Somebody Was Asked...

..."Given a choice, would you rather not have been born at all?"

If they answered "I would rather not have been born at all", what would you think and feel about that person?

I'm guessing you're not talk about an angry child that says they wished they hadn't been born.

So I would think they, whoever they is, were having a tough time of it. And might feel a little sorry for them.

Imagine you are in a room of unborn 'things' and being asked "Do you want a chance at life" Who wouldn't want to experience living.

What if there were no more hypothetical questions?

 

[HawkEye244]

I wouldn't judge them on it. I'd want to know more

 

[securespark]

Yeah, I'm sorry to have piqued your interest but I'm really not sure if it would be wise to say more.

But thank you for your responses. I really appreciate them.

You Okay SS?

 

[securespark]

Thank you for asking aj, I'm fine. Someone I know was asked this question and gave that answer.

It surprised me.

They told me they were angry and disappointed life had turned out how it did for them and if they had known it would be that way and had a choice, they would decline the option of life.

Good.

"I would rather not have been born at all"
a sign off frustration desperation despair
a cry for help
a need for a shoulder to cry on
would i be worried yes
would i take action depends on the person and the feel
you need to know the background
the actions that day and recently
is medication drink or drugs involved
does there mood worry you
can you go home without worrying excessively??
can you hand the person over to a more informed better equipped person or group ??

This is interesting stuff.
I had a loved one commit suicide, but that was for 'not wanting to be here' reasons.
I think it's really interesting that this person wishes they were never born at all. Strange.

Any more details. ???

big-all:

Have talked to this person and I am satisfied no further action needs to be taken.

LMB: Sorry, no can do.

 

[LastMagicBean]

I bet it's got something to do with being born with a condition of some sort, a disability.???

 

[securespark]

No.
