WHO WOULD you save: your Mother or your Father?

Let's say both your parents ran into an accident. And both are at critical conditions and you only have to save one. And saving one means losing the other. Who would you save? Why?

Can't answer that question easily. Probably the one that is closest to be rescued. I think that would be a automatic reaction. The one who is closest at that time, would be the easiest to get out. Take care.

I do hate this discussion. Really. I hate having to choose between my mom and dad. I don't know, maybe I just have a thing for morbid discussions. Lol

That would be a hard decision to make. I would have to say my Mom if I couldn't save both. I love both parents very much and it would tear me up to have to only save one. My Mom is a very special person who has taught me everything I know today. She taught me to always look at the positive side of things. She is 87 and she still looks at things this way.

87? Wow. A lot of people don't reach that age anymore. You're blessed!

Hi there friend I would definitely save my mother. Being a man, I am sure that my father will tell me to do the same thing. He would tell me to save my mother first. He would sacrifice himself for his wife. That is love. Take care.

aww.... I love my parents so well and choosing one of them in this situation doesn't mean that my love for the one i did not choose is less... My father is very sensitive and fragile... At very little details, he often gets fired up and he's not afraid to break down even in front of us... I am also aware of how much he loves and cherishes my mom... that's why... I'd go to my mom... I'm sure he'll agree... it's really tough to choose between those you love...

This discussion is really too hard to respond.Both of them are important for me.I cant do the choice.When I begin to think about your question, I almost burst into tears. Lose either one of them is serious for me.
