drowning kid + skeleton

Use drowning kid + skeleton when attention or resources are distributed unfairly while a critical need is ignored.

What it expresses: Neglect and dependency: the parent favoring one swimmer while another sinks above an old skeleton represents a moment where attention or resources are distributed unfairly while a critical need is ignored.
Example: For example, the redesign gets funding while the broken login waits; the visual analogy is the parent favoring one swimmer while another sinks above an old skeleton, signaling that attention or resources are distributed unfairly while a critical need is ignored.
When not to use it: Avoid when the important need is already properly supported; the parent favoring one swimmer while another sinks above an old skeleton would incorrectly signal that attention or resources are distributed unfairly while a critical need is ignored.
