hi today there is debate training too, as u guessed(:

topic was THIS HOUSE WOULD BAN EUTHANESIA
-'mercy' killing
-painless quick dying through injection
-patient is terminally ill
-dr death
-murder

1. better to die than to suffer
2. live longer
3. wait for possible cure
4. doctor's role--prevent suffering OR to save lives ( you all decide)

rules:

-3 person per grp

-presentation/your opinion

-3-5minutes(:

there is a debate going on to show a real debate: of euthanesia too(:

ms wong came to the classroom b4 the debate started, which kinda shocked me..haha=D
well, but she went away slightly b4 the debate had ended, about 11am. l0l!!

so our grp chose to BAN EUTHANESIA

some of the points:

-if euthanesia is allowed, doctors are encourage not ot give the best medical care and attention to the patient

-when there is an extremely painful disease, it would result ion euthanesia, patient waould want to end their lives

-patient is afraid of of financial burden, medical care is expensive, so it would lead to euthanesia, not caring of their own lives

-patient may not able to afford euthanesia

-there would be potential abuse of euthanesia

-take euthanesia against their own will

-if euthanesia is legalised, government would then not pay attention to it

medical care withdrawn without consent

-euthanesia could be banned in stages, so the government can handle it better

-patients could be pressurized to to convinced them to take euthanesia

-alternative for taking euthanesia: painkillers to help them cope with their illness((:

all the grps have to go and present it): haha

bye!!
