I suspect that the act of having children causes most people to care less about their own wellbeing, and more about the wellbeing of their children.

As thus, I intuitively find it a good idea for anyone reading this to sign up for cryonics before they have children (conditional on them already being interested in signing up), in case their desire to be cryopreserved dwindles after they have children of their own.
