Is life is a gift to be enjoyed, where can we return it for a refund if we don't enjoy it?

We should never make assisted suicide a legal resort for most 99% of all reasons. Specifically talking about us, any promotion or just mere discussion about euthanasia for aspies at all would be a horrible idea, and it should always be strongly discouraged. Plus, if that ever became a popular discussion of debate, it would only reinforce the depression and anxiety of those who have ASD or Asperger's (any other "issue" for that matter), when we should be trying to improve morale of those with disabilities or other specific needs.

Assisted suicide should be allowed for those who want it. That remains my opinion on the matter.


I agree,
