Should parents be mandated to provide health care for their children?
Health care and Health insurance are mutually EXCLUSIVE. They are not one and the same.
Should parents be "mandated" to care for their children? They already are. Faiure to care for ones child is known as child abuse.
Should they be "mandated" to provide "health care"? Define health care. For their are court decisions that allow "faith healing" versus taking a child to a "Doctor" as being perfectly acceptable.
The Public Option is a blatant attempt to put private enterprise out of business and to have a government controlled - a government run health care system in the US.
I do not, and will not, support a Government run health system in the US. It is one of the reasons I opted out of Social Security and medicare.
It is not government run healthcare, it is an alternative insurance option for people that cannot afford to be gouged. Now, if this story does not prove that private insurance is coming between a patient (a baby no less) and their doctor, then nothing does. Do you not understand after the thousands of articles, many of which have been posted here, how the private insurance companies are insanely corrupted? Why don't you backtrack and take a peek as this has gotten tedious. Have a great day!

I know that there was a case in WI recently in which the parents prayed for their 11 year old daughter instead of taking her to a doctor when she became ill. The girl died from untreated diabetes! Very sad to think that this girl could have easily been treated and would still be alive.

They're not proposing dropping those people from health care - they're saying they should be restricted from receiving certain treatments.
Also, it's a survey from 800 doctors, not anything coming from NHS themselves.
I disagree with ANYONE being denied the right to recieve any type of treatment - and doing so simply because of their age is ridiculous.
