Not a single one of us chose to be born unto life, not all life is blessing, much of it is curse, and as Buddha might say: life is suffering. Of course, as for myself, I agree with the elders: better never to have been born.
I think that only works on nonreligious folk. I believe most Christians would say life is a gift from God, and suffering justmakes you stronger. Ironically enough, a newspaper lauded a police officer for “saving” a man who was trying to kill himself. Most of society doesn’t agree with us. Even Massachusetts defeated a proposal to legalize euthanasia for extreme cases.
