I think we all have that same initial thought.

That's the big one. You kill your kids when you take that do over. You get to live this new life with the guilt of knowing you wiped your kids out of existence.

As for 9/11...

I think about the Butterfly Effect movies. They were getting do-overs, but but getting a different outcome didn't mean a better outcome.

I think I'd still choose the do-over, even as much as I enjoy my life and love my family.

Not sure if I can wipe my kid. Figuratively.

Essentially murdering my kids is my hang up as well.

This timeline would still exist, I'd just have my consciousness in a different one. It's all good.

So you wouldn't be a quantum murderer. Just a quantum deadbeat dad

There's already an infinite number of Me in other timelines; I can't be responsible for ALL of them
