Good thing they recorded and posted this. Not meaning to be cynical but this is a pretty pivotal moment for this young boy’s life and just seems odd that nothing is too sacred to become content for strangers. I don’t normally pine for the days of yore but in this instance I feel lucky that my mom was just present for the moments instead of recording it for social media

This definitely was my thought too. Like…is nothing off the table now?

Yeah it’s crazy to me that a mom would even think to record this instead of just being excited and having a tender moment with her son

Just another symptom of the dystopian third world shithole that is the US. “Everything is content, even my family’s suffering “.

Ugh. I hated reading this so much because it’s true.
