I'm an only child and a "late baby", so my parents were a good deal older than was typical of their generation. They both died when I was in my forties.

I'm managing OK, I guess, but although I'm married I'm also childless. That was by choice; but there'll be no passing along of genes to anyone, nothing to mitigate the sense that they (and I) will be forgotten in a generation.

TBH, I try not to think too much about it. It saddens me.

Yeah, I also don't plan on kids, either. So I do wonder what life will be like when I'm older and my family's gone.

This is something I struggle with too. I'm still very young (early 20s) but for many reasons I don't plan on having kids. My parents are much older than typical and my mom isn't in particularly good health. I don't want kids but at the same time I feel like I'll be ending their memory. My biggest hope is to be successful enough that I can leave some kind of legacy for the both of us.

If it makes you feel better, there will probably come a point where humanity will be wiped out or the earth will be uninhabitable or even the most memorable events will be forgotten in the distant future, thereby negating every effort of carrying on a generation or legacy. Dark, I know, but it's kind of freeing.
