Whose life would you save??

[Sagz]

I asked this question in another site and most parents agreed on one thing...saving their children. so here goes....

If you had to choose between saving your child or your grand child's life in DANGER from different directions and you only have 1 hour and one person to save, who would you save?

[ummmm]

Couldn't possibly say as I don't have grandchildren.

[welshlibranr]

sorry impossible to make that choice!..........love them both so much!.........

[wolf63]

If you saved the life of another adult they could then, hopefully, help you save the life of another person - or go for help.

Personally I would rescue my kitties first. ;-)

[Sagz]

Yes, I know it's really difficult b/c we want to save both but WHAT IF this happened to you?

If it did happen to me then I'd save my grandchild. I love my child so much but my grandchild is just starting a new life and I would still have a part of my child in my grandchild. Did I make any sense?

[welshlibranr]

yes, Sagz does make sense, but love them all so much, could never make the choice!......would rather die myself!........

[Sagz]

I'd probably do the same too. If I can't save both then I'd die WITH them.

[welshlibranr]

Certainly wouldn't want to live without them!.....

[Nousacy]

make a concrete analysis of a concrete problem, both love them,

[Kassee]

Thats an awful question - why on earth are you asking it?

[Maydup]

Why ask this ridiculous question? Sorry but its daft.

I am with kassee and maidup on this one. This is a very painful question for all with children and grandchildren. I suppose the answer would be a grandchild but would not really like to say.

That is like me asking my my father who he loves more; me or our cats! I would not dare ask this question as I know what the answer would be.

[Sagz]

Kassee & Maidup - This question is to prepare for the worst. I was asked this question by some random person and thought I'd share it to everyone because I know it would be really hard for me to choose and not only myself but for everyone else. It really is a painful question and I apologize for asking it.

Makes me think of that movie" Sophies choice" which child to save. Doesnt bear thinking about.

[emmie]

Brinjal, me too, Sophie's choice, and once you watch that film, you couldn't ever make that kind of decision. I would hope to save both, but if truthful, the child.
