Runs House

This is totally random, but i read about
this on the abortion forum and i knew the
baby died, but now im watching runs house
and it's the most horrible thing, they
knew that the baby had problems, i dont
remember what but they knew and they didnt
tell anyone, and she died at birth and the
boys came in and said 'was it a boy or a
girl' and they were all excited and the
mom was like "it's a girl, it was a girl"
and the looks on their faces were so
horrible 
and they were like "she.. she died?" and
it was just really sad. i think it's
horrible that they broke the news to the
kids on camera like that. and i started
crying, the looks on their faces were so
sad, sigh.
i don't know why i made a thread about
this, because it's about a baby i guess,
it's just sad. it makes me mad that they
did it on camera.

I never watched the show. But I remember
hearing in the news that they weren't
going to do another season because of
their loss. I assumed it was a
miscarriage. How do you not prepare your
children for news like that? Maybe, they
didn't know it was a life threatening
condition and that she would just have
problems. What a horrible experience to
have, let alone in front of america.

I think they were hoping for a miracle, to
be honest. They knew the baby would be
born with serious health problems, but
they were probably hoping that she would
pull through. Unfortunately she didn't.
It's extremely sad. I don't know how I
would begin to deal with something like
that.

No it's not fiction.
I don't like the way they're trying to
bypass the grieving process.. that's
terrible. "We don't look back".. it's like
they don't even wanna remember the
daughter they created.

i haven't seen it but i definitely think
they should've prepared the other kids for
potential bad news.

I think what they did was brave. They're
trying to show people that *everyone*
grieves. and you *can* pull through it.
Of course, people are going to take it
differently. You must have not watched the
whole episode. I saw them on
2-3 occasions pray to the .lord and bless
.victoria .ann(the baby) for coming to
them. Even if it was briefly.
What did you expect them to terminate the
baby because she had a problem??? THey
have the funds to care for a
mentally/physically retarded child and
were willing.
They now plan on adopting.

nobody implied they should have
terminated. we're all saying they should
have prepared the other children for what
might happen (and did). they knew the baby
had a good chance of not making it but
they didn't tell anyone that. those little
boys (i'm assuming, i don't know the show
or the family) had no idea there might be
a problem and had to go through the shock
of finding out their new baby sister had
died on camera.
i also don't like the way they're acting
like "grieve and get over it". not
everyone grieves the same and it's a
really personal thing and you need to take
as much time as you need.
maybe i read it the wrong way, but that's
how i took it.

i never said they should have terminated
the pregnancy, thanks, i don't agree with
abortion. the whole topic is about them
telling the boys on camera instead
of preparing them first. I do think it's
brave that they kept on with the
pregnancy, but I think they should have
told the kids off camera instead of
breaking the news to them in front of
america, it was awful.

Wow ladies, I wasn't refering to what yall

What I put in bold from .zan's post is
what I don't agree with.

It shows that hey losing a child happens
to the rich and famouse and not just to
us...It is hard to loos a child and you
grieve in your own way that may have been
the only way they know how so thery dont
just fall apart and never recover there
have been those days for me but i pray
everyday that my little boy is up there
and is happy. and I pray to god everynight
that he will bless me with another
child...and i am thankful that you guys
are here for me for when i do start to
fall you guys are there to catch me.

I really didn't think anyone would jump
down my throat for having an opinion.
But this part of the story just made me
think "what the heck??".. I admit I
*didn't* see the programme, so I'm just
going by what it says on that link..
"Rev. Run: diggy might have taken it the
hardest, but I didn't let him. I had him
out on the skateboard the first day.
Basically we teach our kids thankfulness.
We all cry, but not a long period of it.
We don't have pictures [of victoria anne].
We don't look back. We don't want the
walls of our house to start crying, and
everything to just crumble around us."
The "I didn't let him" part seems a lil
harsh. Let the poor bugger grieve.
It's just the way he worded it that bugs
me.. but again, I didn't see it so I'm
just giving an opinion based on how that
all sounds in my head.
And no, I wouldn't have expected such
devout christians to terminate a
pregnancy.. personally I think I would
have done, but that thought never crossed
my mind while I was reading it.

i agree with that 100%. i dont agree with
them at all. its unhealthy to not greive.
if you just bottle all those emotions up
like that and not look back, it can result
in some messed up emotional problems.

I was completely shocked that they showed
that on tv. Unforunately I did see that. I
don't watch the show, but I happened to
catch this particular episode. I thought
it was terrible to put their kids through
that, especially those young boys....they
had no clue their baby sister might not
make it. When kids are that young, they
don't know about miscarriages and
stillbirths...I really disagree with how
they "handled it". To me, it was very cold
hearted and seemed as if it was no big
deal. 
And it's not like they showed the episode
just one time....I've seen it on 2 times
so far.
