Man Had To Choose: Save Wife Or Son by amebono1: 11:30pm On Nov 29, 2009 |
A man had to make the terrible choice of rescuing his wife or teenage son when their car plunged into a river at the weekend. http://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/a/-/world/6529945/dad-shoose-crash-wife-son/ |

Wow, this is a very serious issue i wouldnt want anyone to be in. But if this happens to me, i think i would go for my son bcuz i could always remarry (no offense to the ladies), then my memory of my late wife would still be wit me as long as i have my son around me. It may sound strange but guys what will y'all do. |

This is a very tough one, cos: The wife could always give me another son and without her, the son wouldn`t have been. The Son can always have a step mom, and the blood is always thicker than water. I will be honest, i cant take a pick. I am sitting on the fence on this one |

I'ld rather die than sacrifice any child of mine, or even any child at all. |

i would rather my child live, than me, i would give up my life for my child cuz he/she has got a life ahead to live and deserves a chance. |

The child should be saved. He is still young with a big future ahead of him.. |
Re: Man Had To Choose: Save Wife Or Son by Fhemmmy: 5:21am On Nov 30, 2009 |
Would there have been a child without the mother ^^^^ |
Re: Man Had To Choose: Save Wife Or Son by SeanT21(f): 5:32am On Nov 30, 2009 |
NO but he can always get a good step mother. |
Re: Man Had To Choose: Save Wife Or Son by Fhemmmy: 5:46am On Nov 30, 2009 |
And the wife can always have another great son or even 3plets of a son |

Its not fair to cut the little boy life short. Who knows what God has in store for him. |
Re: Man Had To Choose: Save Wife Or Son by Fhemmmy: 6:16am On Nov 30, 2009 |
SeanT21: One thing that life has thought us all . . .Life aint fair. Please dont get me wrong oh, i am not saying i would let my kid die, boy or a girl and that was why i said above that, i cant pick. But my take is that the life of the son is not worth more than the life of the mother, neither does the life of the mother over that of the son, life is life. SO ME NO FIT PICK OH |
Re: Man Had To Choose: Save Wife Or Son by SeanT21(f): 4:21pm On Nov 30, 2009 |
True. |
Re: Man Had To Choose: Save Wife Or Son by Fhemmmy: 6:04pm On Nov 30, 2009 |

Looking at the scenario, the question is unrealistic. There isn't a "the wife or son" element whatsoever. That would only come into play if both were in identical situations, which they weren't. The father had a choice, save who was easiest to save or drown saving the one more difficult to save. No one would want to be in that position. |
Re: Man Had To Choose: Save Wife Or Son by blackspade(m): 7:56pm On Nov 30, 2009 |
^ I agree. If the father had decided to go after the son instead of his wife and ended up loosing them both, it would have been an even bigger tragedy. As for the question, it would probably be the most difficult decision in my life god forbid. |

well said. |

@post whatever choice a person makes in this situation is RIGHT. one life saved is better than none. |
Re: Man Had To Choose: Save Wife Or Son by Akinagirl(f): 12:59am On Dec 01, 2009 |
Wow what a situation, but he did everyhting he could do. Even the rescuers couldn't get him. This is so sad. |
