BBC NEWS | Wales | Parents fight for 'right to life'

Essentially the doctors and the NHS are arguing that they have the right to decide on the life of this Child and the parents are arguing that it is there right as parents. Personally I believe

1. That when no extreme measures are taken that there is a responsibility to preserve life, a vent is not extreme in most instances.

2. The parents are always the final arbiter unless they are clearly negligent, clearly in this case the parents are not.

3. In any choice between life and death you must side with Life.
