admittedly something I struggle with in the presence of the willfully ignorant).
I realize I kid myself sometimes. I will never be whole again. There is a wistfulness that never goes away. I struggle with being still. Like an alcoholic I take happiness one day at a time. I go along for days, months until some event triggers the pang of the feelings of loss.
My heart goes out to Bodie Miller. You wake up happy and you go to sleep living a nightmare. I at least had a chance to say goodbye.
As I wrote earlier I struggle with being kind to the willfully ignorant. So I leave this for the poster who wrote Bodie Miller should be in jail. Maybe, time will tell. May you never live the agony Bodie Miller will live with for the rest of his life.

If this happened because of negligence, then I would agree.

I would comment back with something angrily worded. The truth is, you weren't there and you aren't the one suffering the f'ked up loss of a child. It helps nothing. They are paying their price in full. I get it. It sucks, and it LOOKS like they weren't responsible enough.
Bottom line is you weren't there, so don't help create negative public sentiment over something you know nothing about.
The social media complaint of yours would only barely apply if they weren't public figures. Regardless, however someone chooses to grieve is their business. Not yours.
