[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone we know my an announcement on social media that in her 30s she was choosing to end her life and waa approved to end her life in another country. Her message posted on social media was confusing and unsettling to pretty much everyone that knew her that we know.

She said she had an incurable disease that wasn't that bad but was choosing to end her life before it got bad because her life wouldn't be the way she imagined it and that we'd never hear from her again.

I think that line sort of stuck with us. That life wasn't worth living if it was as someone less abled or exactly as imagined.

I'm very pro assisted death. I don't understand how we can put animals down and watched loved ones suffer, but this one just feels so...[/quote]

IMO , this is by design.
People like you, OP, likely support assisted death as an option bc you picture great grandma suffering in her final days…and it seems humane.

But the people who pushed this into law are proponents of eugenics and population control. They know this will not only appeal to people who have terminal illlnesses, but they will push it onto younger and younger people (many with mental health disorders) who will accept that this is a solution for a less than ideal life.

[b]There should be a rule no self harm while parents still alive.[/b] Otherwise I have no issue with “younger ppl with mental health disorders” choosing it. 
At least their kids won’t inherit it. But don’t hurt the parents [/quote]

Sometimes the reason someone is like this, is their parents.

I have a friend, that like the PP, has been hanging on by a thread for a few decades now. She has attempted to un-alive herself unsuccessfully multiple times. Her depression, PTSD, DID, etc. was caused by a father who sexually assaulted her when she was young, who then traded her around with others like himself, and even worse (from her perspective) her mother who walked in on her father raping her, but quietly backed away, closing the door behind her. Good Christians. Pillars of the community. Who would even believe her?[/quote]
