The facebook culture of remembering those who have passed by adding their name or tagging them to photos which they are not in seems so unsettling to me. It makes me feel disheartened and uncomfortable when I see it. I know we all grieve differeently but it feels like the person doing the tagging is forcing everyone else to grieve in the same way.
I suppose it comes down to personal choice. I can understand some bereavement related items being posted on facebook, but I cannot understand this pretense that someone is always with us, we wouldn't continue listing a person who has passed away in a phonebook as if they are still contactable, why do we tag people who have passed away. It seems an unhealthy approach to grieving, refusing to let someone go.
