Will you share your food (serious question)

I fell at the first hurdle.  I chose the option stating that there is no moral obligation to rescue the child.

It's very precise in its wording, but it's trying to weed out moral nihilists from the git go. A lot of ethics thought experiments fall flat if there is no moral obligation driving one choice over another. To just see the ideas put plainly (no interactive elements) go here:
