WTF? Why would you even say that?
in Chit Chat
I had a nephew that died two years ago, he was 13 months old and his death, in my eyes, was no accident.
Just a couple of minutes ago, my mother said that she should have gotten life insurance for him, that way she would be rich!
I am so angry right now! Am I out of place? Or would you be pissed off as well?

[QUOTE]I'd be pissed too. That was really insensitive. You don't buy life insurance to get rich. FI and I have it on each other so that, god forbid, something happens we won't have to worry about funeral expense or finances for awhile and will be able to grieve. Not to be rich.

Well that makes sense, I just don't know why she would say that about her own Grandson...
But I would never say she would have been rich from life insurance, agian funeral cost plus help keep her on her feet with loosing half of their household income.
I am sorry for your loss.
[QUOTE] I know people really never stop grieving after they lose a loved one, but I just want to slap her for what she said and yes she is very insensitive on a daily basis...

Have you ever brought this to her attention? Im not sure I could have held back if I heard a comment like that.

No shes a loose cannon I guess you could say, she blows up whenever somebody tries proving her wrong... Then it turns into a fight and she acts as if the sky is falling...
So basically, she ALWAYS behaves this way. Absolutely, she's insensitive, but if this is how she is, this is how she is. Rather than wasting your energy and poisoning your own life with your rage at her various comments, you should probably work on finding a different way to react to her, KWIM?
So nobody else is even the slightest bit concerned that OP is essentially accusing somebody of infanticide?
No? We're all just going to talk about how insensitive her typically insensitive mother is and completely overlook murder accusations? Okay then.

I know I'm wondering what actually happened to the baby.
My father has said and done some unforgiving things after my mom passed. Let's just say he was out looking for someone new not too long after...and said some pretty $hitty things.
I have distanced myself from him, and from your responses, I suggest you do the same.
She sounds like a horrible person inside and out.
There's no way anyone could grieve peacefully while that witch is around.
Like, I don't need sordid details of such a tragedy, but seriously, implying a baby was murdered is pretty flipping serious. Not something you just casually mention in conversation. How everybody is just glossing over that is beyond me.

You know...your ABSOLUTELY right! I don't know how I passed by that! When it comes to children and animals, usually I'm already baring arms!
Something like that deffinately shouldn't be just ignored!!!
I admit my ignorance.

He was sick, and the parents were asked to leave him overnight at the hospital, but my sister said "no". A week later she put him to bed and didn't check on him for 17 hours. By the time they found him, he had gone stiff. What happened within the few hours after he was noticed, is not certain (a.k.a. my sister changed the story way too much). All we know for sure is that he had a bean stuck in his trachea or air pipe that made one lung fill completely with puss and the other lung was too weak and caught pneumonia, thus causing him to die. There was a long custody battle for his surviving brother and sister, that lasted a year and a half. Today they reside with their parents.
