Is Euthanasia Morally Wrong

Is it okay for man to be able to choose if they want to die or not? If a person lives in pain and torment every day of their life whether the person is facing death, or they are in constant pain every day, is it okay for people to deny them death on their own free will? I believe that you have to question what you know that is right and what is wrong to be able to truly know if euthanasia is morally right or not. If you examine all the points in Euthanasia and look at the reasons for why people do request and want assisted suicide then the answer becomes clear that Euthanasia is an acceptable and morally right thing for a person whose, in need to do so.

I believe in Socrates point of view in the case of euthanasia, he believes that humans should strive to make the morally upright and correct decisions, and therefore would lead to the idea of mitigation of human suffering.

Doctors should be willing and able to practice and not fear trouble with assisting the people who request and are in need of assisted suicide. Doctors practice should always be in their concern for the patient they are trying to help, and there is only so much medically you can do for a person and when a patient is done trying to fight their
