thoughts on taking my son to the viewing and/or funeral

(F)

That's horrible. As for taking your son to the viewing and/or funeral. That's a tough one. I would talk to your son about it and make sure he understands what has actually happened and what a viewing/funeral actually is! If he seems to understand what it is, ask him if he wants to go. He might feel pretty strongly one way or the other. Or maybe ask some of the other parents and see if they are taking their kids.

When I was 6 my great-grandfather died (he was my best friend up until then. I was even homeschooled until he died so that I could stay at home and spend more time with him). When he died, I was very upset, but I did go to the funeral and the viewing. I remember that my Dad asked me if I wanted to brush my great-grandfathers hair for the viewing because the people at the funeral home didn't brush it the way he liked to have it. I did brush it and while I was very sad about losing my great-grandfather, I was not at all freaked out about the dead body there. But that is probably different for every child.

Del's mom died when he was 12 and he and his older brother did not go to the funeral because their father didn't think that they should. I have asked Del if he wished that he had gone and he said that he doesn't think it would have mattered either way because no matter what, it didn't make any difference.

I hope this helps you figure out what you should do! It's tough (F)

What a morning! I took my final and as a reward for doing so good I decided to go shopping.

Len I tried that Kenzo perfume and it was waaaay too floral for me :( I ended up buying the Lemon perfume, but now that I have it on...it's turning kinda musky :angry: We'll see what it's like in a bit. Right now it's kinda giving me a headache.

Life is a ticket to the greatest show on earth.
