What if your dad or mother died how long would you allow the other parent grieve? I think that people should be able to grieve as long as they want. The reason why is because they will always remember that person for the rest of their lives. For example if my father died I would want my mother to wait at least 3 months to remarry. The reason why is because I wouldn’t want anyone to take over my dad’s spot in my life.

But if my mother died and my father remarried I wouldn’t want him to remarry for at least 4 months. I would want him the wait a little longer because I would be closer to my mom than my dad. For another example unfortunately my while my mom was still alive my dad remarried and I am not close with my step mother at all. .My dad has been married to my stepmom for 14 years now. But my mom died a year ago last June 11So if one of your parents die then try and keep the other one from remarrying for awhile just so that you can find out if you want to have another parent in your life.
