"Mercy" Killing?

1a. From George's perspective, I think that in a way he did have a reason to kill him because, maybe he didn't want to see Lennie struggle any longer. Maybe he thought to himself "What would happen if Curley got a hold of him first? How badly would he have treated him?" I also would of thought that it's better for himto rest in peace than to stay alive and be treated way worse.

1b. I personally don't think what George did to Lennie was the best thing to do. He could've decided to go with with Lennie's idea of running away. They can go find another job and George could've atleast try and teach Lennie what's right and the more he learns maybe he won't forget.

2a. Recently in Italy a father was investigated for his daughter's"murder." Docters were told "...to allow his daughter's feeding tubes to be removed, saying that was her wish." In my response I think if that's what his daughter wanted or if that would make her happy then he should've done it. What more could a dad want then to make his child happy?

2b. To illustrate "...saying that was her wish," I would think that was most likely the best thing to do to her. The qute says that "it was her wish" to get her feeding tubes removed.
