What should he do?
I think that teaches you a lesson: Don't run away from your problems, because no matter what you will need to face them in the end.

| Moral Dilemma #1 | ||||||
| A man serving a life sentence for a murder he did not commit finally escapes. He hides in a mountain cabin. While hiding there, a lost eight year old boy near death from hunger and exposure takes refuge in the cabin with him. The boy must have hospital treatment, but the escapee knows that if he tries to get the boy back to safety, the search parties will capture him and return him to prison. If he leaves the boy and continues his flight, the child will surely die. What should he do? |

| I think that the man who escaped prison, did the wrong thing by fleeing. Even though he did not commit the murder,escaping from a problem is not going to make it dissapear infinitly. It will only make it look worse if he escaped because then they will think he did infact commit the crime, if hes trying to get out. But since he had found the boy who was in trouble, he was kind of helping mankind in some way, while he was a jail escaper. It was nice of him to take the boy into the mountain cabin because he is already risking having to go back to jail, but nowon top of that he is doing a good thing to help a human being. Since the boy is in need of medical attention, i think that the escapee should take him down the mountain and take him to the hospital. The escapee is going to be caught and have to go back to jail no matter what at some point. So if he's going to be found now, it would be a good thing, because he would be saving anothers life. I think that teaches you a lesson: Don't run away from your problems, because no matter what you will need to face them in the end. |
