TW MISCARRIAGE/STILLBORN
i just read one of the worst posts i’ve seen on the internet in a long ass time. it was some reddit post about an 18 year old boy who was relieved that his girlfriend had a stillborn (he says it was a miscarriage but at 24 weeks and after it’s a stillborn. his girlfriend was 25 weeks). the post itself isn’t the problem (well it is but the lesser problem), the problem is all the comments who a struggle to offer a crumb of compassion to this poor girl who was forced to deliver a dead baby who she loved. 90% of the comments were accusing her of being stupid to want a child at 18, accusing her of cheater and/or tampering with condoms or just blatantly saying she was never pregnant. HUH?!??!????!!!?? this poor girl is being ripped to shreds by absolute strangers and discussed on the internet by her boyfriend (who btw is making this post because he doesn’t know how to break up with her) while she is grieving a loss that many cannot even imagine. i hate the internet. i am crying real tears for this girl and i pray that she’s able to find some semblance of peace.
