actually those single when old

[Emperor_Hippo]

Get married and have kids doesn't guarantee will not suffer from a lonely death.

Best is have enough money to take care ownself, or check into old folk home or get those private home nursing care service. Also if one is rich, usually the kids are "more filial" too

A child's love and sense of filial piety, like respect for a mentor or superior, is EARNED by the parent, not given upon demand.

if a parent simply demands love from child and to demonstrate filial piety simply on the basis of "oh, i birthed, clothed, bathed and fed you. Now you give me money, cloth, bath and feed me.", might as well go rear a dog.

If mentally fit, still fine. Can hire helper, can order food and shopping by yourself.

What happens if got dementia, Alzheimer's?

Ownself check in nursing home.

But rear dog cannot qualify for baby bonus

actually if rich every problem can solve. i witness a lot of people got siblings like no siblings. siblings are more like enemies. your theory does not apply to everybody.

Yeap but for me I'm realistic. I don't view getting married as a solution to my problem nor I believe there is a prince out there. There is no fairytale. For a marriage to work, both parties should be at the right stage of life and right time. Getting married to me is like doing business. There is a chance will huat and there is a chance it will flop.

When I visited my late dad at nursing home, saw a couple. The wifey seems to have severe dementia but her hubby still sit next to her. It’s the presence of each other that brings comfort.

actually those single when old is very cham.
some may say with spouse also no guarantee la bla bla bla but at least they have the option and possibility of not being cham

same to those single child. when old nobody to discuss and need to support both parents
some may say when they young get all the love and when parents old get all the assets la bla bla bla
but imagine u alone in the house nobody to talk to, relatives and friends busy with their family members, facing 4 walls like a siao lang
then go yakun sit there whole day observing people walk up and down like a siao lang
some might say siblings also busy with family or buay song with each other la bla bla bla but at least they might end up close with each other and have someoen to discuss LPA , Will etc.

single kid and no spouse is very cham right? one can come out with whatever excuses but when reality hits it hurts

可怜之人必有可恨之处

That's why when you are still in your 20s, got market from fellow xmm, must faster find someone to settle down and have kids with

There are two sides of the coin and life is unpredictable. It might end up you have to take care of your spouse's unfortunate conditions, and she passed on before you. Then you are back to square one again.

Reminds me of Carl and Ellie from Pixar's "Up", they got married, but had no children becuz of infertility. Then Ellie passed away from illness, leaving Carl alone
