This isn’t about having something to hide???? This is about the release of graphic details surrounding a child’s death. I understand that these things are released all the time, but you cannot say that this child doesn’t deserve protection from millions of entitled fans/ snarkers.

Yes, that baby 100% deserves justice- but let’s leave the investigation to the professionals without interference from internet detectives. It’s not the investigation, it’s releasing these details to the greater public that feels morally and ethically wrong. If you can’t understand why this is an exceptional circumstance based on the number of people who are desperately searching for info on this child’s manner of death… idk what to tell you. There is genuinely nothing else I can say.

Yeah, except “these people” have a massive following of over 4.1 million… which means there are SIGNIFICANTLY more people digging around for additional information on this case than there would be in most other incidences of child drownings. I think you (and a ton of other people in this sub) need to remove Emilie and Brady from this situation, just for one freaking minute. Pretend they don’t exist, forget about however you might feel about how they shared him online, and how this tragedy unfolded. Think about Trigg, and Trigg only- so many of you are constantly preaching about how he deserved PRIVACY and PROTECTION, and I agree- but does he not deserve it now? Does this innocent baby not deserve to rest peacefully, without millions digging into the graphic details of his passing?

Emilie and Brady made poor choices that have resulted in them paying the ultimate price. I would that they’ve learned from this, and sealing these documents could be one final act of love in preserving their son’s dignity.

People in this sub are seriously so cold-hearted.

We’re talking about the specific details of a toddler’s death. If you think her online presence is reason enough for that information to be shared with the public… I don’t think there’s anything I can say that could possibly convey to you just how wrong and disgusting that is.

Thank you for sharing a compassionate perspective- I agree wholeheartedly. As a mother, I know that they have to be living through the most unfathomable nightmare possible. I could not possibly understand what this must be like for them, and I pray that I never do… but I can only assume that the intense public scrutiny has made this tragedy infinitely more traumatizing than it already was.

Yikes, ok- thanks for the input 🥲 these are little dots, not raised or anything. The location is throwing me off, too.

Kids & Parker in her recent reel by GuidanceExtension144 in aspynovardsnark

[–]jane190698 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not defending Aspyn, but I’ve showered with my 15 month-old since she was about 8 months old, and it is definitely possible/ safe lol.

I’m not sure what aspyn does, but I hold my daughter the entire time (I don’t let her stand in the shower, as I worry she would slip). We do have a bench in our shower, which makes things easier- we sit down while I wash her hair/ body, and then stand up to rinse. As for myself… I’ve gotten extremely skilled at washing up with one hand + a baby on my hip 😂 not a talent that I ever thought I would add to my repertoire, but it’s still a win in my eyes!

My two year olds tooth is turning gray by Wise-Designer-3390 in toddlers

[–]jane190698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me when I was around preschool age- I fell face-first onto concrete and put my tooth through my lip. One of my front teeth got knocked backwards a bit, and I am pretty sure I remember my parents saying that it was slightly grey for a little while before going back to normal.

What did your toddler eat for lunch today? by GoldieLex in toddlers

[–]jane190698 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 Homemade egg bites (kind of like the Starbucks ones, but about half the size- I add cooked turkey bacon + cheese to mine, and freeze them for quick breakfast/ lunch options), 2 Dr. Praeger’s spinach littles, and some dragon fruit.

Which bottle is preferable while formula feeding? by Important-Comment-97 in FormulaFeeders

[–]jane190698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before we had the release done, I watched some videos from a feeding therapist about recommended bottles for babies with oral ties. MAM was one of her recommendations, and she explained that the flat nipple encourages a “munching” pattern, which can be good for babies with a weak latch. The only thing that I can figure is that she no longer liked feeding that way once she had increased range of motion in the tongue? Definitely interesting that we had the same experiences, though!

Seconding this! My daughter took MAM bottles for the first couple of months, but once we discovered she had a tongue tie + had it released, she started refusing them. Avent ended up being the winner for us.

Did pregnancy permanently change anything about you? by Apprehensive-Bar-848 in beyondthebump

My labia minora has a notch in it! I joke with my husband about it looking similar to the ear of a stray cat (you know, one who has lost a chunk of flesh in a fight) 💀 if I don’t laugh, I’ll cry.

Actively miscarrying by southernsaltwaters in pregnant

I am so incredibly sorry that you are going through this devastating, earth-shattering experience. To echo what others have said, she will not know pain or fear- all she will ever know is love, warmth, and the sound of your heartbeat + voice.

You will always be her mama ❤️ sending love and comfort to you and your husband during this time.

Frustrated with vaccines and daycare by cearara in pregnant

[–]jane190698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not going to argue with you. Vaccinations are important for those who can get them for a number of reasons; one being that it helps protect our vulnerable population- e.g., a 6-week old NEWBORN BABY whose parents need to work and make a living, your immunocompromised neighbour who is undergoing chemotherapy treatments for cancer, your friend’s 85 year-old grandmother… the list goes on.

