this is bull, she said on tv and everything that she wanted to be with her son. she hated her mother, so her mother has no choice in the matter. but i think the real problem is what do you do with the baby. the poor baby is going to be soo messed up. oh well nothing we can do
I think that what was said in your will should be final, because thats waht she wanted done. It is completely unethical to go against someone's will once they are dead. That is completely being dishinest to the person that died. Think about how she would be feeling if she found out that her family went against her will. I think that once they find out who her baby's dad is then they should be given the will.
I think that Anna should be buried next to her son Daniel. Its a horrible thing that she had to lose her son, and now this newborn has no mother. It is all a big tragedy. Why does it seem that whenever someone loses a loved one it starts up a bunch of drama and fighting. Can't people just get along and agree on things?! RIP Anna
i think it is worng and illegal to go against someones will. what is written in the will is what the person wanted so if you go against it then that is illegal. I don't see why her own mother would want to do that to her. would she like it if someone went against her will when she died? no i don't think so then why should someone do it to her daughter.
Ugh, this is all that's been on the news for weeks. You'd think there'd be something of more substance to complain about. If Anna stated in her will she wanted buried with her son, that's where she should be buried. End of controversy.
Just another thing to make a stupid celebrity situation bigger.
People should be buried according to their will, and if Anna wanted to buried by her son, that's what should be done.
Why does this family need to make such a big deal over her burial. They are going through tough times and they should try and get along. (Like that will ever happen)
The bigger problem is what to do with her child. That situation is even more out of control. Get the DNA tests and end it. I know it's not that simple, but the situation needs to be resolved quickly.

Anna wrote in her will what she wanted to be done with and that is what should take place. dont go against someones will becuasue YOU think its better off that way. thats just dumb and wrong.
I think Anna should be buried with her son, because it was in her will and it was obviously what she wanted. But I honestly don't see how it matters where you are buried after you die. I don't think she'll mind much either because, well, she's dead. I personally think it's just another way for the press to get involved and make a big story out of it. They should be more concerned with what happens to the baby.
Anna's family does have the right to decide because afterall they did raise her, however, she was never around her family so they may not know what she truly wanted after she passed. It is ethical to go against someone's will if its for the better of society. Sometimes we cant always please everyone, but if her will isnt harming anyone then dont change what anna wanted. I would not want my family to change where i am burried if i stated it in a will. i obviously put it in my will for a reason and wouldnt want someone to alter that. I think her daugter will recieve her will.
I think that Anna Nicole Smith should be buried with her son, if that's what her will says. I think people are making too big of a deal out of this whole thing, BURY THE WOMAN SHE'S STARTING TO DECOMPOSE! If I were to die tomorrow && i specifically said I want to be buried in a certain spot, I hope my family would up hold that for me. Just do what her will says, && bury her next to her son, that's what she wanted.
I think she should be buried with her son. (she will be, now, it's been decided) but yeah. She had expressed interest in being buried with her son. I think it would be disrespectful and honestly even a little cruel to not honor that very simple request. They let her body rot for 2 weeks before finally coming to the conclusion that they should go with the original idea to bury her with her son. It's not really up to her family at all, especially not her mother or her ex boyfriends, whoever they may be, because she had already said where she wanted to be buried. and what's up with the crazy show of emotion from the judge. gah. psycho.
I think that her will is what she wanted and that everything should go to her child and that her mother should have no choice in where she is bauried because no where in her will does her mother come up so her mother should have no say at all in where she is buried. I think that it would be wrong for the court to go against her will because those are her written words of what she wants done and i personally would want my family to respect me enough to follow my will! I think it is completely disrespectful to not follow her will. I also think that everything should be given to her child because although the child she was going to give everything to is dead she does have another child and so thus they should get everything. As far as the babies father i think the court should just test all the potential fathers agiant the baby and then figure out which one is the father and he sould get the child!
