Professor Bobby Duffy worked on the study, and said that millennials have ‘become much more sceptical about prioritising work as they’ve made their way through their career’.

      Only selfish people ask someone else to suffer longer because they’ll be a little sad without them.

          If you’ve read the post, he has a decent line of illness that will make him incapable of taking care of loved ones, so to ease their burden he will cause sadness instead. Which one is better depends on who you ask. I hate feeling like a burden and I’m sure most people do, but sometimes it’s necessary to stick around, but that is far from always the case.

      I appreciate the sentiment in point two. I feel similar when others speak of suicide. In this case I think of this more as death with dignity for the terminally ill. And it’s years away, so don’t lose sleep over me.

      Also, i don’t get the pushback you’ve received for wishing someone will continue to live. It’s a weird hill to die on (heh, puns)

      Anyway, thanks for the kindness and have a good life
