Reply to comment by nai_jenkins in Vt. Community Confronts Little Sprouts CEO David Post Over 30% Tuition Hike at 3/15 and 3/16 Virtual Meetings by ChildCearPlz
For this company's business model, it does cost quite a lot. Did you know that they were the first people to pay benefits to childcare workers in the state? I get the impression they tend to be on the cutting edge, thus the expense.

It depends completely on what is included that makes it quality (and also what your mortgage costs!) The way the state defines quality does cost a lot to achieve, but I agree there are many ways to take great care of kids that are less expensive.

Anyone who is at the point of committing to this action is not well, not thinking right and can't be judged as if they had any idea of the consequences of their actions. Agreed it is awful for anyone witnessing it, and my heart goes out to them. But you can't judge an unwell person.

Quality childcare doesn't have to cost more than a mortgage.

Being suicidal shouldn’t give someone a pass to do whatever the hell they want when it impacts the lives of innocent strangers. In this case - the engineer. Another case is that Bourgoin guy who killed a car full of Harwood students by smashing into it intentionally. Those sorts of actions should never be acceptable.

As a person working in Vermont with people who attempted suicide, or want to, the scenarios I described are incredibly common. More so than you think. Very very very many people do not share your reality.

If she genuinely had no control over her brain, then yes. But I struggle to accept that this is the case when this sort of thing happens - sort of like the Bourgoin case who killed the kids from Harwood by intentionally smashing into their car. The lack of caring about anyone else’s well being in the pursuit of your own death is just unfathomable.

I mean, she was suicidal, she probably wasn’t thinking of all the above. That’s sick to call her evil.

Yes Scott is clearly more comfortable with hundreds of Vermonters od’ing than trying something different. It is disappointing.

I absolutely feel for this engineer and anyone else who witnessed or was impacted by her death
And
While this seems like it was intentional, we can’t just assume she was a person who was depressed and has decided to die.
She may have been struggling with a different reality that contributed to her actions. For instance, if a person was under the delusion that killing themselves this way would save the rest of humanity from getting hit by an asteroid, would you have a different opinion of her? If she was hallucinating that children were on the tracks and she opted to get hit first, so they didn’t, would you have a different opinion of her?
