You're right, and also for sympathy from the public. I do think these child death articles are extremely morbid and dark. They don't need to have their dead kids faces on the front page just to get the nation to sympathise with them, I am sad for their loss but they should just let them grieve in private without any newspapers invading their privacy and printing their kids faces on every newspaper in Britain.
There are billions of children in the world dying everyday and only a select few make it into the newspapers so yes, these types of articles are quite depressing and distasteful and need to be stopped.
