A question of moral. Where do you stand?

You have in front of you a 7 year old kid. You are told that he will die a horrible and painful death 6 months from now.
You have two options that are assumed to be legal in this scenario
1) Let him die a painful death 2) Kill the kid now.
What do you do?

The kid isn't even related to you...
Seems like the murder should be up to the parents. WHERE ARE THE PARENTS TO ALIEVATE THE CHILD'S PAIN?

Told he has 6 months to live, huh? Told by who? That seems like some crucial information.

Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

What do you do?
1)not your kid 2)who are you to cut a life short by 6 months 3)most people don't kill easy 4)told BY WHOM
No moral person will deprive a kid of the final 6 months of their life to pre-empt euthanasia.

I refuse to add an m to who. Not how I roll.
Unless you were told by God, there is no way of knowing when someone will die.

Kidnap the child and sell him to a pedophile ring so he kills himself.

that's the kid's decision, not yours. there's also the question of who told you and how they know this. then there's option c: let them live 6 months minus however long it takes to peacefully die right before their time is up, aka why are you killing them now when they're not even going to die until 6 months down the road?
sounds to me like this whole scenario is just downright fishy. might as well just let them live their life. we're all living with the possibility that we could die a horrible painful death at any moment anyways - most of us just ignore this fact because it's uncomfortable. for all you know a meteor could crash down and smash down, crushing and searing your organs at any moment. a maskhole could decide to get so mad they decide to stab or shoot you when you refuse to ring their groceries up at the check out line due to the governer's orders against ringing up people not wearing a proper mask indoors. (i personally have to make peace with the fact that this could happen to me or my associates every day i go to work.)
you just never know.

Just murder everyone involved. How would they know the kid was going to die painfully in 6 months...? Easy, they planned on murdering him 6 months from now.
Checkmate.

Not enough info, what is kids quality of life, good, can he play with other kidds. Little known fact kids are extraordinarily resistant to pain over long terms. And even fater cancen ptaiens who are children depending on the type can have a semi normal life.
