As I was surfing around on YouTube, I stumbled across a video that contained valuable information about artificial intelligence ("AI"). Pam is an influencer who has a YouTube channel named "Solo Second Half Porch," and she did a video about how AI is being misused to post videos that misrepresent elderly people falling into conflicts with their own adult children. Here is her video below.
Pam Warns That AI-Generated Videos Are Giving Elderly People Harmful Advice Meant To Alienate Them From Their Adult Children
I find a large amount of wisdom to Pam's warnings about these AI-generated videos. I have noticed a whole slew of such videos that show AI-generated elderly people encouraging real elderly people to disinherit their adult children, even if their children are struggling financially due to no fault of their own.
These AI-generated videos get me so angry that I have published articles urging every American to contact their elected officials to ask them to pass forced-heirship laws in their respective state jurisdictions here in the United States so that nobody will be able to cut their own children out of their will.
There has been way too much child abuse and incest going on in our nation for decades, and abusive parents simply shouldn't have the right to disinherit their own kids if they are the ones who sabotaged their kids' lives in the first place and pscyhologically crippled them from being able to be financially prosperous. I've noticed this problem particularly with adult children from Generation X. Below is a video of a man from that generation who suffered violence at the hands of his parents.
YouTuber The Semi-Retired Samurai Decided Not To Father Children To Break The Cycle Of Abuse In His Family
The irony of this trend among Gen Xers is that many of them end up having to take care of their aging parents once their parents' health starts to break down regardless of whether or not they are estranged from them. What is so outrageous is that this same scenario could just as easily materialize if the parents were actually the ones to go no-contact with their adult children. Below is another video in which YouTuber The Semi-Retired Samurai talks about these same concerns.
YouTuber The Semi-Retired Samurai Explains How No-Contact Adult Children Can End Up Caring For Their Aging Parents Anyway
YouTuber The Semi-Retired Samurai's parents were baby boomers. Many people from his generation have parents from the Silent Generation, and they can be equally as disgraceful parents as baby boomers, if not worse.
No generation appears to be immune from this situation. People from Generation Z and the Millennial Generation are confronting these same problems, although not in as large numbers at the current time in that many of them still have parents that are not yet elderly.
The elephant in the room here is that if a parent beats or rapes their own child and then pushes that child away after that child reaches adulthood insofar as they become estranged, then that parent has unrealistic expectations in turning to that son or daughter to take care of them in old age. If that son or daughter caves in and does take care of them in old age, it should be completely illegal for that parent to cut that adult child out of their will.
Also, you may have noticed that abusive parents always seem to live well into their mid-to-late nineties, if not into their hundreds. On the other hand, the kind, generous, loving parents always seem to die in their sixties. It's as though there is some kind of evil force hovering over all of us.
Our nation has enough problems with poverty and homelessness. Someone who suffered any form of abuse at the hands of their parents is more likely than not to struggle financially throughout their adult life. Once their estranged parents want them to take care of them, perhaps their parents will have enough money so that their adult children don't have to worry about finances when they get saddled with that same responsibility.
Nonetheless, taking care of an elderly parent is a great amount of responsibility in any event. It is particularly stressful if you are a man and you suck at cooking, because you can really begin to feel as though you're being absorbed into a never-ending prison sentence if you have to spend seven nights a week in the kitchen, dealing with all the aggravations and dangers of the stove and the oven.
I don't know who is posting these AI-generated videos on YouTube advising elderly people to disinherit their children, but it needs to stop. Child abuse and incest are serious problems in our nation, and nobody needs to be encouraging abusive parents to disinherit the same people they victimized as children once those kids of theirs are adults and the parents are elderly.
Then again, perhaps these AI-generated videos on YouTube are a wake-up call for all of us to contact our elected officials throughout the United States and get them to enact laws that would make it illegal for any parent to disinherit their children under any circumstances. I have an aunt who married into my family. She has stolen assets from other members of my family whenever the issue of inheritance has surfaced upon the death of any elderly family member.
I don't claim this woman as my aunt. She is now in an assisted-living facility, and her mind is going on her. She isn't really old enough to have dementia or Alzheimer's disease, but I guess that karma can be a real bummer. She certainly deserves whatever bad things come her way.
Her mother disinherited her. I would never wish anything like that on my worst enemy. However, she was cruel to her sister. If she had treated her sister with greater respect, her sister probably would have split all the assets in half with her that she inherited from their mother. In any event, I still strongly believe that our nation needs forced heirship laws in every state jurisdiction.
If you don't live in the United States as I do, then perhaps you live in a nation that has forced heirship laws; and if that is the case, then don't ever take those same laws for granted. In our nation, people have a way of finding out that their parents have disinherited them when those same people are in the worst of financial circumstances.
