How families navigate conflicting interpretations of obligation after a patriarch's death

Our whole extended family gathered for Grandpa's funeral last month, and his death has revealed how differently we all understand what family obligation means and who we're supposed to be to each other. Some of us want to stay close to honor his memory, others feel like his death freed them from expectations, and now every interaction feels charged with these unspoken judgments.

More people experience this than they realize.
