Yesterday was the 20th anniversary of the promulgation of the euthanasia law in the Netherlands. Despite the fact that this practice is fully accepted by the majority of the Dutch people, the debate continues. It is actually, not more about the convenience of a law that regulates euthanasia, but about its extension: is this law also meant for people who feel tired of life and consider that their life is already “over”? And what to do with psychiatric patients and people with dementia? Can it also be administered to children?
