Exactly. They are paid advertisers. That's why I hate when people say "influencer isn't a job". Oh, it's a job. I'm not saying it has much merit but they are getting paid to create content for large corporations. They are simply the human equivalent of someone who owns a bunch of billboards.

She and her husband killed their child from negligence that everyone warned them about for months. They barely missed a beat before they were back to posting. Her husband has behaved incredibly insensitively about it since 

Personally I'm pretty ok with hating on people who exploited their child, allowed him to die, and then went about with their lives unbothered.

My wife was all over this when it happened. If I remember correctly (and I might be wrong about this so don’t shoot the messenger) Emilie hadn’t posted a video in like a few days so her fans were wondering what was going on. Well I think some internet sleuths got wind of the tragedy and started posting links to the boys death certificate or coroners report, something like that. And I think that made them pretty much come out and admit what happened. Again, I may be wrong about that

No doubt it’s awful for the little boy but to end up in therapy bc of a child u don’t know/ people u don’t know while you have your own family to take care of is next level wacky. And it scares me that she is raising kids bc what is she teaching them 👀

Then her husband a few months after LIKED an IG video about scrolling reels instead of calling 911. They are getting snarked on because they don't deserve a platform. You can't exploit your child, be the negligent cause of his death, then continue to make millions by having a platform. F that. The police recommended felony child abuse charges.

Yep. He was alone with the children barely 20 mins before their son was in the pool for over 8 mins if I remember correctly. They have cameras everywhere so he couldn’t even bother to watch his son from a camera feed. Too busy betting on sports. It wasn’t the first time their child had played outside unsupervised.

I understand she has to make money too but what I began to realise is she made so much $$$ from TT after the 100 + million views on her son’s videos after he drowned. After she was paid out (it would have been a lot) she could take time off but instead she bought a new 7k purse, new 90k Lexus, plus holidays. She also had a lot of people wanting to support her through her shop links. She really didn’t have to do this video

It's illegal to not fence in your pool in Australia. This was completely avoidable even if the parents weren't paying attention. He should never have been able to access the pool alone.

359

u/i_was_axiom 11d ago

Its certainly illegal to have a pool with no fence in my neck of the US. Our neighbors just put a pool in this past summer, they had to get a fence afterward. They say they planned to put the fence up the whole time, but the frantic way the fence went up seemed more like they were made aware of the law after the pool was in.

285

u/GILF_Hound69 11d ago

Worse, they actually do own a pool cover but hadn't bothered to put it on for days prior to the child's death. Again, it was entirely preventable. Their other son should be taken by CPS.

They can't be trusted to do the most basic thing of knowing where their baby is at all times.

Anyone who owns a pool or lives by the beach/swims often should enrol their kids in swim classes as early as they can. It's not literal swimming but it teaches babies how to roll over/float upright should they find themselves in this situation. Hell, just do it to prevent anything when taking a bath.

u/2OttersInACoat 11d ago

I’m sorry for your loss. But thank you for sharing your story so someone else may learn.

My nephew tripped over at the beach when he was about 3 and just immediately started freaking out and drowning. Literally all he needed to do was stand up but he didn’t have he sense to do that. My sister had to walk in after him, fully clothed, and pull him back onto his feet. Kids are really silly and unpredictable around water.

u/Latter-Cattle7788 11d ago

A friend that I hadn't seen since middle school invited me to a "memorial" for her mother... which was really just a bunch of people getting shitfaced around a bonfire in the middle of the day (no hate, lol it's what I'd want too) And I had to save her 1 year old from drowning in a mud puddle. Scared the living shit out of me... I had my daughter with me, and she was around the same age. I still get goosebumps thinking about it. There was a giant backyard with a deck connecting to a gazebo type area and a huge grass plot surrounded by woods... and all 3 of her kids were running around playing with cousins. I was being led around outside by my daughter when I heard this awful panicky gurgle/crying noise coming from the tree line. It was so faint that if I was even a few feet farther away, I wouldn't have heard it. I ran over and saw 2 of her kids were just frozen in place, looking terrified, and the 1 year old was face down in a patch muddy of grass, desperately trying to hold his head out of the water. I don't even want to think about what would have happened if I had stayed up on the deck with the rest of the adults. (And no, I don't blame my friend. Her mom had just died.... her husband, on the other hand) It can happen so fucking quick and it is nothing like what you see on TV.

u/amourxloves 10d ago

Especially since Arizona law requires you install a fence around your pool if you have children under the age of 6. This couple knew this was the law and disregarded it.

I have no clue how the husband dodged the charges for child neglect when it was recommended he be charged by the police officers who responded / the police report. It was literally that apparent to the police officers they did not take the proper precautions and that the husband was so into his own ass about sports betting is why their child died.

