I’m a freshmen in college and I got a call from my dad this morning saying my uncle killed himself last night. My dad said to stay here and they would have the funeral this weekend when none of the kids would miss school (he had 8 nieces and nephews), but I really don’t want to be here at school away from everyone, but no one wants me to come home. On top of that my little brother turned 7 today and I had planned on coming homing early Friday, but I’m pretty sure my dad would be upset I missed class because of what’s going on. I’m not sure what I should do. Is it wrong to be extremely p***ed off he did this on my brother’s birthday of all days? I’m not sure what to do and I really needed to vent. Any appropriate answers are appreciated. Thank you.

No. It completely natural to feel angry after something terrible has happened even if it is not reasonable if seems to be at the time. When my uncle died I was angry with the doctors for not helping him, but now I realise that was a silly reaction. I think you should go home early to see your little brother as he might be feeling a but ignored at the moment and it’s unlikely your dad will get cross with you in this sort of situation. Hope you and your family will be ok.:)
Get in a quiet place by yourself and listen too music. Get a writing pad and a pen. Write down all of your feelings. EVERYTHING! Of course its normal for you to be upset. You’re family knows you want to be there with them and their doing what they believe is best for you. Sorry for your loss. Your in my prayers and I hope that you will stay strong even in sticky situations like these.
this is a particularly hard time for your father so show him some respect and do as he has asked you.
don’t forget to say a prayer for your uncle.
Listen to your father and stay in school. As for your little brother, call him and tell him that you’ll be home later on to celebrate his birthday.
Its messed up and instead of celebrating now you guys will be grieving
that’s crap.I’m sorry
just go home anyways
