“I have never met an old person without kids that was happy.”
I’m 75, without kids (by choice), and am happy.”
” they have no one at all to take care of them or who cares for them.”
You can’t count on children to care for you in old age. Hubby volunteered for Hospice for a few years. The patients often had children living less that 20 miles away and NEVER visited, called, or checked on their parents. SO sad
I am glad for you and if your health deteriorates I hope you still feel the same.
