Mom in U.K. Fined for Grieving Too Long at Baby Son's Funeral- A grieving mother in Britain was fined $173 for spending too long at her son's coffin before it was taken away for cremation.
Terrie Rouse, 32, said her grief turned to shock when officials told her she had taken too long to say goodbye, The Daily Mail reported.
"The vicar had asked if I would like to spend a bit more time saying goodbye," she said. "I sat by the coffin for 10 minutes, telling my son how much we loved him and begging him not to be scared."
Officials at the crematorium, run by a local English council, impose an extra charge if any funeral runs over its 30-minute slot.
However, the couple's funeral directors said there was plenty of time for the next funeral which was not due to take place for another 50 minutes.
Rouse’s partner, Lee Smythe, said the fee was "sick and disgusting.""Terrie was weeping hysterically," he said. "She just wanted a few extra minutes to say goodbye to our much-loved little boy."
The couple’s son, Zane, died at five weeks from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome on April 9.
The family waited three months before they could have a funeral to allow for tests to be carried out.
"It was distressing enough having to wait for the funeral because we were left in limbo, but this has just made it all worse," Smythe said.

I can understand if they needed to move the procedure along, but a fine is a little on the extreme side. Grieving is only natural especially if it's a mother losing an infant son. However when a physical body has died it won't feel pain from suffocating in a casket or being cremated. It's too late for them to be "afraid" if they've gone to another place.

Shut the fuck up, you fucking retard.
The woman's kid just dies of SIDS and, if she has the slightest notion of an afterlife, it is perfectly normal for her to say shit about not being afraid in the journey. Not to mention the grief she must be experiencing because of said kid's death by SIDS. I don't even believe in afterlife and can't really say that she does, but given the circumstances and her grief, what you are saying is retarded.

How sad and pathetic. I try to be serious just once and look, that masquerade conspiracy crap comes even here.

I think "serious" went out the window after your second post in this thread, fucknut.

This thread is starting to remind me of the end of a Benny Hill episode.
whomod said: I generally don't like it when people decide to play by the rules against people who don't play by the rules. It tends to put you immediately at a disadvantage and IMO is a sign of true weakness. This is true both in politics and on the internet."

Zzap, Dabney, whomod, snarf...does it really matter? It's like arguing over which one of the insurgents was the biggest pussy.

Nah, doesn't really matter. It's like naming the murderer in an episode of Murder She Wrote. Slightly amusing but completely irrevelant.
