In the case of teen euthanasia, for thirteen year old Samantha, ethical issues have been raised in regard to Samantha's want to end her cancer treatment, thus ending her life. Ethical issues are raised when deciding if Samantha is at an age old enough to make this decision. If Samantha is believed to be to young then who should make the decision for her to continue or to discontinue treatment? Further ethical questions are raised if Samantha does discontinue treatment, should she be allowed to die peacefully or should the doctor end her life with a lethal injection? Other ethical issues are raised when considering her parents wishes of doing it without her permission and putting her under to undergo the procedure needed for a possible cure.
