I support this petition because I support this petition. I would like to know whywould we even think about doing this to childrenor adults. ECT has been done on people withneurological diseases and the results were,hemorrhages, glisosis, neuronal loss,amnesia, andfatalities. The only reason these Dr.'s feelthis works on, what they so call Mental Illnesspatients is because they say they see a change inthe patient, YES I am sure they do they arebecoming BRAIN DEAD!!!!

Cannot believe they are still doing such ridiculous things to people out of a horror movie, to supposedly help people! These people should go to prison for 5 years for every person, for every time they shock somebody.

ECT is a failed technology which only dulls a person's consciousness and has no positive effect. ECT is a tool for creating what the psychiatrists believe are easily-controlled people.

It has been proven conclusively that ECT is a failure, the number of great artists who committed suicide after ECT is legion. The doctors who do it are criminals and they know it. The money they get for it is blood money. It's a barbaric practice, a disgrace and a violation of Hippocratic oath because it does harm.

because it is barbaric to force ECT on anyone, and most people believe that ECT is a thing of the past. They are "shocked" to hear that it is still done at all - more so that it is being inflicted upon our children. We need to let the public know what is going on!

Repeatedly slamming electricity through a child's developing brain to cause convulsions that erase precious memories to PERHAPS benefit the child (?) must seem premature, barbaric, and at the very, very least, too questionable to allow for even the most uninformed person.
