Robot: LULLABY MODE ACTIVATED! (Voice goes softer and sings lullabies.)
Yeah, if it's a choice between the mother OR the child, I'd still say the mother. She's already grown and developed and has people who care about her and such; basically, she already has a life. That's not to say that the child isn't a living creature already, just that he hasn't made friends, gotten a job, etc. Not to mention the difficulty of taking care of a child for the first months of its life after birth if mommy isn't around to breast feed. Once again, it's an unfortunate case of choosing who lives and who dies.
