Of the 175,000 babies born every year in The Netherlands, the KNMG suggests that about 650 might be cases which would be worthy of euthanasia.

Ping!

I say give it about 5 years, over 5,000 per year will be being euthanized.

They always fudge the numbers to get what they want.

“liberals and socialists appear to agree “

Belgians have such a wide array of political choices.

Nah, it’s not euthanasia - it’s just a VERY late term abortion.

First, babies aren’t human beings, then children aren’t human beings.

Then it’s Jews and gypsies, and Katie bar the door.

Seems no one learned anything from World War II.

Doctors should spare parents the ‘abomination’ of seeing their child die in distress, he argues.  It is part of good palliative care.
_______________

This will also ensure that the parents slowly lose mental balance and sanity after deciding to murder their child.

This, in its turn, makes the parents more easily controlled by the state.

legislation to allow children to choose to undergo euthanasia in certain dire cases

How does a child "choose" euthanasia?

Shortly after my marriage we rented an upper flat in Detroit. The girl next door was 10 and born with club feet, dislocated hips and no arms...she was sweet and I watched her play kick ball in the street with the other kids. One day I was hanging clothes in the back yard and she was sitting in her sand box, dressing and undressing her dolls with her toes...Her mother told me they get her artificial arms but she doesn’t like to wear them...nothing in life will hold that girl back. That was back in 1959...She would find a way to do anything she wanted...

It is bitterly ironic that child euthanasia is happening again seventy years later on the very same grounds in two countries that share a common border with Germany.

Nothing ironic about it. Both these countries were relatively receptive to Nazi ideology and indeed the Nazi hegemony. Divisions of Belgians ended up volunteering for the Waffen SS and serving Das Reich on the Eastern Front.

Stone cold killers always have some reason for doing more killing.

A little background here, Nederland and Belgium were woefully short on doctors at the end of WWII so they let these German doctors in without looking at them real hard ~ and they set the ethical standard for Dutch medical practice for the next 70 years ~ and here they are, euthenizing children!

The way this is described by Dutch speakers is that 'our medical system is very modern' ~ and I think that's a separate problem. Too many Dutch are dumb as a board.

At first the “children” will make the choice. Later the “children” will be pressured to do the right thing for the good of the collective. Finally, the KNMG Death Panels will make the economic viability assessments and make the decision to kill them.

“Euthanasia of these children won’t be easy. Some people have taken to hiding them in secret passages in their homes, or even their attics. But the authorities will find them. They always do.”

In the US we already have passive euthanasia of children. If a judge hadn't intervened, that 11 year old girl needing the lung transplant would have died because of cold heartless bureaucracy. Wait until Obamacare kicks in then the NICU’s will be emptied because federal “guidelines” will not allow many high risk infants to get care and they will instead be left to die.

The final scenes of "The Diary of Anne Frank" come to mind.
