Right to Die

Upon doing research I have gathered research on the controversy of the right to die and the aid in dying. These two could highly result in depression and lifelong anxiety. Freud’s theory of behaviorism dealing with depression and anxiety, the two disorders accounting for the highest proportion of disability adjusted life years among mental illness across the globe (Murray CJ, [8]).

Right-to-die societies represent a new social movement driven by society change. They reflect concerns about the impact of advance in medicine, about the quality of care available for people to end the life and the consequences of demographic changes that lead to the prolongation of dying with high degrees of disability and distress.

Right to die debates intensified during the early part of the twentieth century when eugenics became a subject of public debate in Great Britain and Germany (Kemp, [ 27 ]). Aid in dying is more of a personal choice which values freedom but the controversy would come by society or care delivery system.

Since, the right to die is giving will this in fact be fair to members of the family. Social movements arising from economic-industrial systemic conflicts such as the labor movement is overtaken by movements involving more personal and intimate areas of human existence such as childbirth, sexual, orientation, HIV/AIDS and breast cancer (McInerny, [33], [34]).

While, a rape victim may conceive during the incident a family may decide to terminate due to the mental health of the victim. Breast cancer is curable but stage 4 is usually too late, a family member might not want to see their loved one suffer so if the loved one chooses to go with the right to die it may bring closure to both parties.

Consumer polling demonstrates that seventy-five percent of American adults believe individuals with serious illness should be allowed to terminate their lives (The Harris Poll, 2014). Stipulations are designed to serve as safeguards to the individuals such as he or she must be certified to have only six months left to live, must be mentally competent adult and administer the lethal prescription themselves (Orentlitcher, 2016).

What is the role of providers in taking a stance or ad ministering lethal medications? The American Medical Student Association and the American Medical Student Association have both supported the aide in dying, While the American Academy of Hospice and Palliative Medicine have taken a neutral position when it comes to the aid in dying (Compassion & Choices, 2016).

The aid in dying is a bit complex and controversial. While the aid in dying is a form or individual freedom and belief, that allows honor to a person’s wishes. On the flip side enabling the aid to die may violate religious principles. One must think about diversity, faith, belief, dignity and the individual’s choice.

Why desire and earlier death? Sometimes there is pain at the end of life, and the pain can be unbearable suffering. There is a role played by the body in seeking for meaning in membership of right to die societies is evident through symbolic importance in contemporary western societies. If an older person is exercising leakage body odor may occur. Inability to maintain independence in maintaining bodily hygiene poses a likely threat to social status and person hood (Hockey & James, [22]).

The right to die I choose to be more significant to the world rather than the aid of dying because from a spiritual point, at the end of this life we only have one person to answer to and that’s God. God gives us commandments that we must follow but he also gives us free will. Suicide is totally unacceptable but the right to die I can somewhat agree with.

In a large, comparative survey of doctors in Australia and several Europeans countries the greater support for the assisted dying were mostly non-religious doctors, with the highest levels of support found in countries where assisted dying already legalized is Australia, and these doctors were mostly trained in pain management or palliative care (Moattie, [42]).

Studies of terminal illness and old age refer to ‘burden to others’ in terms of a ‘perception’ felt by study participants. An advanced cancer patient does not want to depend on others for physical care, emotional distress or become a financial burden.

Public acceptance of assisted dying varies between European Countries. Polls of the general public and health care professionals in various countries concerning the desirability of different forms of assisted dying provide relevant for understanding the motivations that lie behind the decisions to join the right-to-die society. In the United States it has been reported that forty percent of people aged sixty-five or over regard the loss of mental faculties as being worse than death. Physicians have endorsed this as an acceptable reason for assisted dying. Since there is a society personal experience questions are asked that involve in caring for the dying or witnessing a difficult death. Also, they inquire about the fears and concerns about the quality of dying that members may have.

The aid in dying argues that adults with serious illness should be allowed to terminate their lives. This gives the lead way to less likely people committing suicide if their loved ones know what is going on because a death request in help is provided.

In conclusion the right to die or aid in dying are complex topics that can both bring up medical, emotional, and spiritual issues. The health and risk of the individual of these acts should both be taking into consideration before a final decision is made.

Hello, Brandi! Thank you for submitting this assignment. The LopesWrite score of 4% is high, but still below the GCU 20% maximum. After going through the paper, I believe you did a good job of providing original content while utilizing your sources. At the same time, the purpose of this assignment is to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of opposing arguments in two specific articles related to a controversial issue. It wasn’t always clear that two specific opposed articles were being contrasted and their arguments analyzed. It seemed to be more of a topical paper related to the issue, rather than an analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of arguments from 2 specific articles. Also, this assignment requires a discussion of logic fallacies in both arguments (based on the list of logic fallacies available through the website provided in the assignment instructions). I’m not seeing this piece. The reference list should have the 2 opposing articles, plus 5-6 scholarly sources to support the content; it is short of this requirement. The paper itself is approximately 250 words short of the minimum, leaving it underdeveloped. There are several APA formatting issues; see feedback provided. Also see Grading Rubric for additional feedback. If you would like to go back and work on this assignment for resubmission based on the feedback provided, I would be happy to allow additional time; please contact me in the Private Forum about this. Thank you again!

Reference list should include the 2 articles which present opposing arguments and 5-6 sources to support the claims. This is a total of 7-8 references; there appears to be only 4.
