    The wife is a life guard and swim teacher.

    The kids have all been long-time swim team kids.

    I swim, but not often (no one wants to see my giant belly).

    They'd better all be trying to save me. :)

    Ha ha, fingers crossed for you then!

    Save SO first.

    Why? Well considering how I feel about children, I hate them to the point I was sterilized, I'm sure I would bear any child of mine a lot of resentment, so I feel I'd save my partner first.

    None the less, grim question. :o

    That's almost as depressing as the OP.

    oh well, different strokes for different folks

    Not really. I can definitely relate to where she's coming from.

    Given that we're talking plural children, I'd hope the SO pulled his or her *kitten* into gear and HELPED me save the babies in the backseat.
    Ditto

    We used to have this conversation, having 3 kids close in age (3 in car seats for awhile).. What would we do if a shooter entered a restaurant, who would rescue which kid in case of the car flipping into a river...

    All the ones on here getting mad and saying it isn't funny are all the usual trolls, they are probably pissed off they didn't think to post it, and if one of their friends posted it they would think it was hilarious. OP don't worry about them , they are a bunch of "you know whats"

    I think you need to look up the definition of internet troll.

    I answered the question, yes . . . do I think the question is hilarious? not on any planet in any dimension.
    oooooookkkkkkaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy
    Exactly, cuz the poster isn't one of your "friends"

    Hate and resentment are very strong feelings. That's what I meant.

    Yes, they are however you also don't know where she's coming from. I have often said I hate children or that I am deathly allergic to them. Hence the reason I will never have any. Would I resent my child if god forbid I got pregnant? Heck yes because it would be impeding on the lifestyle that I currently have and I have no desire to change it.

    You're in a car with your SO and kids, the driver loses control and ends up driving into a lake.

    Who would you save first?

    I'd save my kids , youngest first as he would have the least chance. Husband can take care of himself.

    My kids are 18 and 16 and in pretty good shape. They could probably save themselves. Therefore having to go with SO.

    Thankfully my oldest two can swim...I would unbuckle all three children (5years, 2.5 years, and 3 months) and push the older two out of the car. I would then unbuckle husband and get out with the baby. I would then go back for my husband.
