Yeah, I would imagine that convincing yourself that there was absolutely nothing that you, or the people that you entrusted, could have done to save your child, and it was just their "time" is a pretty natural human reflex/coping mechanism.

Perhaps she feels guilt at having sent her to a camp and feels ultimately responsible for her daughter's death, and this is her way of coping with it. Again, as a parent, I can't imagine the grief I would feel if one of my daughters died in such a horrific way. She is now living in a world that no longer makes any sense. We need to cut her some slack. 

I once created a video for Texas Parks & Wildlife Department to teach teens about lake drownings and how to avoid them. We found and interviewed parents who has lost teens and put them on. camera. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done and I'm still friends with two of the families. The grief they feel is so profound even today. One of the moms told me that as their children's friends experience their new milestones, like graduation, college marriage, etc, they feel the loss all over again.    

Love your kids. They can be taken away in an instant.

You’re not sure what the Uvalde County election results from November 2022  say about the premise that “dead kids tend to rile people up?”
