Ummm, perhaps Santa, after witnessing all the paraphernalia attached being removed, decided that it was best to get the picture, and return the child. Sounds like mom was being "self"-ish.

Bass Pro Shops said in statement Monday "this is not something we feel great about."
According to the organization, Santa Claus, his elves and store employees taking part in the free picture promotion go through sensitivity training before each holiday season. |

I can kinda see where the Mom is coming from. We just had our first child this year, and while I am fairly ambivalent about it my wife really wanted a picture of my son sitting on Santa's lap. I guess for this mother she had the perfect picture in her mind of her child that will probably die soon sitting on Santa's lap, and when it didn't happen exactly how she planned she got upset. That being said, the picture of Santa and the child looks great, and I hope after the child is gone it remains a positive memory for her.

This strikes me as the mother wanting to gain attention for a rare disorder. As she wants the money donated to the foundation for mitochondrial disorders....all I saw was a picture of a kid with Santa.

It seems as though they felt discriminated against because Santa decided to stand instead of sit down and have the baby in his lap.

Looking to be offended.
So... the breathing machine was removed. " Mitochondrial encephalomyopathies also may cause brain abnormalities that alter the brain's control over breathing" The child was removed from assisted breathing! I could see where Santa was concerned about how long the child was OK without the breathing machine. It would be a much bigger story if Santa sat down with the child for the photo and the child became unresponsive! That would be a hell of a headline!!! |

The mother took advantage of a free service, took her child off a breathing machine, handed him to a stranger and then got pissed off that Santa was uncomfortable holding a slowly dying child. It is a sad situation that the child is in but she is just a sad miserable person by her own making.

If you cannot afford said cost, you stiffen your upper lip, and make do with what you have. Not hating on family in general, just put yourself in place of Santa, you're handed a very ill, small, fragile child, who just got detached from a machine that was obviously keeping it alive, and your gut tells you to get the picture done ASAP, get the kid back on the machine, and don't make any extra/unnecessary movements that you might get sued for, if there were any "injuries" to the child. Remember, the lawyers rule the land now, and nearly EVERYBODY is now sue-happy. Oh, wait, the family is complaining that the pic wasn't good enough, the want comp'ed?? SEE! |
