Thanks for the replies its really helped me. It is my ex husbands mum whos died. We were married for 20yrs & although she was a typical mum In law but she is my sons granny. My gran is ill at the moment as well so at least I'll get to see her. Plus my goodbyes where rushed wen we left so i feel after this event the need to see them again. I love my life in Australia but feel drawn at this time back to my family

My 20yr old sons been visiting us for the last month. Unfortunately his grandma died at the weekend. Despite the family at home telling him he didn't have to return early for the funeral he wanted to. I decided to travel home with him as & return in five days. My partner isn't happy & expressed that he's felt "neglected" whilst my son was here & said he should go home on his own as he's a grown up now & will I be running home every time someone dies at home!!. In view of recent events im more comfortable knowing im delivering him safely to the family so he can say his farewells. Am I been unreasonable?
