Yeah! Thoughtless liberals do this kind of stuff all the time. Let's act like thoughtless liberals!

Why not? Does hospice prevent people from bringing water to their other patients? Wasn't the order just against the _feeding tube_ and not the food and water (I could be wrong on this, haven't read the court order)?

Similarly, I believe He is equally displeased by other motivations.

I'm sure those children have His full blessing.

Mmm... I saw the video of that on live TV. They weren't doing anything against the law... were they?

Trespassing is illegal.

According to the text of the article, the father was arrested with the children. The mother was not. Me, I would've left them on the sidelines with their mother.

Mr Schiavo has had strict orders in place that nothing that could be construed as "rehabilitation" be done to his "wife". This included at one point treatment for a urinary tract infection which took a court order telling him to allow the treatment.

He's banned her parents from bringing video camera's into her room and at other times banned them from coming to see her.

Call me a bad father if you must...but my son...who is a Boy Scout working on his Eagle Scout...who is very involved in his Church youth group came to me and said he wanted to do something like this...knowing the risks...I'd be very hard pressed to tell him no.

I will have to turn on CBS Nightly News tonight so I can hear an ethicist tell me if this is right or wrong.

"You grossly overestimate the maturity of children."

Yeah, you're right. Freddy Adu should have to wait until he's 21 before he plays for D.C. United.

I suppose you don't think individual kids have individual levels of maturity? I thought your FR page said you were pro-individualism? Maybe you think you are, but you're not.

It depends. Looking at this situation, I'd probably tell the 10-year-old boy he's too young. If he's 13 or 14, I might take him with me.

I certainly wouldn't allow the 14-year-old girl to do it. But, I tend to be rather old-fashioned that way.
