So called Euthanasia laws are being debated throughout the world and have been for decades, even back a century ago.
There are many that feel that someone suffering a debilitating illness should be able to make the choice to end their life with dignity. It saves them days/weeks/months/years of suffering and takes the burden of care off the family.
Others look at the potential for mis-use, families pushing individuals to end their lives to conserve family resources for other uses. Where is the dividing line between assisted suicide and murder? How do you tell? Is asking for a bullet and a gun the same as asking someone to pull the trigger for them?
One Viewpoint:
Without much more detail than your question, honestly no.
I myself find suicide "the cowards way out", and the person's death would only lead to overall sadness and depression for everyone who knew the person. So no. And even if the person is going to commit suicide without your assistance, I would put as much effort into stopping the event as physically possible.

Is a students suicide justified?
No,ANS2:Suicide is always justified in the mind of the person who commits the act. Depending on the society, the suicide may be condemned or condoned, depending on the circumstances. Most societies do not allow that suicide as a method for dealing with an acute emotional trauma is justified. A person surviving the attempt may be remanded to psychiatric care. Giving your life to save another is a form of suicide that is often not only justified by society but praised as an heroic act. You will find that different societies will have varying degrees of justification for those acts that fall somewhere in between, such as: suicide to end suffering, suicide to make a political statement, and suicide that starts with "Hey, y'all watch this!" and ends up on YouTube.Another View: "Justified" by who, or by what circumstances?In Western Culture the idea of suicide is not condoned on either legal, moral, or religious grounds.
