It was a huge natural disater which hit unespected and now you, your wife/husband and your child are on the roof of the house, surrounded by hot lava and you see and watch coming closer and closer a water wave about 300 feets high. It will be there in about 10-12 minutes and - despite all your efforts waving hands and also a bed sheet - rescue helicopters's crews seems to not notice you are there .. Now, finaly, one is approaching. You may have about 6-7 minutes and you think all is saved but .. the helicopter is FULL and - while looking worried to the tidal wave approaching - the rescue team tells to you the whorst-nightmare words: - ONLY ONE OF YOU AND THE KID !!! SORRY !!! There is you, your wife/husband and the child ... - C'MON, PEOPLE ! MAKE A CHOICE !!! The wave is at about 3 minutes away .. You hear and feel as the chooper's pilot increase the power in order to go ... with or without you .. MAKE THE CHOICE !

I have 3 children, no fair. But OK it's make believe. Him, me and one child. I know that he would insist that I go and I wouldn't argue with him, as incredibly selfish as that may sound...

Now I realize I may have not been specific enough, while trying to make it short the story and increase the chances to be readed ... Choper crew, people inside .. they all are asking YOU to TAKE A DECISION. IS your call. Your husband can't even hear what people from the helicopter told you ..

Marital problems ? And what is the connection ? How should I know about your personal problems ? Anyway, I'm sorry if I somehow offended you, was not my intention in no way ...

I would make sure my child got on that helicopter, and i would stay and die with my husband, because i could not live without him, and i know that my other family members would watch after my child

I would know that my child would have loving people with him/her. to care for her/him. and i could not leave my husband behind alone to die.

Do a small research. Ask this to people around (not family). Mostly will avoid to say "I will stay !"

Hey, don't missunderstand me .. I do not criticise you nor deny your choice .. yet lemme put the problem this way : You child will grow without both parents while now you can choose to have one ...
