I don't understand why it is so unbelievable for some people to think the little girl might have just wanted to say something to her dad.

When my dad died suddenly I was 20, my brother and sister were 11 and 9 respectively. I gave part of the eulogy and they both read poems. Some people might not believe this but taking part in the celebration of a loved ones life and honoring them with a poem/song/speech/whatever can be really help someone cope with the beginning of the grieving process.

My brother and sister were asked if they wanted to do something at the funeral and they both immediately jumped at the chance. I don't see why it is so hard to believe this is the case for this little girl.
