A moral dilemma

[AngRemembered]

A fire breaks out whilst your at a fertillity clinic, there is time to save one thing before you leave the building, which do you choose?

A, A small child at the back of the room
B, A tray of 15 fertilised embryos on the front counter

[SexualHeroics]

Niether. I go and rob the vending machine instead.

[Ashleee:)]

I would say the child. The child would feel so much more pain than the embryo's, and there is no way i could let a living, breathing child burn alive.

Not even for 6 months worth of Mars Bars, Twixes, M & M's, Topics, Aeros, Revels, Malteasars, Snickers, Rolos and Curly Wirleys?

[AngRemembered]

Yes me too Ashley, for the same reasons.

BTW, I had this discussion a few days ago with a friend who was real anti abortion, she too chose the child, in effect leaving 15 abortions.

get to your kennel.

Get the child to carry the tray of embryos :thumbs:

[Sunny_01]

No thought required for me with that question, I would pick the child everytime.

[Matt10k]

When it came to it, I'd pick the child everytime but then there is the heartbreak of the 15 families that will lose a child as opposed to the 1 if you pick the child.

As others have said though, it comes down to suffering and the child would suffer so it'd have to be the child.

[Lauren]

Child.

Human suffering is felt from the child, also - some of the embryos wouldn't have developed healthily and successfully anyway.

[Spike]

No thought needed for this the child everytime because they are a proper life and would be hurt more if I left them

[Shaun]

Agree with the majority here, I'd save the child.

Did anyone actually say the embryos? :shocked:

[Shaun]

Hmm, can't see anyone, but thought I'd say majority in case someone had :tongue:

very true, I didnt know that at the time but since a person in the know has informed me embryos would not survice for long if they were taken outside without treatment,,, hell I'm glad I didnt go for that option hyperthetically or really.
Imagine how gutted you would be :rolleyes:

[bigbr0ther]

Well, you didn't say how old she was but if she was able to walk I'd save the embryos since she can leave of her own accord; otherwise I'd save her.

[Tom]

The child because not all the embryos will take, if any at all.

Theres only an 8% success rate and even that is with multiple attempts.
