[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think in an ideal world doctors could give their all to everyone. The reality is they are understaffed, very overworked and many are burned out. Since they are not superhuman, would you rather a doctor give more attention to a mother or father with children at home, one of whom may have special needs or medical issues or emotional struggles or put all their energy into giving your elderly parent a few more months?

DP, but obviously my parents are more important to me than some random stranger’s kids. Let’s not start moving eugenics-ward, shall we?[/quote]

NP. There’s something wrong with you if you’d prioritize the life of a 96 year old person (regardless of whether they’re your parent) over the life of a 35 year old parent. Truly. [/quote]

I don’t give a single, solitary damn if some random nobody on the internet “thinks there’s something wrong with me.” You vastly overestimate your own importance. Oh, and I’m a DCUM Mom, so my parents aren’t anywhere near “96,” but don’t let the facts get in the way of you being a judgmental shrew.   :roll: [/quote]
