Yes, I was responding to my feelings, but also saying that maybe Max was being insensitive to hide his own feelings and people shouldn't be so hard on him because he doesn't respond the way we might expect him to.

Sometimes we use humor because it is the only way to deal with that which is horrifying. Any morgue, but especially that of children in a place such as this, is something most of us choose not to think about. I was at first offended by the comment from Max, but then I remembered my sister and I going to pick out our mother's casket. Humor was the only way we could keep from cryiing and was in no way a sign of disrespect. On the other hand, If Max is truly a callous individual, God bless him in his ignorance. ;->
