Default "Ashley Treatment"

I read an article on People Magazine a few days ago, and from what I read, there were this couple from Wisconsin that made the decision to stop the growth of their daughter, Ashley, due to the fact that she was suffering from a terminal illness. In other words, she's now a child for the rest of her life.

My feelings about this?

I'm terribly ashame of those parents, as they made a decision that sounds more like eternal torture. Sure, it's not my business and it is the parents decision, by halting her growth, it sounds much worse than death.

Sorry, but I just felt rather sad about this and I feel very sorry for the girl.

If you're curious, here's the link:
