Then I logged in tonight and someone had shared another persons image of their still birth baby...

So my question is for the first one do you think fb was in the right to reply like that?

I would certainly a say a photo like that would cause offence and distress to others..

And the person that posted the image of the still birth baby, should things like that really be posted on fb or any other social media sites?

I know people deal with deaths in different ways but I am at a loss to understand why anyone would post an image like that online, stuff like that should be kept personal IMO not shared around the internet, I think fb should be putting a stop to things like this.

Opinions?

I agree Josy,some of the things posted are sickening ,I often had animal cruelty stuff sent me and it was awful and Yes FB should take down distressfull images,I cant believe they let the one of the dead child through ,who are these bloody people? as for the baby I personally wouldn't,especially on a social network,maybe on a memorial site,but even then,I wouldn't.
