DZIQ 990 AM– Two Senate committees in the Kingdom of Belgium have voted and approved a proposal to introduce the right to grant euthanasia for terminally ill children. The proposed law, which still has to go to a vote of the full parliament, would make Belgium the first country in the world to remove the age limit for the procedure. Opponents question whether terminally ill children can reasonably decide to end their own lives. Some argue that it’s too much pressure to put on a child.
