If it came down to a scenario where only you or your unborn baby would live, you'd choose the baby's life over yours, amirite?

it would probably depend. It would be very hard to choose the baby's life over your own.

It would, but in the end I prob would cuz if the baby can live, they have an entire life ahead of them. I just wanted to see people's opinions :P

depends on how pregnant I am, whether the dad would raise it, and whether the baby was an accident or I really wanted it

You predicted a riot, and that is what you'll get.

Sure, we'd all like to think that we would make the noble, selfless choice, but how many of us really would? After all, one can always make more babies.

not always

If it was some random kid I didn't know, my survival instincts/rationalization would probably take over, even though it's selfish. If it was my own kid, however, I would do it... I don't think I could live with myself afterward.

well the world will end on 2012... the baby doesnt have that much time to grow up :| so yeah i'd choose my own :D

I can have more babies; there will never be another me. I mean, it'd be nice to be noble and all, but there'd have to be a 100% guarantee that the baby would survive and my husband would have to agree with my choice.

I hate kids, so I would take every precaution to not get preggers. And even then, if I DID get pregnant, I'm not selfless. I'd like to say I'd choose the baby, I doubt I would.

Honestly, I don't think I would. I would be way too freaked out about knowing that I would die for a child who I wouldn't be able to watch grow up anyway.

Wait...if the mom chooses herself to die how can the unborn baby survive?

....Unless it was stillborn. That reminds me of a joke. What's 12 inches long, stiff and makes women scream? Crib death.

That's awful. I walked in on my dead baby brother from cot death. It's sounds so stupid but I just cried a little :/

Basically, for me it comes down to either ending a life of someone who is already alive, or hoping a ball of cells will end up living a perfect world. I would not end my life for something not alive unless I needed too... Call me selfish, but i'm already alive and the ball of cells aren't really more important than a human.

I sure hope you all realize that the baby couldn't be born if you chose its life because then you would die and it would die.

You do realize that this is hypothetical.

I wouldn't want my child to grow up without a mother. And even though a child isn't just a piece of paper, you can have another child

by Anonymous 14 years ago

But you'd go through life with the guilt that you know you were selfish and killed your own child.
