Question What to do?

These are sincere questions I'm asking and would prefer not to be blasted for asking them, so if you think I'm a non hunter for asking so be it,but please only answer it if you think they are reasonable ones. I saw two fawns moving toward my mineral and food spot where I have prepared a stand site. Their mother steped out a few minutes later and they went to feed. I'm strugling with wehther or not to shoot her if she comes through during the season with the two young ones in tow. My question is do you think they could survive without their mother being only 5 or so months old? Should I pass on a Doe with young fawns and wait for one without the fawns to care for? What have you done when faced with this choice,shoot or pass? The Doe was not more than 100 lbs as best I could tell. Your opinions and and expierence on this are welcome. Thanks
