[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Childless people like my Aunt have [b]siblings and nieces and nephews[/b][/quote] But my grandmother's siblings are all dead. And do nieces and nephews really provide the same kind of loving care that a child would? [/quote] [b]Is there any guarantee your kids will do this? No. [/b] Do you people have kids just so you hopefully have someone around to wipe your a** in your old age?[/quote] There's no guarantee, but I do think most people can feel reasonably confident that their kids will look after them at least to a certain extent. And even if they're wrong and the kids do nothing, they've still be given a few decades of having false comfort about what the end of their lives will be like. I think it would suck to have to worry about this for 40 years. [/quote]
