Unsure?

My grandfather died yesterday evening. He had been in hospital. My mum hadn't been letting me invite anyone over, just in case we would have to cancel. So do you think it would be offensive to her if i asked someone over this week?
I don't want to upset her.

She might take offense to it as she's grieving and probably won't want any company around to her in the state she's in. Maybe give her some time to get herself back on track
Otherwise if you ask her tell her you would like to have a friend over because you too are grieving and need somebody to help you through it and cope... She might not mind but then again if I was her and I just lost my dad I wouldn't really want anybody in my house
But it never hurts to ask :)

Thanks. Good advice.

I say don't invite anyone over right now. This is an extremely tough time right now for your mom! She really needs to be with all family members that she has to help her get through this, so you going off to play with your friends is not a good time. As a teen we grow up and usually it's about me, me, me, but right now you need to think about your mom and grandpa. Sorry for your loss.

I've had a similar issue happen to me. Not exactly the death of a family member, but it did cause turmoil at home. I texted a friend and got him to drop by one night, and I just met and spoke to him at the gate. Even though we spoke for hours there, I was never too far away and no one ever intruded into our "personal space".

The best you can do in times like these are stay close to your mum, but give her enough space to "breathe" and go through the grievance process. You need to give her space, let her know you're coping, and that you'll be there for her to see her through too. There's nothing more comforting than that!

Ask her politely. Don't assume an answer. Just ask and wait for a response. I don't think it would be a big deal, but i don't know your mom.

Having friends and family around you is part of a grieving process so I guess it'd be fine, just make sure you show your mum that you're mature around the whole situation if possible.

Thanks. My mum actually asked me if i wanted anyone over.
