Was thinking the same thing, she’s there picking out funeral songs for her daughter who was still alive at the time and thought o wait I’ll record this process now for future content ?!?! The mind bloody boggles with her at this stage, she is in need of serious mental help

You can't pick and choose like that. Read any thread here, and I'm sure there are posts that you won't agree with. That's Tattle, that's the joys of being in the public eye, willingly. These aren't regular people trying to go about their daily lives under the radar. Every thread here is about a page with over 10k followers that chooses to share personal information with their followers, 145 thousand followers in this case.
Sharing personal moments and selling your family's privacy, is freely done in return for sponsored posts and freebies.
Where is the compassion, humanity & empathy for FR from her own family?
Or for Saoirse? Did she consent to images of her dead body and her funeral procession being shared to 145k+ people online, only to be shared by multiples of that figure?
No one here has denied how tough of a time they're naturally going through. No one here thinks it's normal to not only think about taking a picture of a coffee cup at your child's grave, but actually do it, upload it to Instagram and tag the café.
Two things can be true at once.
The recording of the coffin in the hearse is in bad taste. I can understand wanting as many videos of Saoirse alive as possible so they have them to watch over. But those personal moments near the end should be kept private.
I wonder what Farah Rose will think in 10 or 15 years time that recordings of her at her sisters grave and last selfies etc were shown to 130k plus people. Het privacy needs to be respected.

The latest story about the dates of S&FR being conceived.
That’s too much.

I agree, people are addicted to that type of thing.... after my child died the amount of people who added me on SM was huge.
People in my village who id known for years, but not friends, suddenly wanted to be my friend.... and even more weird, the amount of new requests my child got, after passing
The "Nation's Child" balloon was a bit strange. And that is coming from someone that was ridiculed on here by a couple of posters last week for defending them.
It would be strange way for the family to refer to their own child. I've never really heard her referred to the "Nation's Child" before she died. Has anyone else?
I'm thinking maybe someone else got it for them? If I were her mother I would be thinking "she is my daughter, not the nation's child" but maybe that is just me.

Imagine a preschooler asking for a group hug from her parents and mom saying wait lets do a reel even the poor dog doesn't know what she should be doing weather to jump up or not.
I was a child in a family that lost a child following a long illness and tbh never felt enough as the grief of a parent is so huge, and there is a part missing forever, I used to think it might have been better if it had been me she wouldn't be so sad, obviously I understand it now as an adult with my own kids and when I told my mother she said it didn't matter she loved us all and wanted us all with her but it does leave its mark.
I do totally get they are all in bits and trying to find a way through the grief but that little girl needs unconditional love she isn't an actress or child model she is little more than a toddler at home in her own house missing her big sister, Just let her be to eat her breakfast watch tv or hop into bed without being recorded.

I don’t think she should have shown the grave I really think that bit is private

I can't begin to imagine all that Saoirse went through and all that they went through with her. It's a heartbreak that I can only imagine, never heals. She needs to put away her phone now though, imo.
If she wants to share her own thoughts and feelings, well maybe that's a way to cope. All of those final things are really private and should be kept that way though. I find it hard to understand how anyone would think of recording the hearse, in that moment.
And the little girl should definitely not be shown. She would have no understanding whatsoever of the fact that she is on view to thousands of people.

I wonder how her Dad feels about all this. He’s always seemed uncomfortable on camera. Imagine going to have some quiet moments at your daughters graveside & finding a load of total strangers there acting like they know you just because they’ve seen you on your wife’s Instagram. I’d be so freaked out if they tried to interact with Farrah Rose. Her grief has an audience, it should never have been allowed.

The latest stories. She is using Instagram as a diary to heaven. Some things people don't need to know.
an intervention a month after loosing a child would be the wrong step. I had a ring side seat when a friend lost a child tragically. It was horrific and the poor mum actually tried to take her own life within the first year. All we could do was ride the wave with her and keep her safe. Thankfully she learned to live with the grief. I hope Saoirses mum starts to tone it down but I've put her on mute as it is a tough watch but I dont think I'm in a position to say whats right or wrong when my own kids are safe and with me.
I don't think there is any harm in local events name checking or remembering lost kids. Our school did it all the way along at fhc, grads and communions. I think it gave the message for grieving classmates that is was normal to talk and remember their friend and I know the mum got comfort from it and did continue to attend those big days. Eventually she sponsored an exciting event in her little mans memory so its more focused now, The charity or fund is also a great way but way too soon for this family.

RIP Saoirse.
I find it very odd that the death notice refers to a half sibling. I’ve never met half a person. It’s such a horrible term to use, and considering one of the people of who was involved in that notice is her father, it seems very cold.
Both girls have lost a sister, and it seems very cruel to reference her as an “also ran”. It doesn’t take from Saoirse’s connection to Farah to call them both sisters. It reminds me of when people refer to “adopted child” as if it makes a difference.

And I don't mean to sound harsh, but she needs to recognise that little girl is a separate person, entitled to her own identity.
The oversharing and exploitation of what should be private moments is horrendous. On top of that, she probably barely understands what has happened, and she definitely has no concept of how her privacy is being violated.
So many children are going to have longterm consequences from being used in this way, for the sake of content. It's actually very sad and frightening to think about.

I'd say that comment was in reference to the "Nation's child" title given to Saoirse by her Mam. It may sound harsh, but she wasn't the nation's child, and it'll sound even harsher, but most of the country probably haven't even thought of her since the funeral. That's the sad reality, she obviously meant the world to her family, but she was their child, not the nation's.

I don't judge her for the way she's grieving but I really wish she would leave the little one off line, she can't consent to herself being filmed at her sisters grave , it's not right .
