Refuse all the care you want as an adult….but when it’s a child involved the hospital will get courts involved to save their life


Curious your take on what age they are no longer a “child”?

Obviously this one with a baby is easy and cut and dry. But what if a 12/13/14 year old was refusing this without their parents consent? I only ask because of the controversy around abortion/gender surgeries and age limits of parents etc.

I’m not a lawyer versed in medical cases but I would imagine it’s under 18.

But each individual case would go before the hospital’s ethics board anyways before legal action is pursued.
