Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I have started this petition for all parents to have the final decision on there critically ill child.. i.E further treatment take child abroad any means to keep there child alive.. Parents should decide what happens to there child we as parents are the creator of our children
Therefore it should be the parents of the child to make the final decision on there babys life .. No parent should have to sit & plan for there child to die when they think there is hope within there child's life they should not have to watch there child go through the horrendous palliative care the government think is appropriate for our children to go through
