Read a random definition: porcupine provision

A quick definition of assisted self-determination:

Assisted self-determination is when someone helps another person make their own decisions about their life. This term is sometimes used to talk about assisted suicide, which is when someone helps another person end their life because of a serious illness or pain.

A more thorough explanation:

Assisted Self-Determination

Assisted self-determination is a term used to describe the process of helping someone make their own decisions about their life, especially when it comes to end-of-life decisions. This term is often used interchangeably with assisted suicide, which involves helping someone end their life.

One example of assisted self-determination is when a person with a terminal illness decides to stop receiving treatment and instead focus on palliative care. Another example is when a person creates an advance directive, which outlines their wishes for medical treatment in case they become unable to make decisions for themselves.

It's important to note that assisted self-determination is different from assisted suicide, which involves actively helping someone end their life. Assisted self-determination is about empowering individuals to make their own choices about their life, while assisted suicide is about ending it.

Assisted self-determination is about respecting an individual's autonomy and giving them the tools they need to make informed decisions about their life. The examples provided illustrate how this can be done in practice, whether it's through choosing palliative care or creating an advance directive. By supporting individuals in this way, we can help them maintain control over their life and ensure that their wishes are respected.

There’s someone I found on here with the username threeoutchange and if my understanding is correct that’s a reference to the debut album by a pretty cool 90s-00s Japanese band called Supercar. I geeked a little
