what about in the future when someone can talk but is terminally ill, should we now let court precident decide that the persons guardian can decide its time for that person to go, they will now be a burden on society and have no chance of recocery. What if they say no, bad luck now the court ruled yuou have no chance of recovery and are a burdenn on the society, even though u may think your not, your legal guardian has decided and the court backs them up. Sad situation. What about when parents know there child is going to be retarded when it is born, should they be allowed to decide whether he is put to death now because he has no chance of ever functioning normally and will be a burden to society.
