What are your thoughts on it? If you were no longer able to take care of yourself, didn't want your family to see you suffer, would you want to be assisted to die with dignity? Would you want it made legal or not? If you were against it, but a member of your family wanted to die this way, would you accept their decision?

I don't want to suffer but more importantly, I don't want my loved ones to suffer so I guess I'm all for it.

Yup. And it is possible in the NL. Mind you, you have to fill out dozens of forms, need to be accessed by doctors. And of course, it has to be legally valid as well...

So it is not as easy as it is often portrayed to be.

I am for it as long as it doesn't get out of hand. In other words, only used because the person is going to die for sure anyway and soon.
