    Quite frankly anyone who admits to choosing one over the other is an a-hole.

    If you can firmly say that you would rather save your children than your SO then you are saying you don't love your SO as much as your children. In which case you should split up.

    On the other hand, if you can firmly say that you would rather save your SO than your children then you are saying you don't love your children as much as your SO. In which case you should rather have just stayed childless.

    The only reasonable answer to this question is "I don't know". If you think I'm talking bs then tell your SO to his/her face that you would save your children first. I bet most of you don't have the guts to do that. And if you don't have the guts to tell your SO that then you probably don't trust him/her the way he or she may trust you.

    Ha ha?

    I'm hoping you're not serious

    Hell, if I can get out my SO can surely do it too... and he can help with the kids! We will each take one and help our third help herself (she is 17)... we are all saved!!

    I respectfully disagree....and I don't consider myself an a-hole.

    I think most women who have maternal instincts would go for their kids first.

    um, no. as a mother is is my duty to put my childs life before mine and as am his one and only mommy, his keeper. My SO, not so much... I love him to bits, but we both love our son more than we love eachother and are perfectly happy with that.

    my child.

    My husband and I have discussed it and we agree that we would BOTH save our son first. So, to the dude who posted that I'm an *kitten* for doing so and that I wouldn't have the guts to tell my spouse...WRONG.

    We are both 100% at peace with that decision.

    I was actually in that exact situation and I couldn't save everybody, this thread is just cruel for making me relive the horrible choice I had to make, it was between that little girl and Will Smith and who wouldn't choose Will Smith?

    You calculated the probability of survival and chose the logic person. Do not blame yourself for adhering to the logic.

    This is exactly why I don't have a husband...so I don't have to let him drown while I save the kids...
