State Ordered Euthanasia

[Tellos Athenaios]

If the child was in a vegetative state, wouldn't if feel no pain? So I don't understand why it matters how the child died in the first place and the decision should have been left to the parents.

Eh no. The parents wanted the doctors to perform a risky bit of surgery on the kid which effectively meant circumventing the whole windpipe (the lungs would be exposed directly).

Oh yea I forgot about that part of the article. I'm wondering though, would the baby have felt pain since it was in a vegetative state?
