Answer: False

Explanation: The attitudes to public display of grief or mourning vary according to the culture and region. People in some cultures even employ the services of professional mourners who wail loudly at the funeral, this is to show their love for the deceased. How a person expresses their grief is influenced by their personality, their culture and their beliefs.

Abnormal grief is characterized by lack of distress, a much delayed distress, drawn out distress or other patterns that deviate widely from the usual.
