[quote=spdrun]People would take preventive care if it’s mostly covered. No one wants to be fat, slow, and ill.[/quote]Believe it or not, some people actually don’t care. If you tell this group, “Those cigarettes (or your swollen legs and ankles) could kill you way before your time,” they’ll say, “Well, if it isn’t that, I could get hit by a Mack truck tomorrow. In the meantime, I’m going to enjoy myself.”
If this group doesn’t want to go to the doctor and wants to eat, smoke, drink and/or drug themselves to death, then fine. I no longer feel it is my responsibility to talk sense into them.
Yes, even if that person is a family member. ALL adults of sound mind and body (NOT legally disabled) need to be personally responsible for themselves.
