Why

I never understood why when someone dies someone always says "they're in a better place". If that's true why don't we just end our own lives now to get there instead of waiting until we are too old to make it to the bathroom intime and are wearing adult diapers?

It's something people say to give comfort because people believe that person no longer suffers.
Ending our lives creates suffering for many others.

@Bobcats does what? Everyone never does anything simultaneously.

Also,'if someone wants to kill themselves to end the "suffering"....isn't it kind of a dick move to stop them? It's like they are saying they should suffer. @Bobcats

@Bobcats okay you are focusing on the latter part of your question. Maybe it is. That wasn't the original start to your question.

details. The more a question isn't answered the more questions it breeds.

@Bobcats I've responded to what you asked in several different ways, maybe drill down on what you really want to know and ask again.
