You can love one, lose another, and then love again. Same goes for a child, you can make quite a few in less than 5 years.

A mother is irreplaceable, I would go with mother.

Humans will try the impossible to save everyone. And simply asking these questions isn't psychology or some other thing. It is just a pointless question asking us who we love more. So I do not know who to choose, if I ever will come to this situation I would rather kill myself then make a choice.

this is how u solo threads...

@OP : why dont spend ur time making some usefull threads instead of old questions

Easy,my child.

If that child was mine and my lovers,she would understand. And if by any chance I saved by mother,she would throw me from the cliff,and then she would jump from the cliff anyway.

Tough choice of the heart, but it's pretty obvious. I would save my child. Letting an innocent child die is unthinkable. My mother would eventually die of old age, my lover might not even be my lover in a few years, but a growing child deserves to live. My mum would want that too.

My lover. While losing my child would hurt as much as losing my lover, the relationship you have with a child can be replicated and regained through having more than one child, while the relationship and bond with a lover isn't easily found, so I can afford to lose that less.

As for my mom, well, Jehovah provides.

My lover would probably demand I save the child, and preferably, she should be strong enough to pull herself up. It's either between my child or mother.
You only have one mother, but at the same time, she'd probably die of old age the soonest and I'd feel guilty for leaving the child.
On the other hand, I'd have a responsibility to save my offspring, but at the same time, I feel like I'd resent him for it and that'd be bad :/

Probably my child. I think that actually, the chances of my lover remaining my lover after I choose to let our child die is pretty slim. Maybe we can have another child, but would she doubt how strong my love is for that child when I just let our other child die? In fact, how would she then know for sure I don't value my life more than the both of them? My decision at that cliff will most likely make her question my priorities. The idea that a child's life is more valuable than the parents would certainly not be unique to her, it's drilled into most of our heads. I'd be betraying an indisputable concept to her (most likely - this really depends on our philosophy and relationship, but I'll just go with the "average" person).

Her friends and family may even help planting these ideas in her head, since I'm sure the decision would make them question me as well. She'll probably never feel secure with me alone with our next child again...

Don't forget this is midst the usual trauma that may ensue when a child is lost in a relationship and it appears to be somebody's fault.


Basically:

>It's pretty much guaranteed I'd have a child after I save him/her (he doesn't really get to choose to leave me lol)

>Chances are I won't even have a lover after I save her

And I'm sure I may be influenced by what the adults would want, I'd probably think "What would they want me to do?" It sounds unfortunate, but we don't embrace a child's opinions in such matters because we think the child is too young to know better (which may be the case in a lot of cases).

Now for the mother, the reasoning is probably even more simple, if I choose her I'd be losing my "second family" entirely. My wife and child would be gone... cruel it may sound, but prior to that event, I'd be spending most of my time with my wife and child and not my mother. They would have become a new part of my life, the future. There's many things my mother won't be able to relate to because of the generation gap, and parts of me and my life that I'll never be able to share with my mother. The bond between a mother and child is unique, sure, but so is a bond between father and child, husband and wife. The mother would probably feel horrible and always feel that she owes me something for taking away that part of my life. It'd be a terrible way to live the rest of her life (of course; my father may try and comfort her).

Either way, I'll be losing a part of my life. And again, it may sound distasteful, but the life I spent with my mother is deeply rooted in the past. All those good memories, fun times, a lot of the things that helps make her a mother occurred in the past. Think about that for a second. We may visit our mother only from time to time, particularly when we have a wife and child.

Mother isn't going to be chasing me around the house anymore (playing), pushing me on the swings, attending my school events, telling me bedtime stories; she's even going to be teaching me less about life. My future would be with my wife and child.

Also, what would my second potential partner think if I let my child and wife die to save my mother o_O? I'm sure she'll respect the love there, but again, she probably wouldn't feel secure and comfortable around me. So it may even prove very difficult to get another wife, assuming I'm honest with her from the start.

Of course, all of this wouldn't have gone through my head if this did happen.

No matter what I would try to save them all. Not a possible answer? Well too bad because it should be.

No doubt in that situation I would go for all of them some way.

It is a parents duty to always protect the child no matter what. The child becomes the center of their life and everything around it as soon as it is born (but not in an obsessive way of course).

So my child.

You can love one, lose another, and then love again. Same goes for a child, you can make quite a few in less than 5 years.

A mother is irreplaceable, I would go with mother.
I think you have problems bro

Thats a nice way to say it, But would you really think all of that at the moment ?

Edit:
You already added that xD

OT:
I don't think probably when i am in trouble so this may not be my reaction at all

Either my child or My mother (she cant be replaced )
