Answer 3

oh yes. i would. most definitely.  

Answer 4

Clearly when the time,if ever,came,you would bluff,it is human nature!!!

Answer 5

I think you would be surprised to find that you would.  I think it would be harder to watch someone die and not do anything.  When I was 10, I jumped into a canal to save my baby brother from drowning and I couldn't swim myself. He was 5. I guess I had more to do here. One time my daughter was going into the road and I dove to get her before she got hit. Your own self is secondary to that of others. That's the clearest memory I have of saving someone and that was forever ago.

Answer 6

most mothers know in their hearts that they would give up their lives for their children's sake.  This is instinctual and necessary to the continuation of the species... in fact, many mothers do give up their lives to make a better life for their kids, not so much in death, but in sublimating their own desires to make things possible for their kids.

beyond that, however, there are few instances where I would be willing to sacrifice my life, or die, for another person.

Answer 7

I don't believe that to be true,no one,i don't care who they are,would have enough courage to willingly DIE for another!

Answer 10

Answer 11

Yes.  And I would lay down my life for my country.  "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends" <-the Bible-John 15:13>  This is why I served in the US Army

Answer 12

Yes, I would....for my daughter. She is my life, so if her's is gone, mine might as well be too.
