Sexual Relationships 
Sexual Health 
My brother told me about this story he read in one of his email subscriptions, and then I went to Google it myself.
Back in November 2014 a couple's baby boy was sick, throwing up and having a high fever, until the boy's father Thomas decided what might is to cool him down. So he stripped down and stripped his little boy and they both sat in a cold shower together in an attempt to take the fever down. Although a noble effort, the boy was still very sick, getting worse, and having labored breathing, so they went to the hospital and found out their son had salmonella.
His wife Heather Whitten is a photographer and is the one who took the photo. She herself was moved by the beauty of it, of her husband caring so much like that. "I snapped a couple of pictures," she told TODAY Parents. "It was just beautiful. It was not surprising or anything out of the ordinary; it's how he has always been with the kids.... I document our family just how we are. I kind of see something and I just grab my camera."
She later posted the photo on Facebook which went viral, getting over 130,000 Likes and 30,000 re-shares. Many people were just as impacted by it, though others weren't, with some people criticizing it as perverted, and Facebook even deleted the photo twice before finally allowing it to stay. Though Heather decided to remove it herself once and for all later. "I wanted to take it down just because I thought it would get blown out of proportion. I thought the point was getting missed."
https://www.today.com/parents/photo-dad-comforting-his-son-shower-goes-viral-t92271
The couple has 4 kids, and her husband Thomas is in the Air Force, which may have been why he decided to try the shower with the boy if he was trained in survival.
People are so messed up...
Even I was touched by the photo when I saw it myself. I didn't see a single thing wrong or perverted about it. Such a situation with people's views tells us how we still are. No one would've thought it was predatory or perverse if the boy's mother was the one in the shower with the baby, and we know that. Or if it was some woman not even related to the baby. If a woman really was in the photo, it could've possibly turned out to be child pornography - that women commonly take payment to be in - yet none of us would ever suspect that or think it. But a guy has his clothes off with his own blood son in an effort to help him, and people think it's something sick.
These are the kind of things that make you feel like there's no hope for the world. Something great and beautiful is done, yet people twist it for evil in their minds. We complain and complain as a society about fathers this and fathers that, and talk about how maternal women are, yet this guy shows pure paternity and we still aren't happy.
All you can do is commend the good thing that was done, and shake your head at the world.
What Girls & Guys Said
49 53So many have been harmed by real predators, that the hype and urge for awareness has resulted in many seeing predators even where there aren't any.
Most don't know the difference anymore between innocent child photography and child porn, and just assume that any adult taking snapshots of a child that is less than fully clothed must automatically have the latter in mind.
Such is how predators do their worst damage: not so much by way of how they hurt their direct victims, as indirectly by how they poison the mind of society at large, till windmill-chasing makes it harder and harder to recognize a real threat in time.
"Most don't know the difference anymore between innocent child photography, and child porn" That isn't the issue. Women take photos like that all the time. It is only when a man does it the same thing that people have a problem with it. Society can't accept that men can be loving nurturing parents, and only want to see them as sexual predators that hurt the innocent.
@heavensgift2girls : Quite true. LBJ's legacy in a nutshell. Fathers were reframed in society's mind's eye as "not really essential," so many walked out, and never became true men. And with all the men who then forgot how to be nurturing or relevant, came a new notion in women that somehow, they are bears and not humans, where the man is little more than a sperm donor who would devour his own kids if they got in his way.
Some people look at a child and adult and immediately see victim and perpetrator. These people are invariably broken in some way and always seem surprised when you point out "Gee, were you abused as a child? Have you ever had a voluntary pleasurable sexual experience?" And then they start screaming at you that their trauma gives them near superhuman abilities to see crime which us non victims are apparently blind to.
They are to be pitied. But never ever actually listened to in a way that leads you to act on their warped view of the world.
People nowadays are paranoid...
@CosmicallyCombined "I am thoroughly convinced that you are not worth the excessive time" Yet, you keep answering me. Interesting. You keep repeating the same things over and over almost like you have nothing new to say, but you just have to say something because you like the attention I am giving you. Is that it? Do you like the attention I am giving you?
Stop obsessing over me because you will never be heard and taken seriously from me the way you you’d like to. I don’t respect your intellect, I don’t respect your maturity level, and I don’t respect your nasty mouth therefore conversing with you is pointless and unproductive. If you want to be taken seriously by me, then fix your mouth before you open it otherwise don’t expect me to put up with your negative, toxic, combative BS.
