I would immediately help them up!. Every human being means a lot to me, no matter how old they are, everyone's life has a purpose!. I would never ever turn my back on someone in trouble!. I would truly hate myself if I ever did that!. I love all people, no matter who they are!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I should have to pick them up, and then help them however I could!. We seem to be losing the sense of community that existed some 50 or so years ago, and have become unfeeling and ungenerous!. In the name of humanity I couldn't not help anyone who fell down - I wouldn't care how old they were!. People who need help, need help, and that's it!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

This actually happened to me about 40 years ago!. I lived in a tiny village, and had gone to the eensy-weensy food store!. When I came out of the store I heard a faint, feeble, high-pitched voice saying "Help me!. Somebody help me!." I went through the hedge separating the parking lot from the house next door, and found a little old woman on the ground!. She had fallen while doing some gardening!. She was a widow and had no man to help her out!. I walked over to her, got her under the arms, and lifted her to her feet!. She scolded me, saying "You shouldn't have done that, there's nothing to you!." Then she added "But thank you anyway!." Made me chuckle!. Typical motherly type woman!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

First I would ask if they are ok make sure they didn't injure themselves from falling and if everything is cool ( cause wouldn't want to add insult to injury by moving them if they hurt themselves ) than I would help them get back up!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

That's a bit of a no-brainer!. Of course I would and it's hard to imagine that there would be such a swine that would walk past and ignore it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I would help them and make sure they were okay!. Old people are frail and can easily break bones just by falling!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
