    No. I have noticed that grief (and indeed other feelings) are far more intense as I've become older. It's the way it is expressed that is different.

    When younger, for example, I would have cried openly. Now, I reserve that for when I'm alone.

    not always.. I grew up with it.. so it was second nature by the time I left home.. and many kids I knew and see now are like this.. it depends on their experiences
