it depends of the situation.

and no matter what..sometimes when you really care for someone..you would do everything…even though you have to meet your ‘day’ to save them!!

I agree with johnny, the people that you love are worth dying for, killing for, begging for and much more….

depends on what family you’re talking about… the one that you were born from or the one you made? how would your life be ruined? are you giving up vital organs or will you go through a temporary inconvenience? and if by losing “everything” you mean material things, i’m going with no, it’s not worth it.

this question’s bugging me. or rather, the immediate “yes, it’s worth it” replies… the wording alone implies that there’s potential resentment. is it worth it to ruin my life so someone else’s won’t suck? (not even that their lives will be absolute bliss as a result of whatever action you take to ruin your own on their behalf…) either way, i don’t think it’s that simple. say your family’s going to lose everything financially… is it worth it to rob a bank, get busted and do time? absolutely not.

If anon is speaking about children, then I absolutely think that they should do whatever they can to make things better for them. I am sorry that you do not think that is worth suffering over, however they are your responsibility in the end.

your family is important but you should also not commit suicide because ur saving your family. If you die as a matry it’s ok, but to die as a terrorist it’s a curse.Don’t just give your life Coz your family needs you alive too, but if only your death is the only option, go for it and save

If it’s your responsibility, if all really depends on you and that’s the only way to save them and otherwise something horrible will happen, then yes it’s worth it.

I just learned my parents are losing our house. They only need a few grand to keep it. I can’t have my brother and sister go through losing our house. I can’t work, I have no posessions to sell…but I have the gift of strategy…

What means gift of strategy? You mean you want to do something unlawful? If it’s something like that then it’s not good. Not only because it’ll ruin your life but noone needs to benefit at such price, unless they really don’t care about you.

Okay, NO NO NO NO. I did not realize it was so bad. You are an example to your siblings and doing that is going to destroy them Spending time in jail, away from them will KILL them. Is that worth it, at least now they have you there to support them. Who is going to be there if you are not>?
They NEED YOU, not money. If you are there they will get over the house thing, they are not going to get over loosing you.
