Question:
Can an avel for a parent bring their children to a lag baomer bonfire with music? The kids are little so I will have to stay.
Answer:
Hello,
It is permitted for a parent during shloshim or the year or mourning to take them if the kids need the parent to come along. Being that it is considered being in a place that he has to be, and there happens to be music there, i.e. a doctor’s office, when there is background music playing.
Best wishes
