My parents had discussed death. At their old age. After it was found that my fathers haemoglobin production was almost nil. The doctors could not figure out why and my father knew he would not be able to survive for long on borrowed blood. So my parents made plans for whoever survived. But why is it that we dont plan for eventualities at a younger age? My husband being a man of my choice, I had imagined a list of things that could go wrong in my marriage and had sort of worked out what I should do if something did. Thankfully my imaginations remained just that.
When my husband was in hospital recently, I wondered why I hadnt thought of sickness. We had never planned for our sons future, if something were to happen to either of us. A friend in Canada told me that they have to prepare a will for their children, mentioning to whose care they should go, in case of an eventuality. I dont know if any such law exists here. So young or old, I think its our responsibility to decide a future course of action especially when the wifes not working - regarding the children, financial position, place of residence, etc. in case of an emergency.

I think as responsible adults, we should plan for such eventualities in life. Whether it is ALMIGHTY or DESTINY that controls, I think we mortals must also do our bit. We owe that much to our loved ones.

JS, we can not plan for anything and everything. We should listen to advises/guidance from our family elders. That should not become a habit. We also should realise our responsibility and start advising. For that, we need to search for WISDOM. It never happens in one day, it comes by our experience.
We should plan for things what is in our hands reach. But there are many things which we could not control. Leave it. YES, it is necessary to educate our loved ones to approach in case of emergency. But always remember, Our Loving God sends his angels when we are in problems. We could not understand how things happen. But it will happen only because of Lord God.
Hence please try and get the WISDOM from our Lord God, Leave it to HIM and he knows to lead you in all paths of LIFE.
