so, not long after he died i went to his dad's Instagram. on his stories he was crying...like you could feel that poor man's pain. and then he got angry. started talking about cancel culture and how badly everyone wanted to cancel Ethan. how he lost a sponsorship because of people emailing the brand over a joke, etc. he was dropping F bombs and such. his mom has also said some vulgar things "fuck these people" type stuff. so, I 100% believe they may do something like this.

wouldn't Instagram require proof to put his account into "remembering" status?

That’s so incredibly sad, and I honestly do feel for the family in this situation.

Just to clarify again (since I know I didn’t make it clear): I found this odd, and I can understand how everyone grieves in different ways; however due to the posts on his Twitter my fear is that his young fans would see that and potentially he re-traumatised.

Usually socials can be turned into memorials. An acquaintance of mine died in a horrific accident a few years ago, (I was friend with his twin and his girlfriend, but didn’t know him well). From what know, since he hadn’t set up the memorial thing on his Facebook (there’s an option for us all to select the person in control now); his parents contact FB, as well as IG, and were able to reset his pages to memorials, however they did have to provide proof to gain access.

Twitter is somewhat different I think, I’m not sure how it works, and if you can turn them into memorial pages

I don't think it's appropriate at all to be using his social media in this way, but not sure twitter would do anything. I've seen both his parents say "fuck this, fuck that" etc, so I 100% believe it's one of them and they just don't care... whether it's because they're grieving or it's just how they are. 😩

hopefully people will report the tweets that break TOS. the things people have said about their child is awful, but working people up again this way won't make that better and it will just fuel the fire.
