You can tell this hits home for a lot of families.. the parents part is what ppl will argue about RNZ group chat is gonna go off. A bit more consistency would go a long way.

Heartbreaking story. Those parents must be going through so much, can't imagine.

Name suppression should be rare and only if there's a real safety risk. Otherwise transparency matters.

I work in healthcare. Sometimes name suppression is needed to protect vulnerable people. Not defending anyone, just saying it's complex.

Chloe Martin2026-06-14T00:11:02.000Z

nah, I get that, but in cases like this it feels like hiding mistakes.

Hope the family gets some peace. 2014 and still fighting… that's rough.

Why are we suppressing names of professionals? What's the point?

Tom Harris2026-06-14T00:41:02.000Z

call. It can look like that.

Sage Lawson2026-06-14T00:46:02.000Z

Terrible loss. But maybe there's a reason the names are suppressed — we don't know the full story.

Cameron Diaz2026-06-14T00:56:02.000Z

transparency is key. People need to know.

James O’Brien2026-06-14T01:01:02.000Z

Absolutely tragic. That hospital needs to be held accountable.

Ella Thompson2026-06-14T01:21:02.000Z

Name suppression feels like protecting the system over people. 😞

River Cole2026-06-14T01:41:02.000Z

I'm torn on this. But the parents' voice should count.

there is probably a bit more to this than the headline is giving.. wait till facebook gets the parents headline RNZ group chat is gonna go off. Feels like the context matters more here than people think.

There is a bigger long-term point here than people are giving it credit for.. wait till facebook gets the parents headline. The long game matters more than a quick headline cycle.
