Would you give up 10 years of your lifespan.. 20 will be added to parents

If they are good years yes.

If they are years of being senile and shiting in a diaper, no.
^this

Need to know they are getting 'healthy years'. If they are just going to hold on 10 extra years with dementia and i am dying young and healthy then no. But if they are getting healthy years than that 40 year gain for my ten year loss is no brainer.
 
Yes. Only reason I even gaf about living or dying is my mom anyways. I'd have killed myself long ago if she was gone. Just cant be so cruel to destroy her by doing that
 
Yeah.

You keep saying pornographic beauty but you're 2/2 on the girls not being pornographic.
 
My mother died at 84. She was not doing well. She would not have enjoyed another 20 years.
 
no.

my grand parents lived until their mid 90's .

I don't think my parents would want to live to the age of like 120.
 
My parents would slap me upside the head if i did that.
 
For parents, probably not. For my kids in the future, hell yes.
 
For my parents or me, nope. For my child. Yes. Only thing I ever regret is not appreciating my grandparents enough, I'm Filipino/Mexican and only my grandfather is left from the Filipino side. As I'm getting older my daughter and my grandfather is having a better relationship than me and my father. In grateful he is alive to be there for her at this time. When it's time for him to go I hope she learns more and passes it on.
 
No. Would not do it.

At the age my parents have reached, adding 20 more years on top of whatever they would naturally have left...

Just unnecessary.

And the idea of giving time to my kids sounds awesome, but if they are fated to love long lives, then that's also a dumb deal.

It's boring, but natural lifespan suits me fine. Who wants to be 110 years old?

If I had lost a parent young, then it would probably be a different story.
 
Can I give 5 years of my life for 10 more for my mom only?
