If you have to choose.. both of them is in danger to die, and if you have ONLY one person to save. Mum or wife? or dad or Husband? Which one would you save? Your mum/dad, Raised you since you were small Your wife/husband, the dad/mum of your kids

It is a very cruel question and probably I could only give a rational answer now. The person I most need with me now is my beloved husband who passes away 11 yars ago. I don´t know whether I would chose him, but is the person I miss more in my life.

Oh.. I am sorry for your lost. But it was just an innocent question that happen to be in my mind some times ago. I myself dont know the answer if i have to choose

As we age, we experience many losses and we have to live with them. But, apart from my own losses, it is a terrible question to ask yourself. Don´t do it. It will only hurt you either now or in the future by your own answer. In that sense it is not an innocent question at all. Think instead of wondering about the miracles of life you see everyday. Take care!

I would say spouse honestly. Typically, your spouse is going to be younger than your parent, and possibly even the mother or father of your children, unborn or otherwise. But I don't think there is a right or wrong answer to this one, because people have different relationships.

Of course there is no right or wrong.. but it seems that its a very easy choice for you to choose your spouse over your parents..

I don't think it's the kind of question that you could make a rational decision about. Especially when it's happening. If it were me, one of them would end up having to sacrifice themselves and take the need for a choice away. Because I'd most likely wind up panicking and unable to make any decision. If I did make a choice, it wouldn't come because of careful weighing of the choices or anything. It would again be a blind panic and blinding picking.

i think i would have to tell them to pick a folded piece of paper out of a hat. Who ever got a skull and cross bones has to die... that would be fair. It would be less stressful. * If i had a husband who was a a***hole, he could always die and I could collect insurance. :) yeah me !
