I need to know AITAH. My husbands grandma passed away this week and her funeral is in another state (3.5 hours away) but I really don’t want to go. I adored her but we weren’t super close and we haven’t even visited her in almost 2 years. My kids (5 and 2) barely know her but I would have to bring the kids to the funeral. My 5 year old has anxiety about people dying he’s already asked me when i’ll die and when my parents will die..it’s been a whole ordeal. When i told my 5 year old my husbands grandma died he asked who is that and then proceeded to ask when everybody else will die. Also my husband left town a day early and I will be going down by myself which isn’t a big deal (just a headache) but i’ll only be in town for less than 24 hours. Hubby thinks im just making excuses to not go but I know I’ll be the one handling the kids alone while the family visits and basically im just there to be seen in my opinion. I loved the woman but i feel like the funeral hassle is a waste of my time which sounds so harsh but dang ill be wrangling kids and it’s just hard :( am I in the wrong for thinking it’s easier to stay home and wanting to skip? He was PISSED when i asked to stay home this morning but he told me yesterday to just stay home if I wanted.
ETA: i’m attending with my kids. i think im just so burned out as a SAHM running my babies to appointments and everything im looking at this as something else on my plate and not the fact my husband needs me. thank you all for being honest because i really think these posts help us get in check and know if we’re in the wrong or not.
