_Sorry folks, but this is another pointed hypothetical inspired by this just coming up for a mind-boggling second time within the past 3 years amongst just the people I know in real life…_ Let’s imagine for a moment that you are right now between 65 and 82 years old. You have one or two adult children who are roughly 30 years younger than you. You haven’t been feeling well lately, so you seek medical attention and learn you are in kidney failure, and must start dialysis right away. If one of your children is a match, would you accept a (live-doner!) kidney from them? _Poll ([view on site](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/polls-only-no-discussion/953642/611))_ ---
