[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder if this depends on the age of the child. I love my toddler and baby immensely, but if they died, I would have another. I truly don't think anyone could replace DH and I don't think I could parent or go through life with young children without him. In our 60s I'm sure I will feel differently as women start to naturally lose husbands then. [/quote] Your child sounds replaceable to you.[/quote] Not replaceable. I love them both so much though that I know if I had a third I'd love that one just as much. I had a difficult labor and remember making DH promise to choose me instead of the baby if there was a question of that. [/quote] I think that most normal, non selfish people would chose the child over themselves in this situation. That's what I told my DH. If DH had to push either you or your child away from an oncoming train you'd want him to choose you? Nice. [/quote] +1 :shock: [/quote]
