I haven't lost one myself, but my sister did and it was one of the most horrible things I have ever been though (I couldn't even begin to imagine what she went though). I didn't hear the segment, so I guess I am posting a little blind myself, but I don't see anything funny at all about a child dying. That happens when you have children of your own.
the segment was fairly tame. zane played more sensitive drops than he could have and watered them down with sympathetic/regretful moans afterward.
nobody's happy that babies die. tastelessness is defense for a subject that nobody wanted to hear about to begin with. over-the-top gross -> stupidity -> disgusted snicker -> lighter mood. if it gets too real, make it unreal.