@CosmicallyCombined
"Stop obsessing over me"
I... I... I can't... This thread has been going for so long that now I fear the end of it will leave a void. I think I am slowly falling in love with you.
"therefore conversing with you is pointless and unproductive."
But you keep doing it. I am starting to feel like you are slowly falling in love with me too !
I am starting to actually enjoy talking with you. It's obvious how much my intellect has made an impression on you and hearing how much you find me intoxicating have really made me want to hear more from you.
Can't wait to hear from you again ! tata !
render.bitstrips.com/.../...-132720581_1-s4-v1.png
*without reading your dramatic, legnthy blabbering* If you can’t fix your nasty, dramatic mouth then I won’t give it the consideration you’d like to have from me. I have no duty or obligation to put up with your toxic cesspool of a presence so I won’t. Get over it and stop obsessing over me. Tag me again and maybe I’ll look at it a week or so from now…if I feel like it… :) …and you should stop publicly whining. You look like some needy, begging dog who keeps showing up on my doorstep no matter how much I close the door in your face. ✌
@CosmicallyCombined Haha. I just love it. "*without reading your dramatic, legnthy blabbering*" What if I gave you the secret to life in my last message? You should go read it ! Go read it now ! "…and you should stop publicly whining" Now I know you really didn't read it ! Well you really missed something... "I have no duty or obligation to put up with your toxic cesspool of a presence so I won’t" Bullshit, I established more than once that even though you say that, you don't really mean it. Every time you insult me the way you do it, it's like you are pinching my nipples while looking at me lustfully. Yeah, it hurts, but it hurts so good... I told you, I am slowly falling in love with you. I can't believe it will be a whole week before I get another answer from you. What will I do with my life in the meantime?
now you know how us females feel about the whole breast feeding problem we have. I agree this picture is not inappropriate in the least. Everything was covered that needed covered and showed love and family
@Zendrya Not the same thing. Women breast-feeding isn't seen as sexually predatory or pedophilic. It just makes some people uncomfortable, but it doesn't incite potential sexual crime in our minds.
But both this picture and breast feeding are being sexualized. Sexualized in different ways but same result.
@Zendrya How is breast feeding sexualized?
Do you not goon social media? Everyone is freaking out about breast feeding because they think it is inappropriate to show a boob to feed a kid because the boob is being sexualized
@Zendrya You can't take people on social media seriously. Their perception isn't making sense. An exposed boob to breast feed a baby is far from sexualization. It sounds like people with pervy thoughts who want to call it that.
the majority of North America and maybe other continents have this problem. It is actually huge. It isn't just people on Social Media https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UeaPQl8X4g www.sheknows.com/.../breastfeeding-mom-video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOEHRsRIodI these are just a few examples that show the problem.
My mother has actually been called a sick pervert while breastfeeding in public so they are similar, though I don't know why this needed to be brought up when talking about a different issue
@Minyamo9 I was hoping people would see the two make the comparison and hopefully change some opinions on breastfeeding. Seemed like a good opportunity
Some people just takes offense in anything and everything. Geez man... People like to point fingers and/or play the victim card when there really are no victims. I'm, child less, but not ignorant about child-raising and parenting. There are Bad parenting, but this isn't it. The kid is still too young and probably too sick to even question what it is that daddy have that's touching my leg? He's a couple of years before that time comes. I do think though, that daddy doesn't need to be completely naked to sit in the shower with his kid. He could've still worn his under wear and everything would have been fine. A wet underwear is not the end of the world. I'm not criticising him, if he feels comfortable naked then with a child that age and that ill, It's not a Bad thing. They could've just später themselves a lot less grief if he's sore underwear.
i think this whole thing has been blown out of proportion from every angle possible. all he was doing was trying to help his child.
people question everything. someone can't do something nice for someone else without there being judgement or a negative reaction to it. there is simply always one hater out there or many. there are actually nice people out there in the world. seriously there are.
i think what all this stems down to is we all think differently. my initial reaction was when i saw the mytake question and photo was what is all this about? read it and then understood what the picture was all about. sometimes we need to know the facts before we form any kind of opinion.
out of context it does looks pretty weird.
Nah I disagree. How about taking the kid to the hospital first thing instead of exposing himself and trying to give his son hypothermia? Or here's a novel idea:
acetaminophen. It's the active ingredient in pain relievers and doubles as a fever reducer. Modern medicine cures illness not cold showers. I don't think it's insensitive of me to find a child sitting on a naked mans lap disturbing, even if it is his own son that's still weird and weirder still is that it was his first course of action vs I don't know anything else that would actually have helped the kid.
