You’re exactly right. I can see the other side. From my perspective, if something happened to my kid, I’d call the people that matter and wouldn’t worry about the rest of the world. I’d be so devastated that I wouldn’t care who knew aside from my family. To me when someone posts something on the internet, it never comes across as serious whether they put 5 exclamation points or how they write it. The last thing I’d be worried about would be making a Facebook post in that situation.
OTOH, I can see how this is a quick way to communicate. Similar to the Caring Bridge that will be set up when someone is in the hospital for surgery.
Given the mom's previous posts, I can see your take. The mom seems to make it all about herself.
Tragic.
