[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ask her and let her decide. Better she remember grandma living than dead.[/quote] Nope. She goes to the funeral. If it’s too much, you can take her outside. But honestly, it will probably lighten the mood to have her there. Teach her to show up for people. Plenty of adults don’t make themselves go through uncomfortable things because they were always given the choice. [/quote] Why? Funerals are for the living, not the dead. If she's not comfortable, she doesn't need to go. This isn't an adult. She doesn't need to show up for people, [b]she needs to do what's best for her. She's a child.[/b] If you need emotional support, bring your therapist.[/quote] She's a child, who has never experienced death before. She doesn't know what's best. Having no life experience, she needs adult guidance to process the death of her close family member.[/quote]
