Do you have more than one kid?

Was a little bored and remembered Padawan made a thread about would you kill yourself to save your child.


This is only gonna be for specific people with more than one kid, but will be interesting seeing how these parents would decide.




This is only for people with children, meaning plural...this is not a hypothetical question because the main answer is gonna be choosing between your oldest or youngest. People with kids will have to chose more than on that basis I think.


If you had to chose between one of your kids, which one would it be and why?

I have two kids. It would depend on the scenario. They each have a different set of skills and liabilities. cn

Like some sick robber breaks in and has a gun to their heads and says "choose" which one to die and I'll let the other one go. If you refuse to choose, I'll kill them both.


There's your scenario.

I would seek a Kobayashi Maru scenario, like rushing the robber. I would sooner die myself than be held hostage to that sort of manipulation ... and have an offspring who'd have to live with the outcome, and me. cn

You have no choice, the robber is at least across the room and shoots you as you're rushing him and then kills your children for not following the rules.


There's more than just that scenario too, the main question is if you were put in a position where you HAVE to choose. Like what if we lived in a world where you could only be allowed to have one child (insert Japan joke here) and you got caught with two or the law had just been implanted and the government says "sorry but you will be forced to have one of your children choose one of your kids executed" so choose now or we will be forced to take them both. Now this is where they are at your doorstep with a SWAT team...

My mind would be going supersonic looking for a way to game the game. The unspoken bottom line is that I recoil from the premise. I'd look REALLY HARD for a spoiler. If none is provided, i'd still rush the guy with the gun. Problem solved, if very inelegantly. (It would give my kids a second or two in which to improvise.) cn

This is a dumb what if scenario. You've been watching too many movies. Most people will just say kill me save the children.

P.s. your thinking china with the one child policy, that they do not religiously adhere to.

That scenario, no choice. If you go for the robber, he will only have a choice of shooting one of them before you get to him, or shoot you.
Like CN says though, I also have 2 kids. My boy is completely different from his sister, and in the scenario you presented, I think he would handle the robber..

You loop hole finder you lol. Ok, your kids just got abducted and the killer on the phone says choose now or I kill them both, no more loop holes lol.

Would like to hear why that would be exactly, thanks for answering the question correctly tho.

Ah, knew it was one of those Asian countries.

It's not dumb, I'm genuinely curious to know what people (that actually have kids would do) no rushing people or saying kill me instead, you don't have that opportunity...I didn't even want to make a scenario lol, plus I think I finally found one that their is no way out of it. It has nothing to do with TV, you have no other choice here.

I don't get the "insert Japan joke here" part..........
You say 'If you got caught with 2 kids'................. If the society was like that, wouldn't there be some type of govt. interference that would either have the mother or father fixed after one child?
I'm not trying to troll ya, I'm just trying to imagine other possibilities.....
Send one kid to another country? Is that an option?
