My statement was more along the lines of a general comment on how I see these things, not specifically commenting on this individual situation. General statement + lack of clarity = me being an ass.

IRL, I hear people praising parents all the time for doing what they're supposed to do: spending time with their kids, taking proper care of them, etc.

If you want to know why people think she is a great mother, look at the kid's father. He took the easy way out and walked away from the family when he couldn't handle it. She stayed by the baby's side and cared for him for the last 2 years until he died in her arms. So hell yeah, I think she is a great mother, just like any other that cares for a child with a devastating disease. And yes, I think a mother like that is probably a better mom than me, because I would lose my shiit if I had to deal with that.
