The Drowning Child

The Scenario

Your route to work takes you past a shallow pond. One morning you notice that a small child has fallen in and appears to be in difficulty in the water. The child is crying in distress and it seems is at risk of drowning. You are tall and strong, so you can easily wade in and pull the child out. However, although you’ll come to no physical harm if you rescue the child, you will get your clothes wet and muddy, which means you’ll have to go home to change, and likely you’ll be late for work.

In this situation, do you have a moral obligation to rescue the child?

I have a moral obligation to rescue the child.
I have no moral obligation to rescue the child.
