Can't judge the woman because none of us know what we would do in that situation?
Or are you positive that your first instinct would be to clutch your small child and protect them?
Yes, I cannot imagine leaving my child behind like that. Even if her intent is to distract the attacker, she should have at least pushed the child towards the door. I remember hiking when my sons were quite small and we startled a bear. I seriously thought, in all my years of being in the bush and encountering bears, that it was going to charge. I put my sons behind me and we all walked backwards slowly. But then again, the bear didn't have a knife or anything. lol

What say you?

I'm pretty sure I would grab DD and give the man whatever the fuck he wanted.
I know myself well enough to know my "fight or flight" response is mostly "fight." I have an almost supernatural adrenaline response to situations where danger presents itself, and I'm positive that I'd never bolt without my kids.
Before I watched it, my thought was, "I won't judge how somebody else reacts," but after watching it, "that stupid bitch didn't even hesitate and ran without her baby." She should have fucking thrown him her purse and ran with that baby. THAT should have been her reaction. My maternal instincts just went berserk watching that.
But... I've been in a lot of situations where I've had to think on my feet, and I've had some training on how to handle situations like that. So I'll try not to hate her fucking guts.
This happened right down the street from where i live and i cannot believ she left her 4yo and ran inside. I mean he could have taken her daughter as well! I am disgusted!
Trust me that general area is not a place to leave your child during in attack.
It looked like he was going to, I think he was as shocked as anybody she just ditched her kid. Thats insane.

It even kind of looked like she put her daughter in between herself and the attacker. Fucking rediculous. Pick up your babies and run if you are not going to fight. I am sorry I wouldn't leave my babies in any harm period.

I would never leave my child!
it did, and she didn't even hesitate when she ran off, she didn't even really have time to assess what was going on before she took off... then he grabbed the little girl by the shirt, and she didn't even come back towards the door until he let the little girl go to chase the mom. Fuck her. I'm angrier now after having more time to reflect.
