It's nice that you feel this way about your parents and grandparents, but this is a nightmare scenario for me. I hope I die suddenly before I have to rely on anyone else to support me in any way, and if I'm being honest, I hope my own parents go out that way too.
- lotsofpulp 6y agoThere’s different levels of support. Shopping for groceries or helping your elders do laundry is different than changing their diapers and spoon feeding them. Of course, it depends on the individual’s personalities and whether or not they can accept the compromises of living near or with each other. I would want to commit suicide before I subject my kids or grandkids to permanently doing basic tasks like cleaning up my bodily functions or spoon feeding me, but I certainly don’t mind helping my elders with various tasks every now and then.
- exolymph 6y agoMight be best to make the suicide plans now. Do be sure to inform your parents that you'd rather not help them through their elderly infirmity.
