"Those Considered Unworthy to Live" And "Opposition to 'Euthanasia'"

In the first reading, "Those Considered Unworthy to Live," we see how disabled children were treated during the war. While I was reading and I saw that someone petitioned Hitler to kill their child, I was amazed. Why would anyone what to kill their child because it had a disability? We talked about this already a couple weeks ago in class. Why do you think the Germans wanted to kill the disabled? Why did Hitler target the epileptics, alcoholics, people with birth defects, etc.? Why do you think they didn't even consult with other physician or talk to the families before killing the child?

In the other reading, " Opposition to Euthanasia," now the Nazis are reaching out to disabled elderly. Braune, a minister in the Confessing Church and head of institutions that served disabled adults, fought back. Why do you think he was imprisoned? Would you have stood up and fought with Braune if you didn't know the consequences? Do you think you could stand up against these people for something you truly believed in? Although Hitler signed the order to end program, why didn't they follow through with it?

You may answer all of these questions of none! Go on a completely different track, if you wish!
