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.
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.

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.
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.

My mother is 87 & suffers from dementia. She doesnt even recognize me & thinks its 1959. I'm saving the stranger's baby.

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.
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.
