[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stop worrying about your parents. They are adults and if they get sick it’s their choice. I find it hard to believe that everyone’s parent here is stupid. Maybe they feel fulfilled in their life and would rather enjoy going out in the moment, and if they get sick and die it was a life well lived. [/quote] So, set aside the grief it would cause the kids and grandkids if they die. I'm also distraught about the thought of them dying isolated and alone in a hospital room, not being able to visit them, my child not allowed in the building. It's distressing to think about funeral planning in the midsts of the pandemic. This isn't just like "oh well, they're dead now." Dead/dying elderly parents are a BIG DEAL all the time, but moreso now when things just won't run the way we're used to them running. [/quote]
