Induction at 36 weeks

So like I've said before... I've only seen one natural labor (2 if you include mine) in the past 3 years. Another friend was induced at 36 weeks just now at her appointment. I don't get it. Some of you know I lost a friend shortly after her (early) induction. Someone please help ease my mind about how it's not that big of a deal apparently. I don't know what it is with my area, since I've seen glow comments saying "doctors won't induce early unless there is a problem" but it just isn't true. It just weighs so heavy on my mind after everything bad that has happened & I have panicked over every birth since that day & yes that includes my own. I just don't understand it and how no one thinks twice about it. 😓 is it really not that serious? I don't get it.
