Re: being pushed to choose death
It's not legal to persuade. The only time it's legally accepted is when one succeeds in suicide. Many elderly people have challenging medical conditions - however they wouldn't be thinking of giving up if they had support from their family. Some don't have close family. For many families it's convenient to put grandpa or grandma into elderly home. What this boils down to is some older people wish to die because of depression. By physically removing them from us we technically already did our part on persuasion. Are there any statistics that compare nr of seniors wishing premature death vs. same 100 years ago, when a typical family was sticking together?
