Today, my mother-in-law asked for a copy of my son's death certificate so she could have her week-long island beach holiday classed as bereavement leave. FML

drbckflps tells us more.

I haven't read all the comments yet but thank you for your condolences. This is indeed the grandmother of my son and no, she didn't take the holiday as a way of grieving - it was purely opportunistic. She wasn't even polite to us at the funeral: her words to me were, "In six months when I get back you'll have forgotten this whole thing ever happened." Very disappointing. Thank you all again. I'll reply again when I get a chance to read some more comments.

Halloween

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

That's horrible:( I'm sorry for your loss!

Everyone can grieve differently, but that just seems a bit heartless and opportunistic. I'm sorry for your loss OP, I can't imagine how that feels.

My God that's the most insensitive thing I've heard, excommunicate her or something she doesn't deserve a family

Did you punch her in the face? That is horrible.

what a bitch.

That bitch can go live in a dumpster. You don't use a death of any type as a reason to take a vacation like that. They give you that time so you can try to cope with the loss. I'm extremely sorry for your lose, and I hope your mother-in-law goes to hell.