I'm not going to go so far as to call the dad a pervert, because in his mind he might have actually thought that would work. I will however call the mother a weirdo for stopping to take a picture of them naked, then posting it on Facebook? Wtf? I must be missing this inspiring cuteness you think is there.
I don't think he was trying to give his son hypothermia; he was trying to get his fever down by cooling him off. Also, the kid wasn't taken directly to the hospital due to the family's lack of knowledge of the severity of the illness. Also, not everyone knows that acetominophen doubles as a fever reducer; most people see a pain reliever and will only take a pain reliever for what it is said to do: relieve pain. On top of that, they probably didn't have acetaminophen at hand at the time. A child sitting on a naked mans lap is only disturbing to you because society has taught us that men can't care for their children like women can, which is just one of the very discriminatory ideology too prevalent in our society. Additionally, the fact that it's his own son should make less weird (in fact diminish it to 0 weirdness) because he helped create him from his own genes. The mom posted the picture because she's a photographer, an artist with an eye for beauty and a passion to capture it.
@QuarterNote nope, it's still weird. I get that maybe for some families in some cultures this is fine and it might not have such a gut reaction with me if they had just done it in private and left it at that, but taking a picture of them naked and posting it on social media is not "art" michealangelos murals are art, composed music is art, taking a picture of naked people is not art. It has nothing to do with society conditioning me, I don't give care what the rest of society thinks, I think it's weird whether it's naked child and dad or naked child and mother. I can think of about a hundred more sensible ways to deal with that situation and I'm not even a parent.
You can think of so many other ways to handle the situation... Because you aren't IN the situation. Regarding art... I want you to look up an artist for me, I can't link you to her, because her stuff is not friendly to this site, but i want you to look up Sally Mann. Have a look at her stuff. I want you to identify whether or not the fact that most of her works are of her own kids, gives you the same gut reaction this picture did. And let me know. I'm not putting you down, or trying to school you or whatever, it simply irks me when people try to define what art is, when knowing very little about what they're saying. So please answer so I can make my point. You don't have to agree with me, just, humour me.
these were exactly my thoughts
I've seen people claim that photo of some naked person in some pose with all sexual stuff covered by the pose is somehow "artistic", but I haven't really heard anyone argue that it's not. Also, we here use ibuprofen. But you're most likely not a doctor, and neither am I. :p P. S. Cold bath works against high fevers like 39+ celsius
"I will however call the mother a weirdo for stopping to take a picture of them naked, then posting it on Facebook? " That to me is much more disturbing.
@Bluemax posting it to Facebook is the weird thing here, not that they were in the damn shower lol
@Mesonfielde Yep
@Bluemax Agreed posting it to Facebook was weird not the guy showering with the child. If a child does have a dangerously high temperature then it should be taken to hospital. I think it was right to try a lower the sick childs temperature but a cold shower seems extreme.
Lol. He could have worn a bathing suit, right?
@Spermdumster666 Depends on how cold, really.
Agreed! I wouldn’t say he’s a pervert but I’m not sure why his first instinct was to strip and get naked with his child in the shower so that they could bond. Cuddling with him on the couch or in his bed while they’re both clothed I get, but getting naked and holding him in the shower just seems really bizarre to me. I can’t even imagine being a child and feeling sick so my dad gets naked and has me sit on his lap in the shower. It would feel like a violation of personal privacy, not some cute loving moment. I guess I’m missing the inspirational cuteness as well.
@Mesonfielde I guess the mother failed to consider that regardless of her idea of art, some sick, disturbed pedophile will see that picture and get an erection. Not everything is meant to be put on display and shared with the world wide web of strangers.
@CosmicallyCombined He took his son to the shower to reduce his fever, not to bond as you say. Did you even read the story? Why do you care about giving pedophiles an erection? What if we got an erection by watching girls in a skirt. Would you stop wearing a skirt just so we don't get one? You are aware that the reason why kiddie porn is outlawed is not because it gives pedophiles an erection, but because it creates a demand for abusers to create content right?
remember we live in a land of obamacare. there's many reasons for not running into the emergency room. the most common one being money.
