I wasn't planning on discussing it at all with her...because I agree she is too young. But, in the weekly school newsletter there's a list of people to pray for and it was listed as, "Please pray for Terri Schiavo who has been sentenced to death by starvation" and she asked about it.ph4ever wrote:buffettbride wrote:It's actually been very challenging at home, discussing this with Victoria. She goes to a Catholic school and obviously there's no question where the Church stands on this issue. She does know that mommy and daddy have different opinions (than her school) in this particular case but we didn't really discuss it much further than that. She didn't really ask.ph4ever wrote:buffettbride wrote:Thank you Troy. I share your sentiments.PHBeerman wrote:This is a tough situation for all involved.

However, as a parent, I try to think of what I would do if it were one of my boys in this condition. The answer is I truly do not know. I hope I never have to make that decision. The same goes if it were my wife in that bed. Luckily we have used this case to document our wishes. I personally hope that the parents realize that they are fighting this battle for themselves not Terri. And I hope that the husband does the same.
when your children get old enough you can use this case to discuss it with them. That's what Steven and I did Saturday. I know exactly what he would want me to do.
IMHO she's probably too young to discuss this with. In fact if I had tried to have that discussion with Steven a couple of years ago it would have probably stressed him too much.

It's a Catholic school so it doesn't surprise me, but yes, they could have left it off and everyone would have known. I think they saw it as an opportunity for parents in agreement with the Church to talk about it with their kids.ph4ever wrote:buffettbride wrote:I wasn't planning on discussing it at all with her...because I agree she is too young.

IMHO that was so wrong of her school. They could have left off the death by starvation part.
