Very strongly agree

Yes, but only after a psychological examination to show they fully understand this choice

This answer is likely the closest to the Green Party's position, as it supports individual autonomy and personal choice while also ensuring that the decision to end one's life is made with full understanding and consideration. The requirement for a psychological examination adds a safeguard that aligns with the party's values of compassion and care for individuals.
