Dear LIB readers; my dad murdered our 6month old baby to save us

Sounds like a scene from the holocaust movie, The Pianist. But just in case it's real, please read and advice.
I am 19years old. My  parents and I were based in the north but recently we just moved to our village in Owerri due to the destruction of our house and properties in Yobe state.
In 2013, there was an attack in our area by BokoHharam. So many people were killed so we had to hide somewhere for our safety and we were 3 kids, my parents and our last child who was 6month old. While hiding, the Boko Haram gun men were aproaching us. Hearing the sound of their guns, our 6month old baby started crying and the men were not far from us.
So, my dad needed to save us and he strangled the baby to death. Now the five of us are alive and healthy but staying in the village. My mum is yet to get over the fact that our baby was killed to save us all, she keeps blaming my dad for killing her child. Now, she wants a divorce. Please I will like to know, did my dad do anything wrong by killing the baby to save us?

What your dad did is bad but if he had not done that you won't be alive today. He should have just stuffed the baby's mouth with something. My parents told me many baby's were killed like that during the war.

He killed a child. Yes he was wrong. Your mom wants to divorce now because of the act yo fathet did; why didn't your mom stop him then so that the baby could continue to cry and.....

Lemme put it this way... If u all died and u meet God and ask God why e didn't save you from the brutality of Boko Haram maybe God wud hav asked you the same question too. Now let's put the question in a reverse statement and God ask u why havnt u saved urself wen u can????? Now that ua saved u know what the option is for saving urself.

Your dad was facing a near death experience he acted out of adrenaline that's why he couldn't think of a better option as at that time. I feel ur mom's grieve but if that baby kept crying that would trace u people and killed all of u including the baby.

Anon 9:25, don't say things like these, you have never find your self in a situation like this. Have u ever heard the story of maitasine in yola, then Gongola state. This story is true cos it happened to a family I knew in maiduguri some years back.

I have seen it in a holocaust movie.

shut up, oponu....this is a simple case of life and death. What wud u av done, risk the life of ur whole family because ur last baby wont stop crying? Truth be told, if that baby was nt killed, none of them including the baby will live to tell the story.

Nigerians are so annoying, judgmental and irritating...all these hypocrites saying he should have bought more time if he was a real man...imagine the situation in your head, it was obviously not only one terrorist, boko-haram come in large groups so there was obviously no other wise decision at that point. even the baby's cry would have been too sudden for the man to think straight at that point. it was just that the man was put in a bad situation, a very bad situation..to be in a war environment is not beans especially with a 'crying' baby

Fake or not, i believe it was a case of "desperate situation requires desperate measures".

ur mum needs to understand that ur dad too is going through alot of pain for making that decision. she shouldnt blame him as if only makes things worse. what u guys should do is seek counselling. talk to someone

You sound so stupid! The baby was not hungry he was scared!

Honestly, i cant believe ur dad strangled the baby intentionally, it is possible the baby was crying and ur dad covered his mouth and he continue crying and struggling and ur dad had to hold him harder..if u mum was d closest to him mayb he would hv substituted covering his mouth with her breast..

Take heart

My God, your father has committed a great offence, he should have asked your mom to breastfeed the 6month old baby just to stop him from crying..... killing the baby wasn't the solution abeg.

no one, and I repeat, no one has d ryt to take anoda's life no matter d circumstances. ur dad shud av given d baby to ur mum so she can stuff one of her breasts in his mouth to quiet him or better still, hold d baby's mouth shut as best he cud. i cudn't live wt ur dad after wat he did if I were ur mum. i'd never feel safe wt him. who knows, thr may com a tym he may do d same to one of d oda kids.

I think what he did is kind of a bad tin, he could have actually covered the baby's mouth forcefully allowing d infant τ̣̣̥
