Ugh, pregnant women need to be more careful about posting Facebook chain statuses about parents who lose their baby.

Posted by Ender (aka Ender) Oct 13 '11, 07:50

A pregnant friend of mine posted the below status and I was getting really worried until about halfway through it when I realized she was just being stupid.

"A person that loses a partner is called a widow. A child who loses a parent is called an orphan. But there is no word to describe a parent who loses a child, because that loss is like no other. So will you put this as your status for just 1 hour?? I'm pretty sure I know the ones that will. Think of someone you know or love who's lost a baby or child, & take a few minutes to remember & honor their ...beautiful angels. posted for my friends and family who have lost their babies before they could meet...praying for you all."

More to the point, no one should post a chain status. Ever. -- nm - Kim Pine Oct 13, 07:51 4
