Even if the end result is the same & you know it in advance, hearing the story of how it happens can trigger the urge to intervene & help, & knowing you can't often means emotions just spill out.

Also, I don't know the context for the first half of your comment, but there are lots of situations where through rationalization or acclimatization we accept death as normal & natural. But death of a child always seems unfair.
