That worries me a little because it gives rise to the question as to where one draws the line. It is a minefield if families get involved. We are working on introducing legislation to safeguard vulnerable adults and have been working on this area for some time. I am concerned about the role that families might play in this. Will they have an influence? What kind of influence will that be? It is an issue that definitely needs to be flagged. When it comes to children, who makes that decision?
