Yahoo Answers is an online forum for people to ask and answer questions. These questions can be about anything and everything. The “best answer” is determined by the user who asked the question. They judge answers on relevance and helpfulness. Those answering are not always reliable or qualified to answer certain questions. People have so many questions about funeral homes and services they provide. When they turn to a website that doesn’t always provide the most credible responses, they are getting misleading information.
