Randall,

Being human.  That's what entitles them.

When the time comes, you'll have the opportunity to ask God for her opinion on that.

"Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others,
faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. "  1 Peter
4:10

Let me try it on you this way: if all mankind are brothers (and Christian
doctrine can't be clearer on this), then why shouldn't familial
responsibility fall on all of us to care for all of us?  Abandoning a child
in the African bush to starvation is no different from allowing one's own
brother or sister to starve.  Would you let a sibling starve, even if they
didn't do anything to deserve your aid in your eyes?  I sure couldn't.  And
the failure which we all have, myself included, in refusing to truly regard
all humans as our equal siblings under God is sin.
