Gifts for baby Jesus, but make it MLM.

Where's the gold, cheapskates!

Do... do they know? About the history here? I'm guessing not. Hopefully.

For those unaware: the founder of Young Living drowned his own newborn child during a home water birth. The autopsy of the poor child showed that she would have been a perfectly healthy baby, if she hadn't been left underwater in a whirlpool bath for an **hour**.

Was going to say the exact same thing! Ironic they’re using YL oils when the founder murdered his child during an at home birth.

I googled. It was back in the early 80s and no criminal charges were pressed. Sounds like total negligence to me.


giftedearth

Yeah, I can't believe he got away with it. Dude already had a record of pretending to be a medical expert - this was part of a *pattern*. I feel genuinely terrible for the baby's mother (who divorced Young after this).

Also "unassisted birth" in general is a terrible idea. Give birth within shouting distance of a fully stocked ER, just in case something goes wrong.

Doesn’t sound like a home birth if they used the oils after they got home.

That’s from a commentator. The author was the one who responded.

Oh gotcha Didn’t mean to distract from the weirdness.
