technically you give me a child we both owe that child a debt to make sure that s/he has a bright future so no... but I can see how a child would fit sadly in today's standards.

I give you a child and owe you money for the next 18 years. I'd say it fits.

a trip to the hospital

p.s. riddles that have tons of correct answers but only one "right" answer are stupid.

Its not that your answer was bad it was too indirect... if you specified what you meant you would have got it

In a foul bet against a blood thirsty imp I wagered my head.
Much to my dismay I lost the bet. Yet I didn't lose my head.

What did I do to prevent the loss of my head?

Hint: I did not kill the imp and for those who will ask no the
imp didn't have a sudden change of heart, he was actually
very upset about not getting a chance at beheading me.

Nope, I did not cheat or back out or refuse to "payment"... that would only get me in worse trouble... No I am thankfully very smart or I would never have wagered my head to begin with...

Here's a bonus question to this same riddle: tell me who "I am" and tell me what happens next after I saved my head...

lmfao... clever as ever but no... if no one gets it I will give you credit for most clever answer :roll:

I only have one head that's all I need though most, I'm sure, would argue that's one head too many...

The imp also lost the bet b/c if you told the truth you would be beheaded, and if you lied you would beheaded, therefor you made a statement in which neither was possible.
