There are circumstances in which a DNR makes sense. When a person's condition is incurable, it makes no sense to revive them if they're not going to have a semblance of an existence. I'm not saying a DNR is appropriate in every case. Its a very complex situation. Parents know more than any one else what its like to lose a child. Its heart-breaking and the death of a loved one is never a good outcome. Nevertheless it is a part of life.
