.....this mom has to live, if she can, with the guilt of this accident the rest of her life.....

Somehow, I doubt that will be a problem.

I'm reminded of the young couple my wife and I observed in a Target once.

The infant the mom was carrying began to choke, and the two of them began arguing over why the mom let baby have a skittle.

They continued to argue as I held out my hand for the child to begin baby Heimlich compressions.

They continued to argue as the skittle popped out.

They continued to argue as I wordlessly handed the baby back to the mother.

And they continued to argue as they walked away, baby in arm, without even acknowledging our existence.

To this day it was probably the most surreal experience of my life.

Things are the same here - it’s most important who wins the argument, or else who has the last word!
