With the discussion of whether assisted dying should be allowed in Scotland befing brought up again, I was wondering what other people thought of the topic.

Do you think people should be allowed to choose when to end their own life?

What laws need to be put into place to prevent abuses in the system?

How do we account for people changing their mind or mental decline causing people to no longer be able to consent to a procedure they previously requested?

    It’s difficult to explain sometimes, but it’s not the pain that throws me off concept-wise, it’s the personhood aspect of it, in the sense that if you’re deemed a proxy and your obliged act in question is to be so absolute as to remove them from the world, then you must ask yourself, how absolute are you?
