To each their own. I hope I don't reach that level of despair or suffering of any kind to desire take such action. It doesnt say specifically in the article if he was suffering from anything. I was under the assumption this assisted action would only be accepted under certain circumstances and with doctors confirmation and approval.
Regardless. Each person has their own choices in these matters.

Belgium minor first to be granted euthanasia
The head of the federal euthanasia commission confirmed the case but gave no further details.
Belgium is the only country that allows minors of any age to choose euthanasia.
They must have rational decision-making capacity and be in the final stages of a terminal illness.
The parents of the under-18 year olds must also give their consent.
Still agree it should be wide open ?

Yes. Unequivocally.
Children shouldn't have to suffer just because they are children.
It's good that Mr. Kinsella could end his life on his own terms.
