Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A one-year-old or even a three-year-old would not likely have the understanding and language skills to ask such a question. A twelve-year-old would likely have a better understanding of death and funeral customs and would not ask why a deceased person did not attend a party. An eight-year-old is old enough to understand the concept of death but may not fully grasp all the social customs surrounding funerals and may wonder why their grandpa, whom they know has recently passed away, did not attend a family gathering.
