Etiquette at Your Ex-Husband's Mother's Death

Our users share their opinions on the subject:

  • Nothing at all, if you're not close to him. if you are, then I would suggest going as a friend and supporting him. Try to cheer him up if you can.
  • If you left your ex on reasonably good terms and were fairly close to his mother, then it would be acceptable and honorable to go to the funeral services or, you could simply send flowers to your ex's home with a nice card or if flowers are requested at the funeral send the flowers there or, in lieu of flowers send a donation to the charity that is mentioned in the obituary.
  • If he is your ex-husband, it is not proper or appropriate to go to his mother's funeral. It is particularly inappropriate if he has a new wife. You are divorced. If you wanted to stay part of the family, then you should not have gotten a divorce. He is your ex-husband. Please remember the "EX" part.
  • If you have remained on good terms with your ex mother-in-law, and you have minor children and the children want you to accompany them, by all means go. Be as unobtrusive as possible. This is your children's grandmother's funeral, not your ex-husband's. Grown children can go unattended.
