I'm probably being horribly insensitive but...(warning death mentioned)

I just saw something disturbing on Facebook since a friend posted to something that had lots of replies. Guy in his 30s dies, leaves behind three young kids, very sad story. His ex wife (and mother of his kids) posts a video on facebook including pictures of the kids crying at the guys open casket. I think this is so beyond fucked up to publicly post. I know that people have the right to grieve however they want..but this is really fucked up...right?

    Oh, man, that's really disturbing. Reading this gave me a visual of it and I feel sad even though I don't know the kids.

    I think it's pretty fucked up to take a video if any kind at a funeral. Posting it to FB just adds to the fucked up-ness.

    If it makes you feel any sort of better, the kids aren't preschool age young...I'd say between 9-14. But still...yeah I was judging and I kind of felt like an insensitive ass for doing so. I guess I'm not that far off base.

    why do people treat Facebook like a diary??

    some things in your life are allowed to be private. like these kids grieving over the loss of their father.
     
    agree it's wrong. these shouldn't be posted.

    edit- posted before done..again!

    I hope someone flags it. Seriously.

    Are flags anonymous? (Although its a moot point since I don't know the woman).

    That is horrible and beyond insensitive.  I hate when people lose all their common sense when it comes to social media.

    I don't understand why she would post something like that. What was the point? The children's heartbreak is a picture I would try to push far far away from my thoughts. Sure, people grieve in different ways, but I don't see the point of putting out there for the public to see.

    Ugh. People need to learn to think before they hit the post button.

    Grossly inappropriate.  Did nobody who commented on it say anything about it being wrong in some way?

    Nope, just lots of "sorry for your loss" and 20ish likes. Wtf.
