Bad day, and upsetting email from "Parenting"

Gem17 · March 2011

Did anyone else get the email from Parenting called "Totally Weird Baby Products?" I was appalled by the "fetus in a jar of blood necklace". Yes, I just said that. I'm scrolling through all of these moderately useless products when I come to that. It's actually an Etsy site that makes them. Disgusting! I commented on the article to Parenting, and I will probably email as well. I like to look at those for fun, and they totally set me back to my loss. Thanks, douche bags! I can't even get into the sickos that would make that product. Maybe oversensitive today because of work, but WTF Parenting!!!???!!!

I have to agree with you. WTF? Why would anyone want to wear that?

That's horrible and who in their right mind would make something like that?!?!

Really?!? Does it say anything about why something like that was designed? In some twisted way is it supposed to possibly be a comfort/rememberance type jewelry?

The pics were of people with tattoos and sort of goth looking. NOT that I am judging people with tattoos or that are goth, just stating facts.

So probably not the grieving, remembering a lost baby type. Ugg...that really sucks that Parenting would think that product is ok to sell.

I think it's more sick than remembrance. I didn't even want to post the pic here. It was upsetting, and I'm not a super sensitive person.

Are you effing serious?? That's sick. They need to know that's not ok to support. This made me vomit a little in my mouth. I'm sorry you had to see that

I knew you guys would feel the same. I'm sorry I had to put that image in your minds as well. I just emailed them a nice, detailed letter of how disgusted I was.

I didn't get the email, or see the product, but it sounds offensive. I wouldn't think of wearing it, loss or not. For what it's worth, I do have a tattoo...but am not goth in the least.

what! who would make/wear that?

Erin RN · March 2011

Thats ridiculous!! Who would make or actually wear that?!?!?!

That's just plain sick! I really hope they receive a lot of letters from disgusted parents on this. Apparently they need to check into things more carefully before they publish them!
