yeah rainyshoes, i definitely agree with you about the funeral being for the sake of the grievers. there is a good point in this thread about sympathy a person's survivors.

as for people who commit suicide-- i just feel sorry that they were in a bad enough situation to actually want to do that.

also just as a side-note, in your example about the child who died, i guess the parents are grieving because of the years that they think he could have had left, etc. i definitely feel for them, but i would grieve for the child in the same way the parents would, too, i suppose.
