Euthanasia

    At the moment, euthanasia is legal in some countries like Holland and Belgium, although this controversial topic is causing great debate amongst many people. 

    One of the main arguments for euthanasia is  it is wrong to keep people alive by using life support machines for example. In addition, it gives people the ability to die with dignity and relatives don't have to see their family member suffering a slow and painful death.

      On the other hand, people might recover from an illness or a cure could be found. Furthermore, the number of murders could rise with family members wanting to get their hand on inheritances. Euthanasia  could also be used against a person's wishes and their organs sold to make a profit.

       All in all, I am in favour of euthanasia as I think it is very hard for families and friends of a terminally ill patient who has no hope of getting better, to have to see them suffering.

  1. Excellent, Alex. There's only one mistake. Remember that "person" is singular, so you need the indefinite article "a"
