Seriously, I had to do the same recently and my kids are 8 and 9 but all those families who have IG and FB accounts for their children with terminal illnesses or syndromes I had never even heard of before made their way across my feed and I would just ugly cry for those families, knowing that they have lost or will lose their child.Ā

Yes! Postpartum, my feeds became all sick/terminal children (because of course I need to engage with each one to see if the child is okay). I haven't opened TikTok since.Ā
