Who would you give up your seat to
I thought that I would give up my seat to the pregnant woman because if the vehicle suddenly moved she could fall over and hurt herself and the baby and also give the baby bad life because of a painfull spot.
At the beginning i thought that i would give up my seat to the man with two children but then i thought really hard and the man will not hurt himself or the kids.
The man who broke his leg could hold on at the same time as holidin one cruch to support himself .
The elderly lady could hold on with one hand or put her cane on the ground and hold on with two hands also the pregnant lady is carrying more weight than normal

Hi good_hedgehog! Thanks for your post about the activity from session one.
I awarded you a star here because you have shown really good reasoning that helps explain how you came to your decision. Well done! Can you think of a question that you might ask these people that would help inform your decision even more?
PS. if you have an idea that is similar to another post that is already on the Hub, it would be great for you to write it as a comment rather than a new post. That way, we will have juicy discussions all in the same place on the same topic!

I personally think everyone should get a seat! Even though some people are more deserving than others they all need a seat. People need to stop paying attention to their phones and start thinking about other people. Even though you really want a seat some people need one it more than you.

I disagree with giving the seat to the pregnant woman because she could easily hold on, and carrying a baby can be tiring but that doesn't mean she is ill. I would then offer to help the man with two children by holding one of the children so we could both use our other hand to hold on. Although the man with the broken leg will struggle to stand, he can put down one crutch and hold on but the old lady is weaker so she is at risk of falling and seriously injuring herself. For those reasons i would give my seat to the older lady.

I do not think that the pregnant woman should get the seat because if the elderly woman could fall and might even die

I agree because even though the pregnant woman is carrying a baby your putting someones life at risk by not giving the pregnant lady a seat

I love the amazing writing

I like it also how you wrote about everyone not just the pregnant woman.
For me I think it should be the man with crutches because even with crutches it's not that easy to walk. The pregnant woman should get the next seat I think because with a baby it might be hard with more weight to stand up.

I would give up my seat to a person with mental issues because they might not be able to stand the whole drive standing up and because i care for people in need or some one with mental issues .

well done i like your post i really like the way you mentioned all the people and there abilatys

I would say the old lady should deserve the seat because she probably isn't very strong and it would be dangerous for her to stand up, her grip not being very tight. Also it would just be respectful since she wouldn't have very long to live and it is kind to show somebody respect in their last years. Though if i was allowed to i would obviously give up seats for all them! All of them deserve it! Though i do agree with all your reasoning Good_Hedgehog.

If I had to chose the pregnant lady because she can really hurt her self or the baby if she slips or falls accidently .

I do agree about the respect thing and that you couldn't chose because I still don't know about my decision

An elderly person or a pregnant person because people that are old have fragile bones and a pregnant lady can hurt the baby if they fall.

I would give me seat up to the pregnant woman as she could have stomach pains at any moment! And if she has to hold her stomach in pain, she could fall over and end up injuring her head or arm.

I would give my seat up to the old lady because she has the weakest legs and she has gone through most of her life,
and she could have a heart attack at any moment, so if she does have a heart attack she won't fall on her face and die.

Well the old lady if she fell out of the seat she might hurt herself much more than if she tripped because she would be rolling because of the speed

I personally disagree with this statement, because even though the pregnant woman is carrying extra weight, due to the baby inside her, she could still hold onto a barrier as the baby is not making her any weaker as a person. However if the old lady would happen to fall over whilst holding the barrier due to her being weaker, because she is of older age, she is at a greater risk of injury, therefore making her more vulnerable as a person. As well as that, the majority of older people have illnesses (such as parkinsons, which becomes worse at an older age), making them more wobbly on their feet. I am not saying that the old lady does/doesn't have that but if she does then she is at an ever greater risk. That is just my opinion and I am not saying that anyone else is right/wrong.
