I would beyond any doubt save my child! I know neither my husband or myself could live with ourselves if we ever lost one of our children that way! I would expect for him to do the same! We are both parents and responsible for their safety and we are both willing to give up our lives without thinking twice to save our children!
FYI: I would not jump after my husband after saving my child and leave him/her completely orphaned!

That is a really hard question i would save both. Grab them at the same time. But only one would be the child. The child looks like the spouse and will grow up to mimic him and he has a long life ahead of him.

My child no question my hubby and I have both agreed that our daughter is #1 in both our lifes and we are #2 in each others life and if either one of us were in that place it would be our child.

it is a hard question.... i might might desire to accept as true with your mom, with the adaptation of i might perish with them. i like the two my little ones the two so i could no longer merely save one and not the different. yet i might might desire to pass with them.