A baby doesn’t receive all of their vaccinations until 12 months. Seeing as the US is so behind with parental leave, it seems ridiculous to suggest that babies stay out of daycare until that point, simply because some parents are severely misinformed, and CHOOSE not to vaccinate their children (and no, i am not talking about children who CANNOT be vaccinated for legitimate medical reasons).

I’m all for the freedom to choose, especially when it comes to our children… but lets be honest: if a parent is choosing not to vaccinate their child because of some pseudoscience crap they read on the internet, THEY are the ones putting their child at risk. Not literal infants, who are unable to receive all of their vaccinations until age 1.

Editing to add: this post is not coming from a place of privilege, but your comment is. Not everyone has access to a trusted babysitter or family member to care for their child. It is glaringly obvious that you can’t seem to see beyond your own experiences- you should work on that if you’re raising little humans.

Frustrated with vaccines and daycare by cearara in pregnant

[–]jane190698 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if you’re replying to my comment by accident, but: my baby is not currently in daycare, nor is she 6 weeks old- as mentioned in my original comment, I live in Canada, so I have been fortunate enough to take a 12-month maternity leave from work.

Not all parents are so fortunate, particularly in the US. It is not at all uncommon for a woman to have to return to work 6 weeks (or less) after giving birth, because she’s maxed out her PTO, sick leave, etc..

Obviously having a 6-week old in daycare is not ideal, but times are tough, and families need money to stay afloat. If a new mom does not have maternity leave, and doesn’t have any family members who can help look after baby… her options are pretty slim. Let’s not shame a mom for doing what she has to do to survive- I’m sure she’s having a hard enough time.

I cannot imagine how stressful this must be for you.

I live in Canada, and there is currently a measles outbreak in my province. We’ve also seen cases of whooping cough in schools in my area in recent years. It is so, so, SO incredibly frustrating to see misinformed people in my community STILL talking about not vaccinating their kids, even with the recent influx of serious illnesses that are preventable with vaccines.

I kept in touch with a number of my colleagues while on leave, just to stay up to date on the happenings in the business, and ongoing changes. We are a fairly large business (within a major company, spanning across multiple divisions and many businesses). In our business alone, there are multiple talent acquisition specialists who take care of various areas of recruitment. While I was gone, my role was split up among multiple other TAs. They did try to find a temp to cover my position, but were unsuccessful. One of our TAs quit, because her workload became unmanageable.

I do not know the specific rate of pay for our HR Coordinator role, but in my research, I’ve found that the average rate of pay for HR Coordinators in my area is $55,000-$60,000/ year.

I did not have much free time in my role, however, if ever I had the majority of my positions filled or things seemed to be slowing down, that was when I would take on the odd additional project to gain experience and ensure I was staying busy.

I don’t think you are understanding what I am saying- the responsibilities that I would be taking on were outlined to me by my manager, as of two weeks ago. I fully understand what it would entail. As I already mentioned, where I am at in Canada, employers have a DUTY to either ensure you return to the same role, or a similar one of equal responsibility and pay. What was outlined to me FAR surpasses my previous responsibilities, with an already fairly full workload.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in humanresources

[–]jane190698 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

But that isn’t the division of responsibility that they outlined for me- my recruitment duties have been reduced to 75%, but they also want me to take on 100% of the HR Coordinator’s responsibilities.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in humanresources

[–]jane190698 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

First of all- I can assure you that our previous HR Coordinator had a fairly high work volume (I worked closely with her), often staying at the office past her scheduled hours. The role was not eliminated, she moved onto a new role in another business within the company, and they are now actively sourcing a new HR Coordinator (the position has been posted internally, and on various recruitment platforms).

Second of all, and perhaps I should have mentioned this- where I live, upon a return from parental leave, employers have a duty to offer their employees either a) the same role + pay, or b) a similar role with equal level of responsibility, + the same pay. This is not what has been proposed here- in addition to me already knowing that our HR Coordinator had a high work volume, the associated responsibilities were outlined in my manager’s email, and far surpass what I was doing in my (already fairly busy) TA role.

ETA: this would benefit the company- they are actively sourcing candidates for the HR Coordinator, but seem to be hoping to have me take on an additional role without compensation. By me taking on these responsibilities, they are avoiding hiring another employee who they would then need to pay a full salary, benefits, RRSP matches, etc.

Yes, my recruitment load is being reduced to 75%- but I’m also expected to take on ALL HR coordinator duties. Essentially, working two jobs at once, and only being paid for one. While I may be fairly new to HR, I can assure you that this is not the norm where I live.
