The Netherlands has many beliefs that are considered questionable in other parts of the world. The most prominent of these is the legality of marijuana. There are, however, some less known but no less debatable problems, including abortion, prostitution, gay marriages, and assisted suicide.
The latter is entirely legal in the Netherlands, with only restrictions including careful revision of possible other solutions, and, in the case of minors, consultation with parents or guardians.
Because this was a choice made quite intentionally by the Dutch government, and because some may agree with this solution, there is little that can be done to help. The most one can do to save these lives that are given so freely is to work on an individual basis, helping those considering this alternative to be very careful when taking this route.
