No they really do not. My Aunt had a very close friend who killed herself after her husband died of a brain aneurysm. It was sudden, and shocking when he went. She had given the air that she was fine, but in the end she was not. She got everything in order, cleaned everything up, and killed herself, leaving my Aunt in charge of their estate. It was all a surprise to my Aunt, who was very upset, very hurt, and very angry. I'm fairly confident that nothing my Aunt or anyone else could have said would have mattered. But the people left behind were definitely broken up, not once, but twice. It made a huge impact on me, that whole incident, and made me appreciate those people who are actually around who actually do have to clean up the mess, not to mention the what ifs.

I dunno. I understand the reasons to jump this ship, but honestly responsibility is what it comes down to, and compassion for those who would have to deal with it. Not to mention the fact that people do not realize that they impact other people that they may never even know about that care for them, or are grateful that they smile at them daily. It just is not that cut and dry.
