    If she likes helping out at her age then good for her. Bet lot of adults couldn't do it. Also working in funerals you are never going to be out of work

      Yes you are.
      Humanity will either destroy itself or cure aging in the next few centuries, thats 99% of their buisness gone.

      Ae Norist Next few centuries? That numbers are a lot and enough to give them fortune and job security compared to your monthly contract in the office.

      Byr0 Minecraft- I think she was just nervous. She seems a bit socially awkward. But extremely bright, and wise beyond her years. Many adults (myself included!) would not be able to do what she does. I would be a bit concerned about her if I were her mom though. Always being around death, sadness and grief, especially at such a tender age. But somebody has to do it, and she seems to have a real passion for it! I wish her well in all of her future endeavors!

    You are just a year older than I was 61 years ago when my dad died right at my feet. Seeing him in his casket is something I will NEVER forget. Bless you for blessing the people around you, especially at your age, which you were 4 years ago! A true angel!

    Death is not scary because
    it's a part of life. Whether we like it or not there's a time for it which nobody knows when.
    It is scary in the sense knowing you will die not fulfilling what you wanted to do before it happen. 😔

    Being older I realise that I could have done something similar with my career... but cleaning up sick and poo on dead bodies, dealing with families of children... I really can't. I really want to be a crematory operator instead of an embalmer or an undertaker, but getting a license (you need to be put through mortuary school here in the US) would be too expensive for me as I'm already paying for school in a completely different field (I study death in history).

    not no kids and no teenagers ever
