Week 5

1. An older relative of yours is terminally ill. Your parents ask your advice about "pulling the plug". What do you tell them? 2. You are a parent. Your child beats up younger kids. Talking doesn't seem to help. Do you spank your child? 3. A kid wants to buy your jug saw puzzle at your garage sale. One piece is missing. Do you tell the kid?

  1. 1. I would tell my parents not to pull the plug. The older relative is still alive until they pass. If my parents were to pull to want to pull the plug i wpuld tell them that it should only be done if the person is braindead
    2. I would not spank the child. Instead i would force my child to apologize to every single child that he or she has beat up. Them i would take away all of my childs privaleges. If the did not end it i would give away all of the things that was bought for my child that is not needed to the people he or she beat up
    3. I would tell the kid. If the kid still wanted to buy the puzzle i would still sell it to him or her. I would though give the kid a discount on the puzzle.

  2. 1.) I would tell my parents to do whatever a doctor recomends because they always have the patients best interest in mind. 2.) I would not spank the child because that would be counterproductive and encourage more violence. I would take my child to therapy. 3.) I would give away the puzzle because I feel weird taking little kids money especially for something do small as a used puzzle. Lauren Bartels

  3. 1. i would tell my parents that they should make the decision because im just a kid and they are the parents the decision is should not be given to a kid but i would give my input that they should not pull the plug.
    2.no because they would get the idea from me that hurting someone else fixes everything.
    3.yea but i would make it a smaller price.

  4. 1. I would tell them not to pull the plug because you never know what can happen. God can pull out another miracle and that person might live but you really wont know unless you let the person live for as long as possible and leave the rest in God's hands.
    2. I would spank my child just like my parents did to me. If they wont learn the easy way then they will learn the hard way.
    3. I would tell the kid because its just a little yard sale and it wouldn't be right to have that kid leaving my house thinking he had a full puzzle and when he got home he found an incomplete puzzle.

  5. 1. No, i would not tell them to pull the plug. God works in mysterious ways. Ill never give up my trust in God, and i dont support taking away life. When its your time to die, you will die.
    2.If my child wants to hit people for no good reason, ill hit him just like hes hitting them. It only takes one good time, he'll learn.
    3. No, business is business. The child will learn for the future to check before he buys. We would both gain from the situation.

  6. When it comes to pulling the plug it depends on what kind of situation the relative is in if they are suffering i would rather have them be dead then continue to live suffering for one more minute, 2. If my child wants to hit well then he will be hit too. if striking children did not produce results then why would it be an option at all. Now it is not my first course of action but kids can be stubborn bratty and feel entitled so if my kid beats up another kid i wonder how he would feel if someone beat him up? I ;m not endorsing physical punishment but i do find it effective. 3. To me this is a very simple answer if the kid wants to buy the puzzle and it's missing a piece then i would tell him its probably a 5$ puzzle that you're selling for a dollar or less anyways.

  8. 1. Pull the plug? What? Over my dead body! People could be in comas for years and wake up! I aint risking that! I would make sure the plug stays inside that wall until the hospital takes every penny in the bank!
    2. That child would get some serious ass whooping! What gives them the right to discipline their younger siblings when they have not done anything wrong? That sort of behavior would be disciplined right away! They should learn to respect EVERYONE, even those "under" them.
    3. Honesty is the best policy, if someone is selling me something, I would want to know everything about it, because I aint about to get ripped off! I would let the kid know, hey one piece is missing, use your imagination, and sell it to him if he still wanted it. Maybe I would give it to him for free depending on how much I bought the puzzle for, or if hes like four years old.

  9. 1. If this had happened I would tell my parents not to pull the plug because their could be a chance they could live.
    2.I would not spank my child, I would probably tell her or she to apologize or they would be punished . if I saw it happen again then the punishment would be worse.
    3. I would tell the child that the puzzle piece was missing and if he didn't want it, then oh well. I mean I would understand if the child didn't want to buy it because it was missing a piece.

  12. 1. I wouldn't tell them to pull the plug unless my family member was in pain while trying to live.
    2. I would do the same beating to him as he did to my younger kids so he/she knows how it feels.
    3. I would tell him only because he might not care if one is missing.

  15. 1. I would only pull the plug if they were in pain all the time and didn't want to live like that anymore. 2. i wouldn't hit my kid but I would just take everything away so he wouldn't want to be bullying other kids. 3. I would tell them but they probably wouldn't care if one piece is missing.
