Would u volunteer 4 a sibling or best friend at the reaping?

Would u volunteer for a sibling or best friend at the reaping?
I mean, of course most would say yes. But think of everything you would give away...
Your whole life.
I mean, the book was in the point of view of a girl who won.
But imagine if u had been little Rue and she had cvolunteered for a brother or sister and
died with a spear in your guts... What do u think now?

I definitely would because
1. They probably wouldn't stand a chance, and I would
2. They would mean a lot to me
3. They would definitely get themselves killed either stepping off their plate too early, or just not hiding or running quick enough.
But I bet I could win. : )

I don't really have a friend I would sacrifice myself for in the same gender
( because remember, you can only take the place of someone who is your gender )
though I have a brother that I would take his place
and other people that, of course, I would want to do that to

Well...first of all I can't technically for a sibling. I'm a girl and I only have brothers. But if I could, I'd like to think that I would...although they are a lot older now, so they could probably survive as well as me. So maybe the answer is that I would not. I guess I'm not sure, I'd like to think that my braver tendency would win out, and it would have when they were younger, but I don't know now. But I know I could for my best friend. I would do it in a heart beat.

I would do it for my little sister for sure. She reminds me a lot of Prim...we are really close too and i would never let her be taken away like that...especially since i'm a lot older than her and stand a better chance in the games. i would never want to lose her :(

Yeah, it would be sad ( devastating ) not to be able to volunteer for someone you love.

I don't have any siblings but I might. It really depends. I'm so glad the Hunger Games don't really exist. As much as I love the books.
