[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So are people supposed to have children in the hopes of having someone 'check up' on them when they're 85? It makes more sense to remain childless and use all that money that one saved and put it towards a nursing home or hospice should the time come. Unless you're Asian, expecting your children to be at your beck and call when they're thousands of miles away is naive. It's also unfair to burden adult children with eldercare when they didnt ask to be born. [/quote] Yes. Why do you think people had litters of children in the past? For labor and care. Traditionally, the youngest daughter was supposed to stay unmarried and take care of the parents. [/quote]
