It seems like when family members have died in the past, young children were left with baby sitters, In some cases they were brought to the viewing, but not to the funeral itself. That being said, I remember attending funerals as a very young child, but according to my mom I was always well behaved no matter where they took me. -- HarmyBoard LifeStyles

[> As the mother of a 4 yo I am have to say that as much as part of me would rather have him there I would more than likely leave him with frirends if it was a the funeral of a family member or my mom if it was a friend. Now on the flip side as a child that lost a parent I feel cheated at not attending my dads funeral when I was 4, but since most of that time is barely a blip in my memory, i dont lose sleep over it -- DOS - in the end, children under 6 dont need to be there, 20:07:34 06/13/12 Wed [1]
