State your answer for the following situations briefly.

1. Let's say you are in a situation in which you can choose whether your child dies or a doctor
who is able to cure cancer of many patients. Whom would you choose and why?

I'll select my kid. There are thousands of doctors out there who are continuously developing and
researching various cures, but I will only have one child. I believe there is no correct answer to this one
because this question is analogous to the case of selecting the greater good. However, assuming the
circumstances were rigid, I'd most likely try to find a way to keep both. As a child lover, I instinctively
choose to save my child. Regardless, I would probably save the doctor. Only, my decision may change
depending on my child's age. If my child was old enough, I'd probably let them choose whom to
sacrifice. However, if my child is still young, I would most likely sacrifice them. Knowing myself and the
values I may instill in my child would be wiser.

2. You are driving along a mountainside in a brand-new car. You drive until you are presented
with a problem. Whether you crash your brand-new car off of a cliff, or you will run over a
woman and a child.  What will you do and why?

I'd rather crash my brand-new car off a cliff because a car is just a thing. You can replace a car with a
brand new one, but you can't replace the life that you took for the sake of your car if you run over a
woman and a child.
