I didn’t know this either. A young girl near me, I think she was around 16, committed suicide last year and a family friend started a go fund me to raise 10 grand “for the family”. If it wasn’t for funeral costs then why did the family need 10 grand? I did think it strange at the time so didn’t donate. People never fail to disappoint meI never knew that about under 18s . I've donated in the past but won't do again
Yup. We lost my brother when he was 14 so I remember it quite well. Everyone gifts services, no one would charge for a child.to add, the mother is now crowdfunding for funeral costs.
I’ve lost a child, you don’t pay penny for anything, under 18 funerals are covered and any extras are usually covered by the funeral home themselves or a charity which they claim from. I refuse to ever donate since I found this out.
That’s the problem with the proliferance of crowd funding these days. People just see pound signs whenever a tragedy hits.it’s just odd to me that it even entered her mind to create a go fund me!
It’s just even weirder that the mother has done it. Like, that wouldn’t be one of the first things I did after my child had a violent death.That’s the problem with the proliferance of crowd funding these days. People just see pound signs whenever a tragedy hits.
Completely agreeim very very sorry for your loss.
I imagine they’ll want some kind of ‘extra’ for the funeral.
shame the same care and attention wasn’t given when buying ’a dog off a mate’.
I can't listen to that man; ....he....talks....very....slow....ly...Does anybody else listen to the “they walk among us” podcast? Just listened to this one on the story of Caroline Kayll …. Such a mad weird story !
I read she met her partner (who ended up murdering her) when she worked in a prison school and he was a prisoner - she was married and they began an affair. Then he murders her when he finds out she’s been seeing a 15 year old from the mainstream school she taught at. It sounds like she breached professional boundaries more than once.She was a wrongun... The trial was interesting as they had to avoid the elephant in the room that she was a teacher sleeping with her vulnerable 15yr old student. The bloke should have just shopped her to the police if he wanted her to suffer
I actually thought it was a computerised voice when I listened to one for the first timeI can't listen to that man; ....he....talks....very....slow....ly...
I've given it another try today but put the speed to x1.2 and it sounded much betterI actually thought it was a computerised voice when I listened to one for the first time
Thank you - I didn’t realise that. Wow.Even worse, it wasn't a mainstream school, it was for boys with "Social, Emotional and Mental Health".
Definitely over stepping boundaries.
I live in the area so read the live trials when it was happening (should be in The Chronicle)Even worse, it wasn't a mainstream school, it was for boys with "Social, Emotional and Mental Health".

Someone on their social media said that the basics are provided and they will need extra for a horse drawn carriage and a headstone.to add, the mother is now crowdfunding for funeral costs.

Crowdfunder, releasing balloons, they’ve even got a company (not sure how legit it is, A&E entertainment) to host the ‘celebration of life’. They’ve achieved a lot in 3 days.And of course they're releasing balloons
I listen but am so behind. What number episode was this please? XDoes anybody else listen to the “they walk among us” podcast? Just listened to this one on the story of Caroline Kayll …. Such a mad weird story !
Oh I'm not defending them in anyway at all.Something tells me they aren’t going to have to worry about getting time off “work”
If my child died in any circumstances I don’t think I would be able to speak let alone type on a phone to create a crowd funding page.
as someone else said, they could afford to buy a dog!
it would make you sick.
Their initial plan was to buy this dog to breed & make £2000 a pup from it. Now they have a crowd funding page…. But at the cost of A CHILD
I listen but am so behind. What number episode was this please? X
