Children are being euthanised in Belgium

Killing the elderly, young, unborn, sick and disabled be very afraid when governments around the world have this power, you will be convinced you are doing your country a service by ending your life when you are no longer useful. Life will always find a way..........

When you have either been in that situation or cared for someone who else you can take your opinion and sit on it. No offence.

But there is no slippery slope is there? Not according to Geoff Palmer.Belgium is being held up as a model for us to follow by the pro-euthanasia brigade.When I hear the likes of Geoffrey Palmer advocating for euthanasia I am reminded of what an out of touch fool he is. Foisting the RMA on us was the biggest gift he could give to his legal profession, but not satisfied with that he now campaigns for this. He and David Seymour make strange and unappealing bedfellows.Give Lucretia Seales her legacy they now say, yet when she was alive her supporters maintained it should be seen as a one-off. They may presume us fools, let it not be seen to be so.

It is very dangerous ground. Logans Run comes to mind

I am pro euthanasia as a personal decision, meaning its one that I advocate only for myself, not for other people. The first thing I did, when reading this, is to stop and think what would I do, in this situation as a parent if my child have a condition that may adversely affect them and how would I feel if my child asked for euthanasia....It would be a heart breaking decision to support my kids and stand 1 to what I ask for myself, the right of choice over my own life.... and its too easy to sit as judge, jury and executioner on social media when its not me in that situation......and I can only assume how difficult it must be on the parents and how much strength of character it would take for them to say we accept and agree with our childs choice..... I say that as a child that agreed to their own mothers request to withhold medical treatment and her wish to end her own suffering......