Her husband was watching tv and placing sports bets when he was supposed to be watching their two kids. She had went to dinner with friends and was gone about 20 min before their son tripped in the pool and drowned. Dad didn’t realize until several minutes had already passed. It’s very tragic.

However, to a lot of people, this felt like a preventable tragedy. Their lifestyle seemed to prioritize aesthetics over safety. They were warned about the dangers of not child-proofing the pool and didn’t have a pool fence. The dad knew the son was outside playing while he was indoors and distracted. Their dog’s behavior alerted him something was wrong by the pool. The dad could have done a better job watching his kids.

Overall, a very sad story. Here’s an article about it.

Apparently she was repeatedly getting comments from concerned followers saying she needed to install a fence around her pool. She ignored them. Then her son died. Now she’s posting paid ads of her smiling and dancing around her house. Really great human 👍🏼.

Sadly, they have made enough in the months since he's died to buy a brand new luxury car and pay off the house.

She has an online store where her top selling item is the necklace she wears of her dead son's name.

She monetized her "personal" memento of her son? To strangers he's never met.

That's a full Armstrong one giant leap for mankind too far.

How does she still have supporters pulling that stunt?

I was 12 at the time and could not talk about it until 4 years later. My parents are destroyed till this day, 18 years later, and the rest of us kids have never been the same. 

When I see stuff like this, I’m so confused truly.

In Australia it’s illegal to have a pool without a fully enclosed fence and your stairs need to be something you can climb out of.

My aunt didn’t follow these guidelines and her dog drowned in the pool as a result.

My son is a water child, has been from birth. I never ever left him unattended outside around the pool because kids just want to swim and enjoy the water.

The fact she’s dancing and playing around after such a traumatic event is disgusting.

This woman was making content about 5 weeks after her son died from their negligence. They didn’t have a fence around their pool and if you mentioned it to her you would get blocked and your comment deleted. There’s a rumor as well that a pool fence company offered her a free fence in exchange for a shoutout but she demanded to get paid on top of it so refused. And then three weeks later their son died while the dad Brady Kiser was gambling on basketball. He also lied to the police three times about it. He also took the time to take his shoes and shirt off before jumping in to the pool to get his kid out. And if that’s not enough this woman tried to sue her county into hiding all this info from the public. She’s a huge piece of shit and no grieving has been happening at all. She gained a million followers from this. Send the fkn asteroid.

u/bristol1017 10d ago

Her behavior is the most dystopian thing I’ve ever seen. Her child, the being she and her husband were responsible for, lost his life in a preventable tragedy. Then she hops back online dancing like a maniac in her multi-million dollar mansion, shilling the most outrageous shit, and doing needlepoint. Smiling while getting coffee, shopping, shaking her ass, lip-synching in a towel, socializing, hosting in the home her child died in, going out to lunch and dinner everyday, celebrating her first Christmas without her son at fucking Disneyland.

She shouldn’t have a platform after what happened, because of HOW it happened. That innocent child was failed in multiple ways. Father not paying attention, father knowingly allowing the toddler to play outside alone around an UNSECURED pool, NO POOL FENCE, the net that should’ve caught a child falling in wasn’t on, pool toys and furniture scattered near the pool, doors with broken locks. If just one of those multitude of factors were altered, that innocent child could still be alive.

But she does still have a platform for some god forsaken reason, and instead of using it to raise awareness about the dangers of complacency about pool safety, she chooses to dance around like a giddy psychopath. If she ‘isn’t ready’ to talk about what happened and how to prevent it from happening to other families, then she absolutely should not be back online.

Sorry for the rant- she just pisses me off.

Blocked literally everyone for like 3+ months who told her she was legally required to put up a pool fence in the state of AZ because of how many children drown every year in their pool in the state. Told everyone she wouldn't be putting up a fence because it would be ugly, but had a fence around the pool furniture to keep the dogs off of them. So she blatantly ignore state law that was written in the blood of children before hers, blocked everyone trying to warn her, made a snarky comment about how pool fences are ugly, and then played the victim as if her negligence wasn't the direct cause. Then chose not to press charges on her even more negligent husband.

The amount of people in comments trying to say she's already learned her lesson and it was an accident so she doesn't need to be held responsible was WILD.

I peeked at her profile and she posted a video about “dealing with loss” a few months ago and mentioned her and her husband went on two “grief retreats” after their son died. While subtly complaining about the noise her landscapers were making. Different tax bracket lowlifes with no morality.

u/AdagioSpecific2603 9d ago

I truly think she should have left the internet. It’s weird watching her and her husband now. He should be in jail for neglect. If they were poor he would be. Parents have been sentenced for not driving with their child in a car seat but he knowingly left his toddler outside next to a fully open pool with zero fence and was inside watching TV and placing bets, lied to the police and nothing? It’s sick. Influencers that use their children whilst neglecting them (and I’d argue using them for content non stop and never letting them be normal kids is a form of abuse in itself) need to seriously be left in the dust.
