what should ones reaction be to losing a father or mother be?

I always felt that you should feel said and that the only way to accept the lose was to be aware that there not suffering anymore (unless he/she was bad) that they'ed be in a better place but when i lost my dad my ideas changed now i feel that my dad isn't dead that he lives threw me you know genetic wise

anyway the question is what should a person reaction be?

Sadness is the weakest emotions of all... But I don't show it outside when someone died in our family. Its good for a man to cry for the only persons he loved. I also think that they are in good hands now, so I don't worry to much... But i will miss them...

well i think that should feel sad about the lost of your dad or mom, but you have to think about the future and what you will do without their presense in your life.

Sorry this is a journal topic. Also no real discussion can go on here since there is no certain way to act. Its up to the individual.
