Should I Go To A Funeral If I Don’t Want To?

Well my great great aunt died. My mom is trying to make me go but I never met her, don’t know her at ALL, never heard of her until now and I won’t know any of the people there. I would rather go to school. Its on a Thursday. Who plans a funeral on a Thursday?? Seriously?? I would go if it was on the weekend… but I really want to go to school. My mom wont let me. What should I tell her and should I actually go..

    Go, there might not be many people there which is sad. She is your Aunt regardless of having met her or not.
    You can go to school anytime

    Go to school, she was a stranger to you.

    Funerals are for the living, so if you don’t want to go, politely stand your ground. I’m sorry for your family’s loss.

    Go. You’re not going for yourself, you’re not going for your aunt and you’re not going for any of the other people there. You’re going for your mom, to give her the support she feels she needs. Funerals don’t last all day and you’ll be back in school and back to your life on Friday.

    I know you may not want to go but go for your mom. Maybe she’s trying to get you to go because she wants someone there to support her.

    CMON you will have an excuse to miss school. Go to the funeral, its better than missing school, trust me, I went to a funeral not too long ago and I got to miss school, and well, you are gonna be sad. If you dont go, your mom will think you wont care. You also have an excuse to miss doing Homework. Anyways, you are sad about this right? Just go.

    Funerals are during the week days all the time. If the person died on a Saturday do you really expect them to wait until next Saturday for the funeral? The body will start to rot and planning the funeral only takes about 3 days.
    Tell your mom you don’t want to go.

    not your fault. pray pray pray tho

    if your great great aunt was close to your mom and she really wants you to go, maybe she needs you for moral support, or just someone to feel close to after the loss of one of her family members. if it will make your mom happy that your there then go. you could prob go to school straight after, funerals are only a couple of hours or so.
