  1. My 3 year old son drowned 35 years ago. My brother's son has fathered a child. We learned from a baby shower announcement that they are naming the child the same name as my lost child. I am so hurt that they would pick this name without asking if or how this might affect me and my children. I would have told them that I would prefer they pick a different. ....that it hurts my heart to even hear children I don't know who are called by my son's name. My son, who was present as a 5 year old at the drowning is beside himself with anger at the insensitivity and thoughtlessness. It feels like they forgot that we ever had my beautiful son as part of their family. My question is am I overreacting? I don't feel I can be around people who have acted so callously. Has anyone had a similar experience? What did you do. This is causing a great divide in my family.
