Euthanasia or Youth-anasia BELGIUM PASSING NEW LAW TO KILL CHILDREN!

CNN) -- A controversial bill that would extend the right to request euthanasia to children suffering terminal illnesses and adults with dementia cleared a vote in a Belgian Senate committee Wednesday.
The panel voted 13-4 to allow minors to seek euthanasia under certain conditions, the communications director for the Senate, Patrick Peremans, told CNN.
The vote is one stage in a legislative process -- the bill must clear other hurdles before it becomes law.
Belgium passed legislation in 2002 allowing voluntary euthanasia for adults.
Changes to the law now being considered by lawmakers would allow under-18s to request an end to their life only under stringent guidelines.

Dr. Kenneth Chambarae, who is part of the end-of-life research group at Brussels' Free University, specializing in the impact of legalized euthanasia, said the bill explicitly states that it would be possible only for competent minors suffering unbearable physical pain from a serious physical illness without prospect of improvement to request euthanasia. This is different from adults, who can also request it if they are suffering psychologically.
Chambarae argues the debate in Belgium is more one of principle than anything else -- that very few children would ever choose euthanasia but that the law now discriminates against them.
