Stranger's baby. My mother's a troll.
Mine has been dead years.
But she chose Thanksgiving Day to tell me that my beloved dog had died.
Six months earlier.
@BufftonBeotch I'm sorry she did that to you. That's rough.
if I believed in hell I might comfort myself that there will be justice for my mother. But it has to be enough that I eliminated her from my life and she can't cause any further harm.
I think any decent adult would beat you away to go get the baby.
A reasonable competent and healthy adult has an assumed ability to get themselves to safety.
A baby has none.
I’m not sure, but I think you’ve altered the parameters of the dilemma.
My mother is 87 & suffers from dementia. She doesnt even recognize me & thinks its 1959. I'm saving the stranger's baby.
The kid. My mother's already dead and when she was a live I wouldn't have pissed on her if she was on fire.
You should turn this into a poll. I’d save the baby and then feel horrible for the rest of my life for allowing my mom to die. I can imagine still hearing her screaming in horror and pain 20 years down the road. Meanwhile, the baby I saved grows up to be a depraved serial killer.
Wow your glass is empty ...but in a funny dark way.
To be honest, and I would figure that this might go against the grain here, but My mom is the closest thing to a best friend. I would save her.
My mother. Easy. I don't know your baby. I'm sorry.
Just when I thought I was effed up cause it’s like that baby could grow up to be anything, including a killer and here I did throw my mom’s life away for them.
@EmeraldJewel I gave it a second or two of thought but my morals are to protect my family above all others. Now if we are talking about either a mother or their child and they have no relation to me. Yeah I'll be saving the baby but it's my mom.
What the fuck kind of question is this!? My mom would NEVER forgive me if I didn't pick her! My dad would probably get mad, too. Well, it's hard for her to get mad if she's dead, but I feel like she'd judge me negatively anyway.
A kind of question to make you think.
@EmeraldJewel the sort of question that makes me overthink
My Mom even if I have to toss the baby into the river... MY MOTHER. She Gave Me Life. End of the Bullshit!!!
You’d also be taking a chance if saving a damn monster cause there’s no telling who the baby could grow up to be so your mother’s life was sacrificed for no damn reason!
@EmeraldJewel I am not questioning or taking chances my 6 Siblings dead or alive will be saying the same thing... Mom lives!
I find the thought of saving either to be rather unpleasant. I'd just go grab a bite to eat and let Ma and the fecal factory deal with their problems on their own.
Lol that's horrible
Depends on some important issues. In some cases it would be my mother, in others it would be the baby.
well that's a no brainer. I'd save the one I loved
Unless you created the situation that put either in harm's way, you have nothing to do with the loss of life. You are saving someone's life because you were able to and in many cases, putting yourself in a life-threatening situation to do so. That act is noble regardless of other events happening nearby. At that same moment thousands of people are dying across the globe, the one in close proximity is as much your fault as everyone else's, which is none.
My answer is that I'd save the baby, and then I'd do what I could to save my mother.
This question took me a moment. But, selfishly, I have to say my mother. She has people depending on her (not just me). The baby, while sad, doesn't have much depending on it.
Lol I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought like that, plus the baby could grow up to be any kind of crazy person.
