To be clear, there’s no indication in this article that the family couldn’t afford this. It sounds like they’ve got great family support. It also sounds like this was an activity this 7 year old took up completely independently, not because someone was like “oh no, we can’t afford a tombstone.” The article reads like this 7 year old is using this activity as a really positive way to cope with the loss of her mother, and then their supportive community picked up on it and ran with it.
That may be the only thing you can do. People with more agency probably wouldn’t feel limited to what is directly spoon fed to them on a social media site.
The amount of time you spent posting vapid responses is much more than it would have taken for you to simply confirm the information on your own. But, you do you.

None of that is in this article
