    I’ve met plenty of others that have seen mental illness wreak havoc on their families. Sure my experience is anecdotal but wtf else can i draw experience from? Make all my decisions based on probabilities and just hope for the best? Congrats on having a bunch of normal functioning family, sounds nice 😊

      Guess you never had stats explained to you?

      My first message was general. It doesn’t apply to your case? Fair enough, you’re in a minority. It doesn’t make me wrong and it’s not an attack against you and you can push the reflection a bit further and tell yourself “Although it’s not the case with me, most people are close to others in their family so I guess in most cases it’s a form of support when aging that people don’t get if they don’t have kids.”
