I don't mean to laugh, this is genuinely cruel, but it's also just really funny 
"Daddy died because you wanted blueberries and didn't manage your finances well enough"
I'm sorry but this is sitcom levels of funny
her mom makes her blueberry pancakes two years from now and she starts hysterically crying saying she’d rather have her dad back
great parenting skills trad mom
I want to know something, what's the deal with westerners being so bad at telling kids a person died? even a religious person like her is bad at this, arguably the easiest ones to explain are religious people "oh sweetie we believe that there's a life and an afterlife and when we die our spirits leave our bodies here then we end up in the afterlife" just say that, but she won't do that because even to the standards of the worst christians his ass is likely looking up right now.
westerners' avoid thinking about death as a general rule and far too many have kids as some kind of performance or as a method to fill the hope left by their own unrealized dreams and aspirations.
basically, they aren't having kids to build a future so much as having kids to reconcile their past. and death is the ultimate future, so they completely biff it when the kid has questions.
I remember reading that his kids saw him get shot. Poor things. I hope they get therapy but this makes me think they won't
This was probably only said to garner sympathy
"Sweetie, look at this household discretionary budget for last quarter. Your blueberry requests are creating untenable expenditures for the firm. You need to cut back or we may have to consider a legal intervention to reduce access to spending. As my daughter you are a fiduciary and have an obligation to keep us profitable."

Marx really spent 3 whole volumes yapping about the cost of a good coat and never mentioned blueberries once.
well sure, i can buy a good coat for a week's wage, but around here organic blueberries cost an arm and a leg
no, the arm and leg were fine, it was just the neck
why didn't this devout christian just say he's in heaven and theyll meet again? maybe Mrs. Kirk thinks he's in hell lololol
Oh there’s no way she actually said that to her daughter, that’s some scripted shit they made up for the camera.
It’s lying but I think it’s really just the mom passing on her inability to deal with death. The “he’s with Jesus now” shit is what she’s telling herself to avoid facing any trauma. So it’s what she tells the daughter, and now the daughter will grow up emotionally incapable of dealing with death.
Would people really do that, just use religion as a massive cope around their inability to deal with mortality?
It's a great way to turn her against Jesus when he doesn't return from this work trip.
You took my dad
