  • i went to my grandparents funeral when i was around that age. i wasnt really upset as i dunno i was too young to have likely emotionally developed or bonded or whatever maybe. sadness of funerals comes when your older i think, then to me its more being set off by the awareness of others sadness and the empathy for them.
