The child is coming to harm, when he is struggling to breath. Last time I looked, euthanasia is a crime in the UK, being in healthcare myself, I was taught from the start, that to neglect a person to the point that they die, is potentially manslaughter. I do not agree the State controls everybody.

The parents own that child, not the government, not the doctors. We are being described abroad as evil, kidnappers and even “Nazi” like behaviour, with the dictatorship style rulings over the parents wishes.
