“What Would You Do In These Situations?”: The Ultimate Moral Dilemma Poll

This is illegal in Canada, and should be reported.

Neither and both... I will leave the chat quietly just to let my ex know. Actually, nah, I've already sent my ex a text about it

As much as I wish my ex gets treated the way he treated me, that's still getting reported because it's s****y to do this.

It’s illegal in uk, ( not that I’d b e in a freaking group chat anyways lol but if I was ) I ain’t letting that happen it’s despicable even if I hated said ex ! and you can actually go to prison for doing that to

Keep it until the next work day to either drop it off at the right adress or the police or try to reach the owner, if that is possible.

It won't be that much time or effort.

Hopefully the ID has the correct address to which I can return the wallet and it's contents to the correct owner. If that doesn't work, try call the banks to (most ppl now a days have a bank card) inform the owner of the location of wallet. .

I once left my wallet at a subway. They held it for me. Everything was intact. I'm still grateful several years later.

I found a wallet in a parking lot. No cash (and I prayed there hadn't been any cash in it when it was lot!), there was an ID. I searched the name on FB, and the match was a member of the local area group I'm in. So I pinged her via the group, and sent her a message on FB messenger. She was able to tell me what parking lot she'd lost the wallet in, and I got it back to her that same day. She was very grateful, asked if there was anything she could do for me. My mom had passed about a month and a half earlier, and I had been missing her terribly, so I said the only thing I really want right now is a hug. We hugged, it felt like a gift from my mama, and she went on her way.

It would have the first option except for the therapy requirement. Should have ended after clean.

I lost a friend who was cheating on his partner because I refused to help him do it. Naturally he told his partner all sorts of lies about me to explain the end of the friendship.

I would encourage them to clean up their mess on their own and remind them to not drag me into their relationship problems.

Go to therapy for cheating 😂😂😂jeez can’t half tell these are all USA based lmao ,therapy this therapy that ,can’t anyone living there deal with life on things like this on their freaking own 😂( I get the ptsd , the having been a b u s e d n sa,d but normal life ye gods n little fishes 😂) I’ll go with come clean but not the therapy bit 🤦‍♀️

So 50% of the people taking this quiz are saying they were knowingly enable child labour? That’s a harrowing thought.

I don't boycott, I eliminate. I've dropped numerous companies permanently and am working on others. Amazon has been the hardest, but I went from $100s per month to about $60 ‐ my goal is $0 by December and canceling Prime.

Such allegations almost never can be certified.

Talk to them openly. They are my friends. They already know I‘m not rich. 🙄

If they're the type who checks (and judges) on who gives a gift, maybe there's no need to attend their wedding.

I would hope that my presence at their day is more important than a gift

Dumb question lol This isn't a moral dilemma; it's common sense.

I would end the ride, but also call the police. Sorry not sorry, but if they're sleep deprived they shouldn't be behind the wheel in the first place. I would feel tremendous regret if they went along their way after I got out and learned they caused a bad accident or killed someone when I could have done more to prevent that from happening.

How about point out that they appear to be falling asleep and ask if they need to take a break or go home, and you'll catch another ride.

Yes! I’ve always wanted to die in an Uber! I’d keep my mouth shut and hope for the best.

There are graceful ways to decline.

If this situation actually happens to you it's tough to negotiate. You want to support your friend, but want to protect your integrity. Had a friend who wrote a book which was terrible. I bought the book but declined to review it. So wish I could have loved it!

It depends on what their product is. If it's something harmful like diet pills, I'd obviously say no. But if it's something like their paintings or their songs that I don't personally like, I'd support them because I value friendship more than reputation and me not liking their art doesn't mean that all of my audience would dislike it as well. It's not causing any harm to anyone to share it.

Tell them "Thanks for the info. When I get some time, I'll check it out more thoroughly and think about it."

Or tell them how they could improve their product...

I could ask them to buy me a new one, but I know it's likely not going to happen. But I'm unsure how a dog ruins a jacket your wearing. I wouldn't be wearing such expensive clothes I didn't thrift, anyways.

I’d let it slide but I can assure you I’d be seething about it inside. I’d also be questioning maintaining a friendship with someone clearly doesn’t care about the damage their dog has done

These questions are far too "black and white" for reality. Each of these have more than one way of resolving the moral dilemma.

My dog does this, unfortunately, he's 9 yro, super smart and super obstinate! I have tried everything to get him to stop jumping. I don't need him knocking down some elderly person, pregnant person or little kid. No jump harnesses have Zero effect. I have trained all of my dogs to not rush in the door, up/down stairs (especially not with humans on stairs), etc ... but this one? He refuses to comply with the no jumping rule. Good thing I don't hang out with humans much anymore. Not since COVID

If I had to be worried about someone's kid getting in serious trouble for accidentally breaking something, that someone wouldn't be my friend.

One would hope the parents wouldn’t go ott on the kid for a freaking accident , cos if they did I’d most def have something to say about that , although tbh teaching moment I’d tell the kid to fess up like now !!

Pay for it

Neither. I would buy the formula for them and then meet them outside and let them know about resources in the area that can help them. Morality isn't a binary of say something / don't say something.

Everyone here saying "Buy it" are right on point. Good pandas! :)

I’d either look the other way. , or id buy it for them , I’d never see kids or animals go hungry if i could help

I used to hang out with one girl who decided to steal something at a big box store, with me and her baby along, putting us both at risk of getting in trouble. She didn't do it out of desperation or need. Only because she wanted to save herself the money and not have to pay. It gives you a whole other perspective of shoplifters. I work in a thrift store, and see a lot of thieves who go in like they own the place. But then there are homeless people who come in, go to the staff asking for free clothing during winter. There are people who are willing to help. Maybe a customer would be obliged to pay for the formula if asked. Maybe the shopkeeper could put it on a tab. Maybe the shopkeeper knows about an outreach or family community program. I want to make it clear, though, that I don't blame parents for struggling to feed their babies formula. It's insanely expensive. I blame the companies for making it so unaffordable. I just don't believe stealing is the right solution.
