[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, they probably decided to hold the funeral when she died. They don’t usually get delayed. [/quote] To add an additional layer this is a sore subject for me because I missed out on my masters ceremony due to the funeral of my grandmother. She lived far enough away that I couldn’t do both. Although I was an adult, it’s still a sensitive subject for me.[/quote] Missing your masters ceremony is completely different than missing an 8th grade trip. You are getting triggered here, and it's clouding your judgment. The question is how much your child wants a relationship with her cousins and extended family. To not show up at her grandmother's funeral because she had something better to do isn't a great way to be a part of a family. And they'll all blame you for either not letting her go, or that you're such a pushover that you would let her do an 8th grade event rather than go.[/quote]
