"If you are asked to choose who to die first, will you choose your wife or you?"
What do you say to this? A man was asked this question “If you are asked to choose who to die first, will you choose your wife or you? “The man’s response was surprising. He said he will ask to die first. His explanation was that his wife will be in the best position to care for the children because she already oes so many things he is not able to do.
According to him, if he is left alone with the children, he will be forced to remarry which may expose his children to stepmother “drama”. However, he said on the other hand his wife would never remarry because most men do not want a mother with children as a wife.
Secondly, he said his wife would hesitate to expose his children to another father and would give her all to make sure the children do well. Wow! How many people can rationalize this issue this way?
The choice is between mom and dad, not the child. Who do we think is in the best position to take care of the kids when one parent is no more? This points to the fact that female children need to be empowered so they can successfully support the family in the event of a tragedy such as illness or death.

This is a difficult question to answer. One that has changed for modern civilisation throughout time. I say that because the obvious answer, and the one I would do would be to save my child, for 2 reasons. (Given that I love them both). My wife wouldn’t ever forgive me for choosing her. Our marriage would likely end anyway for that ‘betrayal’. It would be a difficult choice, but one that is already made. My child is innocent, and doesn’t deserve in the slightest to have such an end with so much life in front of them. At only 5 years old he couldn’t comprehend the choice of himself or mum. The feelings of dread would overcome him at the thought of losing his mother, but the thought of losing his own life isn’t fully understood.
