Nowadays, many people feel stress and fatigue about their lives. Therefore, many individuals are against the legalization of euthenasia, while others approve it. In this essay, I will discuss both views and illustrate that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
On the one hand, euthanasia brings about several drawbacks. One of the most significant disadvantages is that it can have an adverse effect on people who do not have stable mental health. When people have to suffer from difficult circumstances or some chronic diseases they may fell stressed and become pessimistic. If euthanasia is allowed, many people will choose it without thinking carefully. Therefore, euthanasia has a negative effect on people’s thought and the human rights to lives are threatened by rash decisions.
On the other hand, I still believe that people should support euthanasia. First and foremost, individuals can cherish their lives. If they know when they die, they will spend more time on themselves like travelling or pursuing their hobbies and enjoy the moment with their families and friends. As a result, they can make good memories for families and friends and live true to themselves in the last days. Moreover, euthanasia can reduce people’s and family’s pressure. Some incurable diseases lead to patients’ fatigue and family’s financial burden because of intensive treatment therapy. To illustrate, treating cancer diseases may charge an exorbitant fees. Therefore, euthanasia not only helps people release from pain but also reduce financial pressure on family.
In conclusion, although some people worry about the consequences of euthanasia, I believe euthanasia should be legal. However, if governments allow euthanasia, people should think carefully and make a right decision for their lives.
