[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No way. I think children should be exposed to death and funerals but not MIL's BFF's DH. Not a close enough relation. [/quote] Interesting. I would think that the death of someone who is not close is actually a [i]good [/i]place to start introducing kids to the idea and to funeral customs; they can start to think about death with a death that doesn't actually personally affect them, which would be easier for them than dealing with their own grandma's death. If I were in your shoes, I think I'd consider bringing the kids as a favor [i]if[/i] the church/funeral home has a place where DH and I could take the kids out if they got rambunctious, but that's only because I know that my mom and MIL are not the type to request that type of thing if it isn't really important to them. If they were less reasonable, it would be a different story. I also don't have twins, though, so that is probably also a different story. [/quote]
