"To forbid rebirthing, as in the Colorado case, is in my
book, the same thing as forbidding breastfeeding because a baby dies
from
"insufficient milk".  One bad outcome by someone who doesn't know what
they
are doing doesn't mean that the idea or concept is bad.

Peg, you are so correct here. State officials should not be "forbidding"
therapeutic treatments. The case at hand appears to have several legal
questions to be answered: The practitioners did not hold current
licences: they carried out a non-proven procedure on a non-consenting
minor; and they did not heed the child's warning signs that things were
not OK. It seems to me, heavy handed at best to forbid a therapy that
some consenting adults may wish to employ for self healing.
