Mighty you and you alone.

Is that why you think people should have kids? So there's someone who feels compelled by guilt and familial obligation to show up? I can tell you it doesn't work like that. Having kids is no guarantee you won't die alone, and being childfree has nothing to do with how many people show up to care for you because they love you and want to care for you.
