MN - is it really appropriate to have pictures of dead children on a parenting site?

I appreciate that the issue is shocking, and that it sounds callous as many have no choice but to avoid images but to be confronted with it every time I scroll down a mumsnet thread is awful. And as some have pointed out, it could also be seen as disrespectful. I had already seen the image in another place, but it feels so jarring to have it appear alongside a jokey thread or similar.

Most of the posters here are mothers. Many will have children of a similar age. A lot of us are already doing things to help the refugee crisis. Please, rethink this.
