RIGHT RESPONSE TO CHILDREN'S DEATHS?

Editor,

What hypocrites!

After glorifying Dylan Walborn's starvation by parents
who wearied of giving their disabled child appropriate
care, the Denver Post's Kevin Simpson chronicled his
starvation death for over 20 days. The inaptly titled,
"Letting Go, Dylan's last days," was an instruction
manual for euthanizing medically vulnerable children.

Your editorial praising a Denver Human Services
investigation of the death of Chandler Grafner falls
on deaf ears after the Post gave a plethora of reasons
and justifications for starving little Dylan to death.

You set the standard and gave other parents the idea
that when the going gets rough, ending innocent life
is permissible.

Shame on you for pretending otherwise.
