Would you take your toddler?
My step-grandmother is being buried out of town on Saturday. All of us are going to be there for the event, which is just a graveside service (only family - should be short). My son doesn't remember my step-grandmother. He is three and very talkative. I don't worry about him disrupting the service or anything like that. I just wonder about the whole cemetary/death/putting a casket in the grave thing. He will ask questions, and I don't know if I am prepared with the answers just yet. My family would understand if he didn't go but would be fine if he was there and being a silly three-year-old.
What would you do? Take him and be prepared to field the inevitable questions or send him to a park with my husband during that time?

Re: Would you take your toddler?
If it was someone that I was REALLY close to, I would take the kids. If not, I wouldn't take them.
I took A and J with me to my Grandpa's funeral a few weeks ago. DH was gone and the funeral was out of town in the middle of no where. It was either miss it or take them. There were other kids their age there.
If I had had the option, I would have left them with a sitter.
As for questions, they didn't really ask any questions, but we were not close to my Grandpa. I am sure it would be a different ball game if they were a little older or if it has been someone they were close to.
