[quote=Anonymous]People without kids plan ahead, we are more pragmatic. So you can do your own cognitive testing and have a Dignitas fund. I have 30K in what I call, "Business Class to Zurich." I will pay for a vacation to Paris afterwards for a young person to come with me if I can't go on my own. You can't put your head in the sand and dump on your kids. If I get cancer I will use medical aid in dying available where I live, not get treatment just to end up with Alzheimer's. Personally I think people with kids are selfish, so not planning ahead and doing what is necessary after you live a full life, should be called out as bad behavior not treated as some sort of virtue. Some of the comments about wishing we had more kids to dump on, or more daughters, actually proves my point. I would sacrifice for my child, if I had one, not ruin their life. [/quote]
