[quote=Anonymous]Dead bodies at open caskets are nothing like their living counterparts, I find. They're much smaller. The faces are slightly different. It has to do with the dehydration and the process/fluids they use. My kids were not traumatized, neither was I. But do I approve of open caskets? Not really. I don't think it serves any purpose. We've been to Japanese funerals, where the bones of the deceased are passed around ritually with ceremonial chopsticks, after partial cremation. That's way less weird than seeing a embalmed face, I have to say! [/quote]
