To all mothers and fathers and everyone else...?

Question

If you were put into a situation were they had your child and your spouse at gun point and told you that you had 1 minute to choose who lived...Who would you pick? And why?

Or

Fathers.. if your signifigant other was in labour and went unconcious and she was in a life or death situation..would you pick the child living or the mother?

Answer 1

Sad to say, but I would choose my daughter. Just because my daughter has much more life ahead of her and I don't wanna cut her life short because there is so much that she hasn't experienced. I know my daughter needs her dad, but if I had to choose who lived it would be my daughter.

Answer 2

I would choose my son. As mean as it sounds i cant replace him, but i can always fall in love again.

Answer 3

If I had to choose between the father of my children or my children I would always take my children that is one reason why i think my exhusband left because i would do what was best for our boys and not what he wanted me to do.

Answer 4

If I were held at gun point with my child I would want my spouse to choose my child to live. I don't have any children but I can imagine being in the situation so I would choose my child to live, as hard as that would be, because I believe my spouse would want that. I can't imagine being with someone who would want me to choose them to live over our own child.

Answer 5

I would pick my child and am positive my husband would make the same decision.

But I would make sure to get my child therapy so he could work through his survivor's guilt.

Answer 6

I would tell them to kill me.I I HAD to pick,I would pick my husband.As much as I love him,My child's live isn't any better or more important than my husbands.My husband was here first & will always be.But like I said,I wouldn't ever choose unless I just absolutely had to.My husband said it was a hard choice too,but he would choose me if put in a situation where he had to pick me or baby,he would also choose me..As much as we will always love our child and take care of his needs,etc our relationship will ALWAYS be one of our biggest priorities..

Answer 7

No doubt I would choose my baby!

Answer 8

Once again, the men get the short end of the stick.  heh.  Just remember that the next time we're asking you to cook us something for supper.  "What does daddy get for his hard work? The big piece of chicken at dinner! "

Answer 9

id pick my child, and ive told him that already and that he better pick my baby!

Answer 10

You know i am not going to answer this as i would hope that it never came but as much as it would hurt i would beg that they take me not my children or my spouse as i would not be able to choose between them to and i would hope and pray they would take me and not them and i know it don't sound right to not choose either but i love them to with all my heart and i would rather it be me then either of them

but this is not a good question to ask anyone now they are going to be alot of people thinking about this and i am upset as i had never thought of that and it is scary to think in this day and time it might happen

i would tell the people to take me or choose as i would not want murder on my hand for me telling to kill my husband

Answer 11

I would definitely choose my child. They are a gift and you are here to do your best to protect them from harm. And knowing my husband he wouldn't want it any other way. He would give his life for our children and so would I.
