I can't imagine saying this about a child.

I used the same words that scottie did. My bad.

I didn't see where scottie said that, but then I haven't read the entire thread.

I would never call a child, deceased or alive, a "rotting corpse". There are some lines of decency you don't cross when it involves children.

Scottie was quoting previous posts where the child was referred to by that name.

Re: The latest on Jahi McMath

if she is truly "blossoming", then why not some pictures? Can her friends visit her?

I do not believe anything from this family anymore. They don't owe us anything, for sure, but once they get into the media and make it a media circus with their demands, then I think it is reasonable to show some proof that Jahi is "blossoming into a young teen".

Jane...if this family would have just taken the child out of the hospital and quietly moved on...folks would move on. But they keep their selves in the news with ridiculous stories and continue to collect money and other support on that dead child. They can take all the time they need to grieve but stop seeking publicity!

Thanks Jane.

I'm not going to go back in the thread. It's such a sad, tragic situation.

scottie brought it up here. No one on this thread stated that she was a rotting corpse until scottie brought it up. People used the term corpse, but scottie, once again, had to push her little buttons and no, she wasn't quoting anyone on this thread.

I know Cody but it just makes me ill to see them ridiculed. I'm not sure what I would do in their case, this entire situation has me unsure of what to believe.{#emotions_dlg.sad}

Re: The latest on Jahi McMath

that is unfair. Jane has every right to post here with her viewpoints. I totally disagree with her opinion on this matter, but I respect her opinion.

most people here are pretty civil and I think we can have some good discussions around this.
