I have enough shit to do in the morning, and I'm not waking up earlier.
But really, why? Why can't America just do things the American way? Why do people reject the idea that Americans are allowed to have their own culture?

The lack of any tradition has been a deafening issue for child deaths.
There are small efforts, such as rainbow babies or purple butterflies (Google them) that are helping bring awareness and systems to grieve. But most are to bring awareness or as a marker to indicate non-verbally to others to tread lightly. But nothing has taken root in the same mourning traditions we see in other cultures.
But in this case, jf isn't just emoting about his opinion, he's at least suggesting some place for further reading. His comment is useful for someone who might want to know more about how other cultures mourn.
No one said that they are not allowed to have their own culture. Read the post you are replying to again. It is implying that American are lacking in mourning traditions and that some should be adopted. Looking at what other cultures do is a start, but there's nothing to say that these new mourning traditions couldn't be entirely new, and specific to Americans.
No, people just constantly assert that other cultures are better and that Americans should adopt their values instead.
