Quote:What about the other aspects of my post, you seem to totally have ignored those. Tell me, can you control yourself if your child is going to die and there is nothing that you can do about it? You and I both know the answer to that, so quit going on about this self control crap. Tell me that you have never let your emotions get away with you when someone you loved was hurt and you lashed out against the one(s) causing that pain?
Recognize that there is far more going on than your narrow minded view point. An open mind is willing to look around and get the answers, a closed mind is unwilling to budge. Your comments show that you have a closed mind and can't handle it when presented with a chance to learn more about a situtation because it may change your narrowminded view point.
Frankly, I did not read the rest of that post, heh. Too lazy. As far as the current question raised (after grudgingly reading the other one more or less fully). C'mon, you're kidding, right? I would not leave the house without my child. If I die, I die. Period. In a RL situation, you could never be 1000% sure that there is not even a .000001% chance that you could save your child. And even if somehow I knew 1000% that nothing could be done, I don't think I would have much desire to leave anyway. See, this is why the human race has evolved to this point. Parents protecting their young and giving them a chance to live at all costs. Most mothers have that instict naturally, most fathers develop it over time. To not only not have that instict, but to have the exact opposite is inhuman.
This is what I mean about liberals. It's all about you, first and foremost. All your values are f....d up.
Edit: Yes, I know that this *is* an "effing parent" type of answer. You got a problem with that?
