This is a very immature, narrow, abhorrent and blinkered take. Next time your wife or mother is sick or a “burden” just take them out back and end the problem. Next time you stub your foot, just amputate it (just highlighting your mindset with an extreme take).

The parent stated a fact that is relevant in this context, and they did not use it as a shorthand for cruelty. Your reaction is unreasonable, besides breaking HN rules.

Sure, keep living in a fairy tale then where everyone helps each other and sings cumbaya, you represent suicidal empathy at its finest (taking your approach at an extreme take as you did mine).
