I'm just wondering why they won't let the parents feed her if they want to.

Because it isn't their decision. They no longer had any say in the matter the day Terri said "I do" and the papers got signed with the state. It is just as questionable for a random person on the street to make this decision as it would be for her parents to say the tube should be re-inserted because they would be willing to care for her. Until her husband dies, they have zero say in this matter.

If they decide that she shouldn't live out her days with a feeding tube, fine. Euthanize her.

The same people that want this shell of a person to do nothing other than continue processing food pumped into her for years to come are the same ones that made that option entirely illegal.
