After the police bring news?
to your home of a tragic accident they seem to insist that you are not left alone. 'You should be with someone. A friend? Relative?' Who says you should be with someone?
This only adds pressure to the weight of sorrow that you have just been asked to bear. What if there is no one and even if there were, you would never express your feelings to that person anyway, even if you allowed that person into your home?
Do the police respect the fact that you wish to remain alone and eventually go away unsatisfied, or would they then impose an liaison officer to babysit you? Surely, you must be able to reject all of these proposals and, if necessary, seek legal advice against such intrusion? I am sure it is well-meant, but they must respect your preference to be alone come hell or high-water?

They are worried that the person would do something to themselves. Sometimes when people are grieving they don't think straight and may try to hurt or kill themselves. They respect the fact that you wish to be alone but its for the persons safety and sometimes the grief doesn't come right away so they want you to be with a loved one to help you cope.
