There's nothing special about me that guarantees "having living parents" but I'm still upset when my parents die. How narcissistic, western, short-sighted of me, I guess?
I really wish I could ascend to your level and never be upset about anything bad that happens, no matter how pointless and obviously unjust.

To be fair, parent and grandparent are never being upset about anything bag that happens to other people. I've met plenty of this type and you can be assured they'll be outraged when it happens to them....though often they're the type born into wealth so all problems are other people's problems.
