1. If I were Laius, I wouldn’t have the courage to kill my own child, I wouldn’t want to hurt someone who is my family just because of a prophecy. I think that instead of killing my own son there would be better solutions to solve this problem. Even if it means to risk my own life, I would still want my own son to be able to grow and learn. I think that even if we try to avoid this, we wouldn’t be able to change anything as it is his fate and destiny to kill his own father.

2. If I were Oedipus, I think that I wouldn’t react the same way as he did. I think that I would get mad because my parents hid something that big and important from me but not to the point that I will kill someone because of my anger. I would just accept that they hid this from me for a reason.

1. Personally, if I were Lauis, I would not order someone to kill my own son just because of the prophecy since, whether the prediction comes true or not, I would rather raise him to be a nice person than let him suffer a wretched existence. It's not enough to murder him because of a prophecy; I should treat him like any other father would and try my best to nurture him.

2. If I were Oedipus, I wouldn't feel the same way; I'd probably be grateful that they raised me despite the fact that I don't share their blood. It can be disappointing to learn that they withheld this information from me, but I can understand why they did so.

1. If I was Laius, I will not be killing my own son. In my opinion, I would feel contempt with raising my son well even if i know one day he'll be the cause of my own doom. Just judging by my morals, I would raise my son well and make him feel like a normal child.

2. I would consult my adoptive parents first rather than running away, since running away would just get worse. I would also need some time to think about my emotions then find my real parents.

If I were Laius, I would not order someone to kill my son just because of a prophecy. We cannot change what the prophecy told but killing your own son is not a way to avoid the situation. Instead, in my opinion , I would raise him since it’s the responsibility of a father to take care of his own child.

2. At first I would get disappointed knowing that I was only adopted. But I'd also be thankful to my adoptive parents for raising me.

1. If I were Lauis I would not order someone to kill my son, instead I would keep him close to me and create a good relationship. This way, our twisted fate could be avoided.

2. I would not react the way Oedipus did. If were him, I would be thankful to the parents who accepted me and raised me as their own. I would just continue on with my life.

1. I wouldn't want to kill someone who has my flesh and blood. Killing him seems to be dangerous and brutal, so I can't afford to actually let someone kill him for me, and for the sake of the prophecy to halt. Prophecies are meant to be fulfilled in the greek mythology, however it can be avoided in some ways but not something that someone already did.
2. I may be disappointed that they lied to me, but I would react the opposite of Oedipus and accept the fact that I was adopted. I should be appreciated that they actually raised me and saved me from my father's decision instead of being angry and frustrated since that wouldn't solve anything.

1. If I were Lauis, I would not order someone to kill my son just because of a prophecy because first of all, I would not dare in a million years to kill my own son. I believe that helping and guiding him in the best way until he grows up and be a moral man.

2. If I were Oedipus, I would react the same way, wherein I would be shocked and disappointed to find out that I would be adopted, but of course I would be still grateful to the people who raised me.

1. If I was Laius, I would have probably ordered to kill my son as well. Assuming that during this era, they believed in the prophecies heavily and seeing that Laius was a selfish king who cared more about his kingdom more than his own son, he ordered him to be taken away. Of course, if I was not the character Laius, I would have not ordered to kill him because if a prophecy.

2. If I was Oedipus, just finding out that I was adopted, I would have reacted the same way. Even now, adopted children that find out the truth would be confused and would likely want to seek out their  biological parents themselves and why they gave them out.

1. If I were to be put in Laius' position, I wouldn't bring myself to kill my own son. Although I'm well-aware of the prophecy's agonizing sufferings and unerasable nature, I see no need to kill an infant for a saying that could merely be false. Moreover, in the case where the prophecy is told to be true, I still do wish to be humane and actually form a good relationship with Oedipus, in an attempt to take control and monitor his actions for the purpose of preventing any reckless decisions that can contribute to the cruel prophecy.

2. Like Oedipus, I too would feel the same after living my whole life with such a lie. Just the fact that he was abandoned (and almost slain) by his own birth parents is enough to make someone furious. Therefore, in the end, I personally think that his reaction was not only justified, but is also the same to what I would feel if I were in his shoes.

