^ what he said. There is a lot going on and it isn't so simple as the other one placed it to be. Daughter wasn't alienated, his daughter was the whole world to him and the only person who, by his words, could stop his outbursts of anger from drinking, which was coming from depression, which was coming from...something to do with his wife. (can't comment on that part, already forgot the deal there). The thing is, you can feel sorry for all of them, and you have to make some sacrifices, your moral compass...saving children that could make the future brighter, or Braon and wife who had issues of their own when they are around age 60 already?

The thing is, story made it so that you could meet the cahracter and understand him, befriending him so to say, which in return would give you this hard decision, and we all know that children are in no fault at anything here, so that pretty much skips the part where we are introduced to another character to which we might have felt a sympathy as well, creating this equal sided decision, though in this case it's simply having children vs befriended Baron and his family.

It's almost like as if have to sacrifice your friend and his family to bunch of children, or wise versa... so choose, which one you would take, the moral compass or sympathy and knowledge that came from knowing your friend thorough times.
