It’s okay to be angry about it still. I can sense it. I understand your point but it’s still comparing. You saying losing a young child rather than an older child. Everyone is going to grieve differently and process differently. See things differently and that’s okay. You might think you losing your 7yr old is more traumatic than me losing my baby at birth. That’s your opinion and view. I didn’t get time with my child. I don’t compare though. And I don’t get offended because no one knows what it feels like to lose a child unless you’ve actually lost a child. The less I consume myself with the ignorance of others, the more peace I have.

Pain is pain. Comparing helps nobody.

💯 Everyone’s grief is valid. Like, of course I miss my grandma. But I would NEVER EVER EVER EVER IN A MILLION YEARS compare that to the grief of losing a child. I don’t know that pain. And I would never say “I understand”.

I think many people don’t understand that in certain losses you not only lose the life/person but you lose experiences as well and those lost experiences are also a death - a death of what would that have been like or I was looking forward to that. It is all lost but some people get more experiences. Yes of course they would want MORE but there are some people who didn’t get any and that adds another level to the grief

This is true. Every loss is unique and I know people try to relate by bringing up their own losses. However, it’s not the pain Olympics. I don’t think those people are consciously comparing. I’m so sorry for your loss

I always say no grief journey is the same because we are all different humans.i dont even compare someone else's journey who has lost a child to mine because we all grieve differently

I feel like sometimes people want so badly to relate that they do harm in the process and that harm is real even if unintentional or well intended. thank you for putting words to that.

yes. 1000%. over-relating diminishes our losses bc you are not witnessing someones true pain, if you are scanning for your own in their story. its okay not to relate. you can still care.

I don’t expect anyone to say anything. Just a hug is all I need. Yes, I lost my 28 year old Son. We lose children at different ages and different ways never the less the pain is the same. A Mother Losing their child. Agreed It’s different for each Mother !
