Why not just save the adult first so he can help you save the child and the baby?I mean an adult is more competent than a child so he would be the best choice.

The child. It is aware of whats going on, and still has a full life ahead of it. THe baby is clueless, and the adult has lived

actually i would choose neither the question is too vague
first off it is not asking if you would save, change places with, or if you choose to sacrifice the baby, child, or adult
second of all the building is collapsing and if you were in any position to make some type of choice you would also be dead.

why are people assuming that the question is to save one of them

human nature dictates self preservation
one has to go against ones own nature to save someone else at the cost of your own life.

i know it is possible as i am an disabled Army medic
and it is a very hard thing to do and it requires serious training and willingness to forego your own life for a greater good

child.
the baby doesnt know what's happening........
the adult has lived more of its life than both.
the child has a lot of potential and knows what is happening. i couldn't live with myself knowing that i killed a child who was conscious of what is happening..

but you can live with your self saying you killed a baby???

None. Why are they hanging off a cliff in the first place? How did I get there? Did I just stroll along nonchalantly and see a baby hanging off a cliff? The baby could be IDK... hahaha... I still save none. BTW... how would a baby hang on a cliff?

None of em...I'd let em all die...And I'd watch. Watching I would wonder why I didn't feel anything when they all fell to their deaths...

Then I would remember I'm late for an Ice cream date, and keep on moving.

The reason (I think) people are choosing the baby is because the baby has the most potential in the world, and saw the least of it. Letting that one die, and others live would be unfair towards the baby more than the child or the adult, the baby wouldn't have even gotten a chance to live and it'd be considered unfair to let others live who have already seen at least some of what's out in the world.

Of course, I could be completely wrong :3. I choose the baby of course.

A child has just as much potential as a baby so your statement is somewhat irrelevant.

I choose the child> the adult due to the fact that it is impossible for a baby to hold on to a collapsing building like seriously what the heck you was thinking.:sy:

Either the baby or the child...

The children and babies are the kings of this world. We must protect them because they are our future, our pride, our students and our survival.

That is what i have interpreted from Asuma, Shikaku and Shikamaru's conversation (if any of you recall).

It depends on who the people are. If it's a random baby, random child, and your mom; moral instincts would be the baby but in reality, you'd choose your mom.

I was going to say that part about how in the world can a baby hang off a building?

Child because:

1) Because he's already lived through some of his life, unlike the baby.

2) He has more to live for than the adult.

3) He's lighter than the adult.

4) Because everybody's picking the baby.

Wait, if i'm saving one and the building's collapsing, there's only three places i could be, on the roof, in the building, or on the ground. If i'm inside or on the roof then i'll die, collapsing with the building. If i'm on the ground i'll get crushed by falling building pieces. D. Myself
