I had this talk with my daughter. I'm a chef. We don't cry. I was a mess at the end, she was crying asking me to promise to not die, I was crying saying that one day I had too... terrible.
My daughter and I have had the death talk in many iterations, so I was unprepared when the latest one went a little off the rails:
Her: Mommy, I don't want you to get old! *starts to tear up*
Me: *thinking I know what's coming* Why not, honey?
Her: *legit crying* You're going to be so disgusting!
On my birthday this year, my granddaughter exclaimed, "Grandma, you're old-old!" I was ok with turning 50 until I heard the horror in her voice. Love the uncensored views expressed by children, don't you?
This reminds me of my granddaughters comment. ... her: "gramma, you have grey hair." Me: "yes, I do, baby girl." Her: " doesn't that mean you're gonna die soon.?"

This comic strip reminds me of George Carlin jokes. So on the nose that it almost hurts. Thanks for a great comic!
