People are affected in different ways when they lose their loved ones. However, when it comes to funerals, there are a lot of things that one should avoid. Here are some of the things that you should not do while in a funeral.

1. Wear heels

When going to a burial site, a lady should avoid putting on heels. This is because when one puts on heels, walking around the burial field might be hard. Hence, it is good to wear flat shoes.

2. Lie to young children

When it comes to going for a funeral with children, there are more chances for children question what is happening. Normally, parents would lie to their kids that the dead are just asleep which is not good

Instead, if the child is too young to understand, it is better to leave them at home when going to burials.

3. Compare your grief with that of the bereaved

Even though you were close to the dead, it is not right comparing your grief with that of the bereaved. The closest family may have their ways of grieving which should not be compared to any other person.
