Whom would you choose/save?

A character in a novel I am reading has just proclaimed, "Every woman prefers her child to her husband." I wonder if that's true. I suspect that's probably true of many, many women. But not all. I'm especially intrigued by women that go through life without having children. The ones that find children unnecessary. Women that never had an overwhelming desire to have children. No need to experience motherhood. I wonder if one can only truly love one other. In an unconditional way. What if one had to choose. All of your loved ones were being lined up. To be shot. And you could only save one. What a horrible decision to have to make. Whom would you choose/save? --Jim Broede
