Fairly common sense, imo.

You shouldn't even assume your kids actually like you.

I think that's pretty irrelevant, I personally don't have enough time in the day to take care of anyone else

Few people have.

At the end of the day responsibility for another person only really falls on whoever chose it. Like, if you chose to have kids, you're responsible for them. But kids never chose their parents, thus they aren't responsible for them.

This. Kids have jobs living pay cheque to pay cheque, they won't have time for elder care
