[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is okay to euthanize. If I were in this situation where someone had to deal with my incontinence I’d want to check out. You have given her a good life. [/quote]

You people don't seem to understand the ills of old age. Some perfectly intelligent and intelligible people need diapers for quite a few years at the end of their life. My MIL is one. Don't equate incontinence with euthanasia.

Are you talking about your human MIL and people or are we talking about dogs? I thought it was the latter so not sure how your comment pertains at all to the conversation unless...your MIL is a dog?[/quote]

Agreed, these comparisons to elder humans are ridiculous, unnecessary and cruel. Dogs are not humans.

And as I stated above, plenty of very elderly humans who are fully dependent on other humans beings to diaper them and clean their privates are profoundly depressed by that reality. Some may not care at all, but some do very much. So even if the conversation *was* about humans, your MIL is not the proxy for all elderly human beings. [/quote]