@JucyBrain First of all, please try to figure out how to reply without making assumptions left and right and firing questions at me as if you are a lawyer and I’m on the stand in a court. I have every right to my own, personal OPINION regardless of how you feel or what you think and I do not have to compromise it to mirror yours. At nearly 40 years of age, by now you should be able to accept that some people simply are not going to agree with you and that’s okay. Regardless of why he chose to strip and sit his naked son on his lap next to his bare penis, that being his first course of action is bizarre. There are various other ways to address a fever besides getting naked with your child in the shower. Secondly, don’t make assumptions and tell me how I feel while you are asking me question as a complete stranger. I never said that I care oh so much about pedophiles getting an erection.
@JuicyBrain (Cont.) It’s the fact that this picture is EXPLOITATIVE and that was highly irresponsible on the mother’s part. I’m pretty sure her son wouldn’t appreciate growing up and realizing his mother created a situation where he could be some pervert’s fap material. Your attempt at comparing “watching a girl’s skirt” and getting an erection is mediocre, irrelevant, and not even the same situation. Your last sentence appears to be you desperately, pathetically trying to reach for whatever you can to be argumentative and present a mediocre debate. Not your strong point, love.
@JuicyBrain many mothers would take an infant into the shower to clean I dont see any difference. As for Peados they dont need stuff like this to get a stiffy they hang out outside schools, go to child beauty contests, school sport events,. Also they get jobs and volunteer as teachers, scout masters and anything else you can think of to give the access to children. Not just men either there has been a real rise in female kiddy fiddlers.
@CosmicallyCombined "Your attempt at comparing “watching a girl’s skirt” and getting an erection is mediocre, irrelevant, and not even the same situation." It's relevant when you understand it. Of course, if you choose not to because it suits you, then you can avoid having to answer to it. Let me explain like you were 5. This way, if you don't get it, you'll look stupid. You shouldn't change who you are or what you do to please or displease others. If you want to post a picture of your kid, you don't stop yourself from doing it just because it might please or displease some people. You just do it because you want to do it. Is my example a little clearer to you now? "Your last sentence appears to be you desperately, pathetically trying to reach for whatever you can to be argumentative and present a mediocre debate." Hyperbolic much? I simply explained to you some very simple things because it looked like you didn't grasp it.
@CosmicallyCombined If you didn't care about giving pedos an erection, then why did you even mention it? You are entitled to your opinion just as much as I am entitled to mine. You don't want people commenting on it? Then keep it to yourself. You don't like it? I don't care.
@JuicyBrain No, sweetheart. I understand your mediocre, failed attempt at a comparison just fine. A woman wearing a skirt and a man getting an erection from it is different from a mother, who is supposed to protect her child, putting an exploitative image of her child that can blatantly be considered as sexual on the internet for any random, twisted pervert to download. You don’t need to explain it as if I was five because even a five year old could see that someone nearly 8 times as old as them failed to construct an intelligent, logical, rational correlation that is relevant and makes sense. Your unintelligent, weak example was already a very clear, very ineffective failure of true intellect. Honey, your whining, bitching, and moaning at me while you desperately try to get me to agree with your very mediocre, immature thinking is useless. I do not respect your intellect and your amateur attempt at a debate is powerless and slightly comical. There's nothing fruitful to grasp, love.
Honey, why do you seem to think you are entitled to hear my inner thoughts and all the insight I have on this collective topic with your condescending, combative, nasty tone? I never said you weren’t entitled to your opinion, sweetheart. Was I the one who went up to you dramatically giving you a list of questions and demanding answers as to why you have your personal opinion? No, sweetie, I didn’t initiate an interest in your thoughts. YOU were the one who came at me moaning and borderline bitching about my view that you disagree with. You don’t tell me what to do, love. I will express my opinion whether entitled individuals like you obsessively comment, overanalyze, and misinterpret it or not. Learn some social skills before you actually attempt to discuss someone’s opinion with those poor quality social skills.
@CosmicallyCombined Get off your high horse lady. You want to pass as an intellectual but all you've been doing is stringing words you seem to think looks good while delivering ad hominem (see I can do it too) attacks. You haven't even delivered a single argument yet, all you have done is to deny mine in a fruity language.
