Influencer parents: TW suicide

[newhourt]

I’ve just seen this post from Candice Braithwaite and I’m actually disgusted. What was she thinking? I’m really concerned for her child here and don’t think it’s a good idea plastering the details of a recent suicide attempt on the internet. I haven’t read the article it’s behind a paywall but I really don’t think parents should post about their children’s vulnerable moments when they can be easily identified.

I totally agree with you. Absolutely abhorrent.

Pick out coffins? No idea who she is but she has issues.

When I read the post this morning (but not her substack) I was a bit 'oh, okay, why are you writing this now ' especially as it's obviously recent and it's rather a raw update, plus the insta post seems like a bit of a teaser to make me pay to view, which was a bit off. I can understand her putting it behind a payroll.

Not quite sure if it's supposed to be cathartic, was posted with permission or whether it's a bit me, me, me.

Plus she's been posting 'normally' in the last few days/weeks. Highlighting her exciting life. Instafake I guess.

You're demonstrating your disgust in someone who makes money from attention by marketing them so they get more attention?

Yes I think we get the irony.
