In places where it is legal its not actually abused, and the majority of people who want to die don't actually go through with it. Its just about having that option if things get that bad.
I think there should be regulations on it though, e.g. if you want to do it you yourself have to go through the courts to get permission, and if you leave it too late (where you can't speak etc) then really its your own fault. Then let it happen in front of someone legal (e.g. a doctor) so the law know it isn't being abused. I do agree with euthanasia but not the traditional idea.

Oh yeh there would have to be water tight regulations but even then Im not sure its right but I dont really know why I feel that way
