Comfort fail

My well-meaning 10-year-old has a friend whose mother is having surgery. She was attempting to be a good friend and comfort this other little girl, to empathize with her obvious concern for her mother. So she sincerely and sweetly looked at her and said, "That must be really tough, your mom could die." Her friend burst into tears. My daughter made a nice card tonight. Her friend's mother probably thinks my child is the meanest girl at school.
