I will go to my aunt's funeral. I plan to wear black shorts which are not too short, just above the knees. My mom says it is inappropriate to wear shorts at a funeral. What do you think?

Not appropriate. This country has a tradition of dressing children in shorts and adults in dresses and pants. There is a dignity that comes with dressing up. This isn't a celebratory day, a sun day, a picnic or otherwise. Respect the generation and wishes of the mourners. You get the rest of your whole life to do what you want.
