self-harmers should not receive medical attention

I will refute my opponents argument paragraph by paragraph. 1. My opponent says that we should just turn our back on this suffering and just accept it. That's the most morally corrupt statement I have ever heard in my life. Also, it is the fault of people in countries because as stated earlier; the resources that go to treat self-injuries could go to help legitimate people who need them. My opponent accepts their is major suffering in the world, but she wants us to turn our back onto it. Her analogy is also false; it would be more like you want Nike shoes because you deserve them when other people in the world can't afford the cheapest brand of shoes. It is a completely selfish view point to turn our back on our fellow humans because they "don't have our resources'. It's because of wasted money that we can't help them any more. 2. I'll accept my opponent's Wikipedia definition. However, she contradicts herself when she says self-harm is related to "serious mental-illness" as her definition explicitly states that it is only "borderline" disorders. This means it is not an extreme case, it might not even be an actual case. I also would like to ask my opponent, does the mother who watches her entire family rot away from viruses not have mental stress? Don't these people have mental anguish? Their real people in our country who can't afford to take care of their own families and we should go squander resources on people who make their own rational choice to hurt themselves. My opponents article states that a "statistical analysis is difficult"; this means it hasn't even been fully proved all the ideas about mental state of self-harmers. Thus my opponent can't base her case on any statistics provided by her source, because an actual analysis is impossible. Yet my opponent has accepted that their are millions of people who are suffering from illnesses that they can't control; yet she believes these people are second-rated to the needs of self-harmers. 3. Again I've made my argument concerning the actual credibility of the source; however to also respond to her argument, THEIR ARE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO ASK FOR CARE. MY opponent talks about a self-harmer bottling up their emotions so that they won't help others and yet other people don't even have the option to go to a hospital. My opponent believes that mental stress is justification for priority over people who are severely suffering. Again I refute the mental argument by stating; Does a mother not have mental anguish as she watches her children die before her, being powerless to stop it? 4. My opponents source claims that one of the reasons for self harm is the pursuit of "perfectionism". This means that their can be selfish motives behind the enactment of self-harm and thus my argument stands strong in regards to the selfish self-harmers. Further more; how does society treat them different if they are unaware of the injuries in the first place? Also, if society treats them differently then isn't it fair to admit that society finds something morally wrong with self-hurters? Yet, when a kid gets run over do we look at him like he's an alien, or do we immediately call for help over the concern of a person who had no control over his fate? My opponent argues that the kid doesn't deserve more respect; I argue this is false. Since I've proved selfishness can be a reason for self-harm, the idea that a selfish person should have more respect over that of an innocent boy who has just gotten run over by a freak accident is completely irrational in every sense. The people who never had control of their lives deserve much more respect than the people who always had control and made bad decisions. 5. I won't really argue the merits of smoking here; and I understand my opponents counter-argument. In a hospital it's true that the most serious cases should be listened to first. By that definition the MILLIONS OF PEOPLE THAT ARE SUFFERING should have instant priority over any self-harmer who is not about to die. Yet that obviously doesn't happen; thus why is their any reason a self-harmer should get priority? 6. Obesity and Smoking are self-injuries... "Self-harm is often associated... drug dependence, eating disorders" (from my opponents evidence) thus we see that these are self-injuries and yet my opponent believes these people don't deserve medical care and benefits. Thus she is arguing for my case and she is contradicting herself here. I don't understand my opponents further arguments; should we not care for other countries and our own soldiers who go to war? Should we let them rot, because some smoker demands medical care with a smile? Further more how are self-harmers socially harmed at the instant that they hide their injuries? It's obvious we're not even aware of their existence. If they are mis-understood then how is it my opponent can provide a theoretical diagnosis on the potentials and causes of self-injury? My opponent wants even more money to go to these people when she has already listed many other justifiable ways to spend our money. I believe that all houses should have heating and clean water before we start handing out medical care to an obese person. If individuals waste their money that has nothing to do with a hospital's expenditure of money and thus my opponents arguments regarding individual consumption waste is in-valid. My opponent mainly has gone on a long list of what she believes to be moral reasons that we should give medical care to self-harmers. Yet not only has she made multiple contradictions; she has also devalued the lives of millions who are in complete suffering who can't even complain about their rights to proper health care. She believes the smoker deserves more rights to health care than a poor family has to have clean water. My opponents case is based on a long list of immoral arguments and thus when it comes to the question of which side is the morally correct thing to do; their is no reason why a strong Pro vote shouldn't be affirmed. I will now hand over the debate to the Con.
