The Right of Death

[decswxaqz]

What happens if someone is classified as mentally ill??? What if they say "I want to die"??? You know it might not be a real wish but they keep insisting.
I have first hand experience (not personally me but friend). If they want to commit suicide, I should let them? Even though there could be happy times after it? I'm afraid that I can't let that happen.
Think if your parents wanted that? You would let them gladly/happily?

Sorry to be so morbid but that's what this topic is about.

no you must not let him to suicide, because they have to think about and solve his problems that makes him thinking about this

no, you should not have the right to take your life. You have the right to join the army get shot, and die though . There always have to be limitations with what someone can do with their lives. Otherwise, someone will either want to be a world conqueror, kill themselves and others in the process, or regret it just before dying but powerless to come back. My Dad took his life 4 or so years ago, its not fun, trust me. While I'm not emotionally battered etc, I obviously still miss him. But these things happen, you cannot control ones fate all the time. Still, no one should be given the right to or have to consider suicide.

edit: I have more to say having read the rest of the thread. Now, everyone does have the option to take their life in this example and a few others. If your sick and your going to die, you have the option to end your suffering depending on the severity. Now, you don't have the option to take your like because your broke or something. Personally, I think none of you should be commenting on this so freely and surely because some of your have never lost a loved one to suicide. Some of your might have but a lot of you seem to have made up your mind. Its a lot different when you get driven to school one day and everything seems normal and suddenly your playing with your friends in PE and you get a call from your mom like "I can't find dad, he hasn't come home from his walk yet" or something and then you get phone calls for a hospital about a unidentified man and the cops come etc *rambles* (kinda based what happened to me, in different words, but I guess there were signs, there are always signs >_<).

People are weak... too attached to those around them. Death is a part of life, if it drags you down, you are flawed beyond repair. Live your life, no one that ever dies wants others to suffer for them; physically or emotionally.

Gotien is right for a change... people ARE weak...that's why religion was born, but, that's another topic...

[Gotien]

Ironically enough, as figurative that last part was ("but, that's another topic...") It is quite literal, there is a long thread on Religion, I just don't feel like searching for it right now. <shrugs>

Lazy bugger...oops, did I type that?

[Gotien]

Now that was spam.. so much spam I can't bear to think of it <turns away from the post> Anyways, I think that death is necessary, let people smoke, f*ck, chew, smack and what not. If it doesnt hurt others and it makes them happy, go for it! Sheesh, when you fear something, it just becomes that more unbearible to see around you..

Hmm... I believe I've never heard you speak so much crap, Gotien...
