@SrRochardBunson@universeodon.com @broadwaybabyto@zeroes.ca I can! there's very strict rules around this * there has to be unbearable suffering * there has to be no realistic outlook on improvement * there must be a second opinion from independent doctors in this case, the child had severe epilepsy with multiple attacks per day, and had difficulty breathing. also it was mostly blind and couldn't talk, tho those things in itself of course are not a reason for assisted death; tho I suppose it did add to the unbearable suffering of the child. general consensus (afaik) is that this system is fine; everyone knows that it's a very delicate thing and it is treated as such. I'm sure many a US right wing org will jump on this and frame it as child murder or whatever, but it's absolutely not seen that way by dutch people (until that US propaganda reaches the moron part of our population, after which no doubt there will be protests over here too, that is how it goes these days :blobcatfluffangry:)
