Because of the discussion "I fell into the water with your mother, who do you save first?" This unsolvable question, the friends decided to open the love legal counsel topic.
This unsolvable problem is born out of a famous ethical problem, the tram problem:
A madman tied five innocent people to the tram track, and an out-of-control tram came toward them, and luckily you could pull a lever and get the tram to drive to another track, but also tied a man on that other track.
How do you do that?
Many people may simply say that of course you saved five people, but what if the other person is your lover?
As mentioned in the previous article, a few years ago, there was also a similar hypothetical discussion in an issue of Qibao, which was simply to "blow up" Jia Ling to save hundreds of other people. I cried because I "brought in" it — imagining myself as the Jia Ling who was going to be "blown up" to death. But it seems that in our minds, I have no reason for anyone to choose to save me.
Originally, this topic was set to be short and interesting, but it seems that it cannot be done. Let's ask some questions for everyone to think about.
Because of different positions and different perspectives, many questions are doomed to fail to have perfect answers:
▌ The source of responsibilities and obligations is usually an obligation under the law, or an obligation under a contract, or an obligation arising from a prior act. The first two are easy to understand, and the latter can be an example: I can't stop farting, I need to apologize to everyone and open the window as soon as possible to ventilate or take other ways to let the smell dissipate.
▌ In "I fell into the water with your mother, who did you save first?" In this problem, there was once a popular saying that seemed to have a legal basis, "Save the mother, do not save the law!" Don't believe it gives you a point of view! ”
Parents have the duty to raise, educate and protect their minor children.
Adult children have the duty to support, support and protect their parents.
- Article 26 of the Civil Code
But what is the obligation of "protection" here, the burden of protection? Or is it given a higher priority than others?
▌ Assume that the above "protection" obligations include a rescue obligation similar to when falling into a water. So if when the parents fall into the water, the adult children rescue, and then the parents are afraid of struggling, and subconsciously kick at the moment when they are about to go ashore, causing the adult children to fall into the water, does the spouse of the adult child have the right to ask the parents for compensation?
▌ If the above parents and children are a family without compensation, what about changing the person who fell into the water from parents to girlfriends? That is, the girlfriend falls into the water, the boyfriend rescues, the girlfriend is afraid of struggling, and subconsciously kicks at the moment when she is about to go ashore, causing the boyfriend to be injured and unable to save herself, does the girlfriend who is rescued have the right not to save the boyfriend who is struggling in the water? Does a girlfriend have the right to be "cowardly"? Does the boyfriend's family have the right to claim compensation from the girlfriend?

Cowardice is not actually a right, it is a normal physiological reaction of people. Morality requires man according to the highest standards, but the law cannot, and the law usually requires man according to the minimum standards acceptable to society.
The law does not punish cowardice, but requires that cowardly people who benefit from the help of others (emergency shelter, emergency assistance, etc.) should be given appropriate compensation to the injured rescuers. It's actually a balance.
Something like, "I fell into the water with your mother, who will you save first?" This kind of unsolvable problem is difficult to solve through reason, and can only be resolved through love.
If you love each other, you should not want the other party to choose between your mother and you, because the other party chooses not to choose is painful, and you will also face pain: if the other party chooses your mother, you will "die"; if the other party chooses you, the other party will even give up on your mother, and he will give up on you in the future!
Love, selfless love will be invincible!
