>Children in America are undergoing electric shock treatment in growing numbers. Now known as electroconvulsive therapy - or ECT - the controversial treatment is being used on severely autistic children who self-harm. The BBC has been given access to film a child being treated using ECT. Our World's Chris Rogers meets parents who say the treatment is helping their children, and the critics who say it is barbaric.

i burn myself with my zippo lid to not drink maybe some high voltage through my skull will kill the urge to drink?
ECT actually works though doesnt it? its like saying using Warfarin is barbaric because it has nasty side effects

This. If any of my illnesses were treatable with ECT, I'd take it. Pills suck.

Guillotines and firing squads seem barbaric, but they work, don't they? They're far more reliable than lethal injection, might I add.

This as well. Mutilating a boy's genitals at birth is fine, and so is manipulating him into having them severed entirely during his adolescent years, but electroshock is the one considered barbaric? I pity what society has become.

I dunno, I think electrocution should be reserved for faggots. If nothing else because it's funny and faggots are disgusting and deserve to be tortured. Other than that, I haven't seen any evidence that suggest definitively one way or the other. Anyone have any case studies?