1.) If I were Laius, I would not kill my son because he is my child. There may be a chance that the prophecy is not true. I would not kill him because it is very brutal. I am not going to kill my own son just because someone predicted it. I would not do the same as Laius when he left his son on a mountain. I will just take care of him and raise him to be a better person.

2.) If I were Oedipus, I would be shocked because I knew that my parents are not my real parents. I would still thank the people who raised me.

1. If I were Laius, I would not order someone to kill my son just because of a prophecy. I will just let him be adopted by other couples who want to have a child. Doing something not right especially to my own son just because someone said so is such a cruel thing to do.

2. If I were Oedipus, I would not react the same way as he did when he found that he was adopted. I will just accept the truth and continue living in my life in peace.

1. If I were Laius, I think I would not do the same thing because I couldn't find it in my heart to kill a child even if it costs my life. I would just cherish the moments I would have with my son. In the end I would just do my best to protect him and make him understand.

2. If I were Oedipus, I would still get mad but not to the point where I would end up hurting someone. I think I would have a point where I would question everything, get mad but understand everything in the end.

1. If I were Laius, I wouldn't kill my own son just because of a prophecy. It is inhuman to kill your own child. If I wanted to protect myself then I should just teach my son good things so that when he grows up he won't be able to hurt anyone and I won't have to worry about myself. I may have myself killed if I keep my son, but anything can happen so why not change the future before it's too late.

2. Of course not. I may have mixed feelings and I would wonder why they hid that from me but I would feel happy and feel sad at the same time, thinking that (the adoptive parents) were my actual parents my whole life. But I am looking forward to meet my true parents. As shocking as is, I'll be forever thankful that people like them took me in and took care of me.

1. I believe that we have the power to mold and shape our lives as we were given the ability to choose which thoughts and emotions to give power to. Therefore, if I were Lauis, I would not order someone to kill my son because the prophecy, for me, is not the  end all be all and that child is still a living human being. Therefore, it would be wrong for me to take another person's life.

2. If I were Oedipus, I would have reacted similarly because it would be upsetting to find out that my parents have been keeping such a lie. Finding out that your parents aren't actually your biological parents is very shocking. Therefore, I would have probably ran away as well.

1. If I were Lauis, as cruel as it sounds, I would order someone to kill my son. Not because of my own selfishness, but because I'd like to spare him the suffering that he's bound to experience. The prophecy is one that's meant to be fulfilled, and it cannot be avoided no matter what Oedipus does later on. No matter how hard he tries to deny the truth, it's going to happen because it's fate. So I believe that the best thing for me to do as a father is to end his life before it can even begin. I already know that his life is going to end in a tragedy- one that he cannot escape. And I don't want him to experience the pain that comes with his realization in the end.

2. If I were Oedipus, I think I would've reacted in a similar way. Although I'm grateful for the people who took me in and raised me into the person that I became. As much as I'd like to simply accept it and live my life the way that it is, I can't help but feel curious and have the desire to seek out my real parents. I wouldn't feel anger, but I'd be determined to find out the truth. Just like Oedipus, I'd like to go on my own journey to find out what's been hidden from me my whole life. However, I'd like to keep the prophecy in mind and be wary of what possible situations could occur from my actions.

1.) In my opinion, If I were Laius I wouldn't kill my son just because of a prophecy because as a father, even if  it means risking my life I wouldn't want my son to feel worthless or feel as if he shouldn't been born in the first place because it wasn't even his fault that he was destined to be born like that. I would rather help him grow to be an independent & mature son, I want to raise him properly with good morals & values so that he won't grow as a cruel man, although these things are unavoidable, I want him to experience what it's like to be loved & cared for by his own parents.

2.) If I were Oedipus, I would not react the same way because although it was very shocking for me, of course I would feel rage and anger because I would question them, why did they did this to me or why didn't they accept me as their own son. However, I wouldn't hurt anyone, especially my parents because whether I like it or not, they are still my own parents. I would rather ask them and forgive them for what they had done to me.

1. If I were the King of Thebes and a person who loves his own child, I wouldn’t let my son to be killed just because of a prophecy. I would just let other people care for him or train him myself and do all the things I can to avoid such tragic prophecy.
2. If I were Oedipus, I would have the same and better reaction than him. At first I would be shocked but at the same time, I would also  think of the possible things that would make my true parents have me adopted. But whatever the true reason may be and how hard it may be to accept, i have choice but to accept.
