Tkill93 Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 If someone came up to you and pointed a gun at your son and said ' Either you let us take him with us and raise him, or we'll kill you both now.' If you knew that if they took him he would be raised to hate and taught to kill, but he would also be well fed and clothed and educated, would you let them take him?You have no other options, you must either give your child to them or let him be killed with you. This is the choice that many many mother faced during WW2 in Nazi Germany.They could let their children be raised to be Nazi soldiers or let them die at a young young age. Is it better to let yourself and your children die or to let them live as murderers?Do you think the people who choose to give their child up were in the right, or in the wrong?

Willieh Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 I would allow them to take my child; but I would ask them to end my life anyway. I wouldn't want them to kill the kid, but I wouldn't want to live without the kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxlord Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 if they grow up to be murderers then I'd give up my life to save other lives I would probably think different if I were ACTUALLY in that situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyber Altair Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 i wouldn't have left the child die, the child is still young and deserves to live no matter who he is and what he will become. Plus it could be an epic life and someone sexy would do my part on a movie based on it ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyhe Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Most mothers would rather have their kids to have a living chance than to let them die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelioSpark Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Hm this is a tough one. The way I look at it, if you hand the child over and let them grow up being violent, that is the only life they will ever know, so it won't be bad to them. Even though i may not like the way they grow up, i would be dead so it would't matter. So I would let the kid live^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiro Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 If it was some kind of criminal, I'd let him go and call the cops as soon as he's gone. If it was a Nazi in WW2, kill us both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarbleZone Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 and you dont say kill us bothyou say' date=' kill me instead, take the child, let it livewhat the hell is wrong with you?[/quote'] He says whatever he feels like saying because it's his opinion and this is a debate. Consider for a moment that perhaps he didn't want his child to grow up and become a Nazi murderer as well, and please, try to show a little more respect for the opinions of other people even if you disagree with them. "What the hell is wrong with you" is hardly a nice way of saying you disagree, and definitely not a good argument to prove him wrong... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RacecaR Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 It's different for war. But... Yes. The coppers could find him probably. Better then us both dying in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2sick4u Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 I don't think it's a decision for me to make on his behalf.I'd let the child decide, whether he'd rather be noble and meet his ends with me here, or be preservative and lead a life of violence.Either way, I'd respect, and accept, his decision.=/.2sick~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
