I agree with you completely and can’t believe I got taken to task on this.
A mother has lost a precious child. She is instructed to preserve the baby and take it to the hospital, so she does so. She is in no condition to drive herself, so she asks her trusted teenaged son to drive her. He does, and because he is there, he sees this precious sibling 'in a jar.'
It's being portrayed by some here as a heartless mother with a jar taking her little boy aside and saying, "Look at this!" when it is a different situation entirely.
I will agree that having to do what Bar did, and what young George W. had to do, is both bizarre and disturbing, but I would ask you both how a deeply distraught mother following doctor's instructions could have handled it differently to make it less 'bizarre.'
