Hastening the death of a friend or loved one to decrease the long-suffering. Is this a good thing to help the patient commit suicide?




I am pro-suffering.

But even if euthanasia became an option for certain cases..that could clear the way for all kinds of stuff...people with clinical depression and other mental illnesses wanting to be euthanized, and all types of other madness O.o...not sure if that door needs to be opened.

As far as if Euthanasia becoming an option... I doubt that if it did that it could be an option for people with mental illnesses. Obviously if people had mental illnesses they would not be in the right frame of mind to make those kinds of decisions. If people are suicidal [consider cases of clinical depression] and Dr.s try to prevent them from comitting suicide, they wouldn't let them make a decision to do an assisted one... did that make any sense? blink.gif

As for euthanasia being an option for breaking your leg??? c'mon now... euthanasia is generally only something considered by people of GREAT suffering. I don't consider it a double standard if it is right for some situations and not right for others. In the medical field there are always different options offered for varying degrees of problems.