@JuicyBrain dude chillax its just the internet and people are allowed to have differing opinions save condescending rants lmao
@JuicyBrain I’m not on a high horse, sweetie but even if I was, I would stay on it as long as I please because you don’t tell me what to do and I do not take orders from you. My firm opinion is not going to change and if it were, it wouldn’t be due to an intellect as mediocre, premature, and speculative as yours, love. Here’s the thing, honey: If I do not feel you are worth a legitimate, thorough, worthwhile argument then you will not get one. I don’t care if you’re used to frolicking around here with some entitled, demanding attitude that anyone you choose to open your mouth to must give you an argument despite how dramatic and combative you are. It simply doesn’t work that way with me, love. Deny me of respect and I will deny you of a certain level of thought and effort.
@Spermdumster666 You tell that to ME? You call ME condescending? Have you read her?
@JuicyBrain
https://youtu.be/GtkST5-ZFHw
Its not your fault ;)
@CosmicallyCombined "I’m not on a high horse" Lol yes you are, I don't remember ever having seen someone on a horse as high as yours honey. Must be hard to breathe up there. "it wouldn’t be due to an intellect as mediocre, premature, and speculative as yours, love." I heard you the first ten times dear. You can stop spitting on my intellect, it's fine. It almost looks like you are compensating for something. "I do not feel you are worth a legitimate, thorough, worthwhile argument" How convenient... You never had any arguments anyway, only insults of which you are already running low. "Deny me of respect and I will deny you of a certain level of thought and effort. " Of course, I understand. When a resource is that scarce, you can't just give indescriminately! I am sorry. I won't rob your highness of any more of her precious time.
@JuicyBrain Honey, you just wasted all of that energy and effort. Because you have approached me with a combative, dramatic, argumentative tone, you no longer get the privilege to be heard by me. Until you can dig deep and figure out how to behave like a grown man who has been around for nearly four decades, I am not going to waste my time reading your lengthy, obsessive posts towards me because you have convinced me that you are a toxic presence full of negative vibes who is barely worth my attention. :) I’ll read up to 20 words if you want to try again. ;)
My apologizes for the excessive, dramatic, combative replies all over your post. Some men just can’t get it together and conduct themselves like someone who was raised right.
@CosmicallyCombined I don't see how I could change your mind in 20 words. You are like the rock of Gibraltar. You won't budge and your speech sounds majestic, but it's just as dumb as any other rock. Did I trick you in reading more than 20 words? Since you complained about my replies being too lengthy, I kept it short and bite sized for you this time. I love how you insist on my age and intellect. I bet you are into older men who wears hat and smoke pipes.
@JuicyBrain Honestly, love, you are delusional if you think you have the communication skills, social skills, and intellect to change my mind. You don’t even know how to speak to me which is precisely why you will receive the utmost minimal thought from me. I don’t care what other random strangers online have made you think: you don’t get to approach me with pure condescension, disrespect, and negative toxicity yet get to receive a certain amount of effort, energy, and thought from me. I’m not your poor mother, your therapist, your friend, or anyone who’s obligated to put up with your nasty ass, dramatic mouth or cater to your overemotional disposition so I simply won’t. You can sit there and continue to waste your own effort, energy, and time on me while not receiving the same care in return until you can learn how to speak like a grown man.
@BaileyisDarcy I have no doubt that "artsy" people think she an artist, but for me art is something that requires an exceptional amount of skill. Taking a picture and calling it art is just capturing a nice image. Am I an artist if I take my phone and snap pics of the arorea borealis? Just because it's pretty? No, because I used a computer to capture the image and required no skill beyond a push of a button. If Someone could paint an original image of the arorea borealis then that would be impressive to me. Recreatiing an image from their own imagination I get what you mean, hindsights 20/20 for sure, but that's not really an excuse in my eyes.
@CosmicallyCombined "Honestly, love, you are delusional if you think you have the communication skills, social skills, and intellect to change my mind." Nobody can. The more intelligent your debaters are, the less likely you are to budge. 🙉 That's why you have planted your heels in the ground so hard with me. "or anyone who’s obligated to put up with your nasty ass, dramatic mouth or cater to your overemotional disposition so I simply won’t. " And yet you did and still does. I think there is a little something inside you that likes it. You have been acting like you are such a big adult all along. Like my 4yo niece when she puts on her mother's heels. You like telling me how small you think I am compared to you. You feel compelled... Another reason you keep doing it is that you never gave any arguments whatsoever. You knly gave a vapid, empty opinion with nothing to back it up which is strange given you have berated me on my intellect all along.
