It only makes sense to call it "self" interest if the object of concern is the "self".......

If a parent takes heroic steps to protect his child, does he do that for the child or does he do that for himself? If the child is dead, it's dead, beyond joy or suffering. It's the parent who has to live on regretting that he didn't protect his kid, doing without his company, not having grandchildren, or someone to look after him in his old age. Nah, no self interest there. ;)
