Yes, they can decide against that path but how many will after years of being prepped and brainwashed that it's the right path.

Does the doctor physically write the prescription and physically hold the needle? Does the parent care about their kid, and not want them to commit suicide? Of course, but this is not "calling the shots" by any stretch of the imagination.

If you are right and the have no influence then the kid is making a choice before it's legal for him/her to do so.

I'm telling you "parents, Doctors, some adult is calling the shots for the kid" is wrong. Nothing more, nothing less.
If you want to move the goalpost to "have any influence" that's a longer, more nuanced discussion and I didn't engage you on that.

This conversation is around gender right now but with the bio-tech coming down the road it's going to get even more interesting. I self-identify as a corvid but am late to the transitioning game. (not making light of the current situation, just wondering how things will sort)

No ethical doctor is going to act on the kids say so without the parent (or court/authority) ordering it.
