I think although clearly the child's best interests have to be considered, removing the decision making process from parents wanting to try different or alternative treatments at other medical facilities is for the most part inappropriate. These parents have done nothing wrong, and the sheer level of grief and stress that the hospitals place them under for trying to do the right thing for their child makes me seriously doubt if the decision makers in the hospitals are the right people to be making the decisions about people's lives at all. Family is everything, and parental rights should not be removed or circumvented unless they have been abusive or neglectful. IMHO they have a right to elect to remove their child to another medical facility which is offering to treat rather than to turn off a life support machine.
