Will You Visit Your Parents' Graves After They Die?

[Tamoo]

hmm, well ive never known my dad and my mums gonna be cremated so no i guess

 

[Overload]

You know, it just came into my mind...how do we really know we will be the ones visiting their graves and not the other way round? Sad, but possible.

Yes but more often than not children outlive their parents. It only makes sense to ask this question and not the other.

Yeah, it's kinda' random.

Honestly, I'm suprised at the responses so far. I expected lots of sarcams and crude jokes. I guess when it comes to their mommies even people on the internet are ready to show their respect.

It is random. It randomly popped into my head the day I made this topic, and I couldn't figure out why I had the thought.

Why would I want to make myself sad? I don't see any other consequence of visiting my parents' graves.

 

[TheLoneWolf]

Hell yeah....

U **** right I'm goin to my mama's grave. If I don't love nobody else on dis Earth, I'ma always love her cuz she was dere fo me when nobody else was. I love her to death, & I take anybody out if dey eva mess wit her.

 

[WolfenMiatang]

No matter how my parents arent as great as other parents, I'd still visit them because I still at least had parents.
Im glad I still go to my brother's grave, He didnt deserve to be down there

Personally it pains me greatly to discuss such a subject...
But yes, and I would make sure that their ashes get spread where my parents want to be.
My grandparents are already in the mid 80s, and I don't think I'd be able to fully take the emotional agony that ensues upon their deaths.
I might even drive myself half insane over the deaths of ANY of my family members.

 

[Fuelbi]

well of course i will. but since i dont live with my mom instead it has to be my grandmother....... she says that when she dies she wants me to keep her in the closet........ that was a joke she always says that. but on a serious note i thought the reason to go there was to pay respect for the dead. and since we've been raised by two people all our childhood, teenhood, and part of our adulthood then there is alot to be gratified about.

 

[wool]

I donno it seems like a waste of time. Why bother with the dead.

 

[Tacel]

Why bother with the dead.

Because they're dead.

 

[mzink*]

I'm not really sure, I don't usually do expected formalities like that, not out of disrespect, but because I usually have my own way of honoring someone after their death that means more to me than standing over a grave.

For instance, I would honor my mother by being the best mother of my abilities and showing my children all the care and love I was shown and carrying out everything she taught me by caring for me and my siblings. Alive or not, she will be in my thoughts as I raise my own family.

 

[uhmuzing]

I will visit every chance I get.

 

[Aus0115]

yea i will visit them at there graves but thats awhile from now

 

[Omnicron's Baklava Enterprises]

I donno it seems like a waste of time. Why bother with the dead.

You shall never see them again. The fact that you think it is a 'waste of time' is completely idiotic.

 

[Cashed]

Depends on where they're buried, though I'm pretty sure both of my parents plan on being cremated.

 

[~Zack~]

No doubt, I'd visit quite often.

 

[sammy p]

holy kow yes!
im lucky enough to have 2 amazing parents so no doubt id visit them a good number of times!

 

[Elder Sister]

meh, just talking about their death is cruel to me
how can you all say "yeah imah visit my moms/dads grave when s/hes

Spoiler

finally

dead...

parents deserve to be thanked, all your life long.
i think not visiting the graves of ones parents would mean forgetting them.

 

[Lustar]

I most likely will visit my Parents’ Graves. Unless I've been in a horrible conflict with them soon after they passed away but I don't think that's going to happen.

 

[The 5th Horseman]

I will every chance I get out of respect.

 

[Hydra.]

Yes because it's just a time to get away from everything else in your day and remember all the memories you had together.

 

[ChAlz]

I'd want my children visiting my grave if I was dead, so yes.

 

[Infinite Emerald]

Yes, 100% yes.

I'd want my children visiting my grave if I was dead, so yes.

I agree with you 100%, I couldn't live with my self if I didn't. Those who don't agree with me that is your loss, and I feel sorry for you.

 

[sammy p]

I agree with you 100%, I couldn't live with my self if I didn't. Those who don't agree with me that is your loss, and I feel sorry for you.

and I.... 100% agree with that!

 

[D.B.K.]

and I.... 100% agree with that!

And I'll agree with you agreeing with her(?). You should pay your respects even if you don't believe that they'll hear you.

 

[†Slader7†]

Indeed, 100% yes, I will visit their graves. They gave me this life so I should honor them for doing so.

Like someone else has said earlier in this thread, one shouldn't have to visit a gravestone to pay respect because that's what's "normal." Everyone has their own way of remembering their loved ones. One could argue that doing an activity that you and your father/mother/parents used to enjoy doing together is more meaningful than visiting their grave.

 

[JUDGE]

i think everyone hear on swf would go visit the parent's grave

 

[superkid]

Ofcourse i would!
I love my mom and my dad so much..
It almost makes me cry when i think about the future, when i visit their grave.. probably its gonna takes ALOT more years though..
I would visit both my moms and my dads..(divorced)..
Why wouldn't you?
You should respect your parents, you have been brought to life by your mom and dad and they raised you. without them you would be nothing..

 

[Synthe]

Yea, anytime i think about em

 

[SuperStar21]

Every sunday

 

[gunterrsmash01]

My parents plan to be cremated

i've heard of a boy who died and his dad wanted him cremated, then they took the ashes and put/made it into a diamond ring and now the dad wears the ring everyday.

 

[GALE 14]

sure but not so often

 

[Nø Ca$h]

my mothers deffinatly.

but i will never give any respect to my old man. not untill he pay the $93000+ in child support he owes me, AND quits drinking

idgaf what anyone says, my old man is a sorry excuse for a human being. he dug his own grave and cut his own ties.

if id want my children to visit me, id give them a reason to.

 

[Hive Mind]

I realized I should after I watched Mask of the Phantasm.

 

[Caleb Wolfbrand]

Only my mother's.

might pee on my father's.

 

[Don Kirby]

Of course I would visit my parents!
Everyone should respect their parents!
They do what they can and just for you!

 

[princessofsmash]

my mom: YES!!!:D
my dad: what a douche bag.

 

[Elder Sister]

its kinda sad that alota people would visit their moms grave but not their dads....
im female so i dont mind, but stilll:T___T

 

[mr.fizwidget]

in my family it is common tradition to leave flowers by the grave site of your loved ones...i plan to do the same when my parents go
