Child euthanasia in Nazi Germany

Child euthanasia in Nazi Germany happened during World War II. It was when the Nazis (the people in charge of the German government) decided to kill children who they thought were not perfect. They believed that kids who had physical or mental disabilities, or diseases like cancer, were not valuable and could not fit in to the picture of a perfect race they wanted to create. So they decided to kill these children by giving them medicine that would make them fall asleep and never wake up. Children who were killed this way were killed so they wouldn't be a burden on society or on other people, but it was wrong and really sad.
