I never expected to even live this long. I used a lot of drugs over the years so I always thought I would just die face down in my own puke some day. I’ve lived a life of debauchary in the music business that most would say is less than wholesome but I do love to engage with this site as it reminds me of the good times. How long do people want to live and do you still want to be horny while burdening your grandkids with your bed pan????? |

Not planning to have any kids, nevermind grandkids.
Original plan which still stands - when waking up every morning becomes an agony because of unfixable health problems and looking after myself isn't an option any more - some magic potion will be taken to help me go high five the big magic man in the sky.
Until then - fuck the rules as world is my oyster

When I was 30 I was thinking the same way, now I know a lot of things can change in 20 years. Anyway you're right in the way to enjoy your life in full swing, so did I and still do and hopefully many years to cum. |

I’ll be 40 soon and only sensible things happen now. Especially those around me. Talking about fucking bullshit I have no interest in. Then again I usually avoid any situation which requires empathy. I’m not a big fan of my species and normally my agenda is to exploit their naivety |

Awww when I clicked on the headline I thought it was about age gap relationships so was really curious... Lol
As for life expectancy I've no real ball park figure but if I ever came a burden to others through illness or disability I'd feel horrible about thing then down as a carer. |

My life expectancy is probably over 90, given my genes. Realistically, quality of life deteriorates significantly beyond the age of 80 for the majority(and yes, there are exceptions, I have a 95 year old aunt who is physically and mentally fitter than the average 70 year old) so I will be voting yes when the referendum on euthanasia and assisted suicide comes along. I would hate for any of my children to have to bear the burden of looking after me for years. |

When your times up it's up live for the moment, often see people my age talking about pension pots, the government already has us work until 70 years old which is an average males life expectancy then when we hit 70 what happens, we spend our hard earned money on slippers, newspapers and maybe a fruit scone at the weekends to bring back those rock n roll memories of working ourselves until we are almost dead, sorta makes me think nah fuck that option. |

Average male life expectancy in Ireland is 81.5 years. I don't know whether you'll see that as good news or bad though. |

I will live until I die. I probably could live longer if I drank less, did more exercise, and ate a bit healthier. But I’m happy with my lifestyle and happiness is the most important thing |

Live life to the full but try and stay healthy. You will get more years of fun out of it. Eat well, sleep well, laugh alot and avoid people who bring you down. Stay active and if you are not start today. Smile and most will smile back at you.
Take chances. Today is chilly but I'm still gonna be brave and adventurous and wear my shorts!

I always believe that like your bag of lettuce in the supermarket, we each have a "BEST BEFORE DATE' and a "USE BY DATE"
...if you abuse your body you might reach your BBD but if you take care of yourself and live a fulfilling life, you could reach your UBD
There is the old saying "Dead at 30, buried at 70" meaning some people go through the motions but don't live much of a life. Myself, I hope to live to a decent age, but quality of life has to come first  |

To me it's not the age but the quality off life. When the point comes I can't look after myself, well I won't be a burden on my kids or partner. It will be time for some tablets or a pillow over the head. But until then live live and be happy. fergal |

Maybe one of my fave movie quotes seems very apt to where this post has taken so many posters here.
..."EVERYMAN DIES.....NOT EVERYMAN REALLY LIVES "...Braveheart
....we all have certain " time windows " for different parts of our lives where if the certain things that can be done in each " time window " aren't done ..the opportunity is gone and gone for ever....like if a guy wants to run a marathon in under 2 hrs 30 min ,if he can't do it at the peak of his natural youth and strength 18/35....he's not going to do it in his 40's up...we all have a " time window " and what we put in or do in the window at the different stages of life is up to ourselves..live it while it's there .. |

"Every single person I know who said they didn’t want kids regretted that choice. Just sayin
Lots of people who had kids regretted that choice too "
How our grown up children treat us when they left the nest its only our fault or success 
Its the parents role to teach respect, be thankful and care for others.

Agreed but I can't understand why someone would genuinely regret having a child, ya they might joke about it but there's an unconditional love there and a parent will do anything for their child. |

No its not I've friends who never wanted kids adamantly were against it but having kids was the best thing that can happen. I don't know how you can regret creating a life that offers such a connection?
Yes I know there are people who can't form connections with their offspring but this is a psychological problem and extremely rare so I don't understand how your average person would regret bringing a child into the world |

I do get what Casey is saying. Thing you're both talking about different things. There are those who have found having kids was not what they wanted. It interfered with their other goals and aspirations and having kids didn't surpass those. Those aspirations may or may not have been attainable or the level of success or pleasure they may have brought might have been misguided, however they may still hold them higher than the pleasures of which having children brought, and so have regrets. |

Human emotions are a bit more complex than that, just because you feel emotion "x", it doesn't automatically preclude feeling another emotion which may appear contradictory. |

exactly, or they may find that parenting is personally a struggle for them due to their own psychological make-up or events in their past. |

Following on with the OP title and with this subject, I'm going to something which may cause some emotive responses.
If I had Tits and a foufou it would get lauded however what Smokey said touched a nerve and I also feel strongly about it. It's probably the most important job/role any of us can ever be asked to do. It's what ultimately defines the culture we live in whether, micro, local or societal. It's the one place we as parents can have the biggest impact for good or bad. The secret is to never give up. If we make a mistake, the mark of a great parent is to try to sort it.
Fathers day is coming up. Some will celebrate it others will want to blot it out. Maybe we need to rethink and some of those issues sorted out and make a positive change, firstly in ourselves towards the dad that wasn't there. We all carry things over, even the negative things we think we've brushed under the carpet. They still have negative influences
upon how we are parenting without us even realising. You could become a better dad by trying to reach out even in the pain. You're teaching one of the most valuable lessons your kids can learn and that is reconciliation. My dad taught me a lot, was brilliant, is still brilliant. We disagree, we have differences but one lesson he taught me consistently was that of reaching out and sorting it.
Drops the Mike.

The most important things my parents taught me was never drop litter, respect others, always stand up for yourself, and for me , most importantly; never put yourself first and always help others less fortunate than you. |