@CosmicallyCombined Now the only way left for you to win the argument is by having the last word which I am not giving you. That's why you keep replying all the time even if you say I am not worth it. Well honey, I have off today and if I have to choose between mowing the lawn or showing you how wrong you are, the choice is easy. Talk to you soon...
@JuicyBrain Not reading all of that. You talk too much and I am thoroughly convinced that you are not worth the excessive time, mental effort, and thought it would take to read all of that and compose a response. Change your vibe and maybe I’ll change my mind. : ) Otherwise, stop wasting your time obsessing over me because if you cannot show respect and insist on being a combative, dramatic mess then you don’t get my cooperation.
@CosmicallyCombined how does some random guy on the other side of the planet getting an erection cause them harm?
@Mesonfielde It may not cause any harm at all but kids do get stalked and kidnapped so it really doesn’t help that she plastered her name and her child’s face along with the picture. If someone was depraved enough, they could probably do something with that info. It’s moreso the principal. A mother shouldn’t be so busy trying to get likes on social media that she posts an exploitative picture of her naked child online where anyone can have access to it.
Essentially what you're saying then, is that photography is not art? Are you really saying that? ... I'm not even going to bother. In fact, you gave me a great idea for a mytake, so Imma do that instead.
Cooling a child down when it has fever really isn't an uncommon procedure and something plenty of doctors recommend as well (though usually just using cold, wet towels). Additionally you might believe it or not, the majority of people don't have a medical education and thus do what they think is the basic and a reasonable thing. And a cold shower to cool down someones fever is a very reasonable idea when it is a normal fever and not bacterial caused like it is in this case. And to top it off: You know that doctors prefer to not give medical drugs to such young children, because the risk for side-effects is strongly increased? So to sum it up: You are talking out of your ass about soemthing that you have no clue about.
@FakeName123 She's just 17. At that age people think they are privy to everything they know.
@FakeName123 SHe's seventeen and stupid. 17 year old's think they are privy to information everyone already knows because they don't have to apply their knowledge to anything practical. They just need spit random facts. You remember, you were there.
It is beautiful :) Great photo too
I read somewhere that the reason they put him in the shower was because he had horrible diarrhea and was pooping and puking nonstop. The shower seemed like the best option, since all the liquids could just run down the drain. His dad probably got in with him to comfort him. I'm sure it was pretty traumatizing for the poor little guy.
It's quite sweet. How is that perverted? People don't have anything better to do, so they love blowing things out of proportion.
I'm telling you, it's this fucked up society. Any little "unnatural" photo or something "racy" is considered "pedo"... I fucking hate this generation or century. I think this was beautiful.
Totally agree.
People these days have twisted ways of seeing things. They drag a simple, sweet picture into something really nasty. Nothing nasty or perverted with the picture it's their minds that are nasty!
Im sure it's completely innocent and they look like a great family, a great dad too. It's just a little unnecessary and that's probably why it gets some negative feedback
At least he wasn't arrested by fbi
Because you have to be smart to work for the fbi.
No cos people are fucken paranoid
There is nothing shameful about a father being a father. The fact that it was perceived as perverted just bears witness to how screwed up our society's notion of fatherhood truly is. People do not think that men can be fathers or that it is okay for them to be, yet then they ironically complain about deadbeat fathers who do nothing.
I wonder if it was the Misandrists that called this father a "pervert". Mothers always post similar pictures, yet because of double standards fathers can't. This is very sad.
A key detail is left out that the child had severe diarrhea. That's why the father was in the shower 1 to cool his fever and 2 to wash the feces away. I would of probably done the same because even keeping underwater on its unsanitary to have cloths covered in human waste on.
Also a good point.
My boyfriend says the biggest issue he has with this is the parents waited so long to take the kid to the hospital. He says that high of a fever in a child should have been a doctor/er vist asap
@LilWeezey understoond but maybe that was the only thing available or the solution the doctor gave them. Too many circumstantial stuff. You and I are neither right or wrong.
That's a beautiful photo, it just shows the viewer the bond between father and son.
I can understand Facebook not wanting that type of pic on their website, but Facebook was FORCED to act that way because of the outrage.
Facebook isn't to blame in my opinion, any business has to respond to their target demographic.
-----
I personally find the photo touching, a father comforting his son in sickness.
Yet the photo was well-recieved by a lot of people on Facebook or it wouldn't have gotten all the Likes and re-shares that it did.
Unfortunately the few outweighs the many; look at the outrage over businesses not wanting to build a separate "gender neutral" bathroom!
