    Thanks

    Now that you mention it there have been a few written over the past few years. He made me break my rule and start second-quessing myself. I don’t normally discuss a book with friends before it has been completed so I learned something there also. Thanks for the fast response.

    Generally, society does look down on killing children, but not a well-written drama.

    It's just a story. If it's necessary to your plot for a child to die, then off with his head! Of course it's horrible, of course it's sad. That's the whole point. Unless you're doing it for comedy. Some people can pull off that Dead Baby Comedy well, but most people will find it just as horrible, if not completely disgusting.
