A man's controversial statement has gone viral on social media after he claimed he would choose his child over his wife during childbirth complications. The man, identified as @Chimaszn, stated that in a scenario where both his wife and newborn's lives are at risk, he would prioritize his child's life. @Chimaszn made this revelation in response to a tweet from a female user who argued that a doctor should save her life instead of her baby's in such a situation. However, @Chimaszn maintained that he would instruct the medical personnel to save both his wife and child if possible, but if not, he would choose his child's life. In his words, "I’d tell them to save both and if they can’t, then I have no choice than to go for the baby. can’t leave my blood to go that way."
The man's comment has elicited mixed reactions from social media users. While some users agreed with his stance, others criticized him for what they deemed an insensitive and selfish decision. One user, Kussman, remarked that it would be challenging for @Chimaszn to find someone to raise the child like the mother he killed, given how busy and absent fathers typically are. Another user, DjSBlaze, questioned @Chimaszn's paternity by asking how sure he was that the child was his blood.
Nevertheless, @Chimaszn's comment has sparked a debate about the value of a newborn's life versus that of its mother, with some people arguing that the mother's life should take precedence in such situations.
