Yes, but only if there is no chance they will survive their illness and only after a psychological examination to show they fully understand this choice and they should be allowed to refuse artificial life support

Yes, but only if there is no chance they will survive their illness and only after a psychological examination to show they fully understand this choice and they should also be allowed to refuse artificial life support

What are the potential societal implications of legalizing assisted suicide for those who are terminally ill?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

If you were to put yourself in the shoes of someone with a terminal illness, how might your perspective on assisted suicide change?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

Do you think that pain and the right to avoid it should factor into the legalization of assisted death for terminally ill patients?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

How might cultural or religious backgrounds shape one's opinion on whether assisted suicide should be a personal choice?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

What are your thoughts on the balance between the sanctity of life and alleviating unbearable suffering when no cure is available?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

If a friend were suffering terminally, what advice would you give them about the choices they have at the end of their life?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

Can you imagine a situation where ending one's own life might feel like an act of compassion rather than a crime?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

How might your personal values or beliefs influence your stance on whether individuals should have autonomy over their own life and death?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

What do you think about the idea of having the right to choose how one's life ends, especially in cases of extreme, untreatable pain?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

How would you feel if you had the power to end a loved one's suffering through a decision, knowing their condition is irreversible?

Yes, but only if there is no chance they will survive their illness, and only after a psychological examination to show they fully understand this choice. I personally disagree with euthanasia, but it should remain a personal choice.

 @92MKPWZ from California answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but only if there is no chance they will survive and show full understanding of their choice.

 @8YX4JT9 from Texas answered…2yrs2Y

If life is only causing a patient pain, then the decision for them to end their life is morally okay.

 @6HM8ZBP from New York answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but only if there is zero chance of recovery, and they are found to be in a sound psychological state following an examination

 @8X3KQBN from Nevada answered…2yrs2Y

No, I think instead they should be helped any way they can and prevent suicides if possible.

 @89CDM9C from Kansas answered…2yrs2Y

Only in cases where the patient is facing an imminent painful death.

 @lucasnat0r from Illinois answered…3yrs3Y

Yes but only in cases where survival is impossible and life is unbearable.

 @8TP6QKSanswered…3yrs3Y

No, but they should not be prevented from ending their own lives without assistance

 @8SLRGMY from Oklahoma answered…3yrs3Y

I say yes if that’s what they really wish and how they went to leave the world. It just depends on the person.

 @8QW98GR from Nebraska answered…3yrs3Y

yes but as long as it is completely their choice and no one is indirectly forcing them

 @8QG5XSM from Indiana answered…3yrs3Y

 @8PZ7LSP from Indiana answered…3yrs3Y

Even though I disagree with it, allow them to do it if there are no other options

  @buday4vancouver from Washington answered…3yrs3Y

Not assisted, if they want to do it themselves, up to them. Leave some cleanup money behind.

 @7GLVLCC from Colorado answered…3yrs3Y

 @NotShaggy3 from Texas answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but only if they go through a psychological examination to show they fully understand the choice.

 @giannadavison888 from Pennsylvania answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but only if there is no chance they will survive their illness or they are in extreme pain.

 @8H2G98J from Pennsylvania answered…3yrs3Y

This is something I don't feel comfortable having a strong opinion on.

 @8L2DQDJ from Pennsylvania answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but only if the medical professional also consents to performing the procedure.

 @8FB9K6P from Missouri answered…3yrs3Y

 @8DP6P7F from Massachusetts answered…4yrs4Y

They should in theory, but right now we don't have the resources to morally do this, some people end up having to go earlier than they wanted because they may no be able to give consent at the time that they intended to die.

 @8CYG8KL from North Carolina answered…4yrs4Y

While it is inhumane, it is more inhumane to let someone suffer in the hellish abyss that is terminal mental illness, if there is a chance they can be saved, then we should try for a certain amount of time, the amount of time depends on the illness, but if it's impossible, then don't let them suffer.
