This question got into my mind because lots of parents say that they can kill themselfs to save their children but i think that is all crappy talk. Of course some can do it, there are always exceptions but i dont believe the majority an do it. For a simple reason, self-preservation. Thanks for reading :)

That's one of the situations I think one'll never truly know the answer to until their put in the position of having to sacrifice either the children or themselves. I know I thought about what I would do while babysitting if something were to happen, but I think I might be too scared to actually act on what I'd planned in my thinking.

Yeah precisly you cant think when your in that position because your mind entered in self-preservation state. But your also right we can only know that after trying. Thanks for sharing your knowledge :)

Good Day! I think I can. A child has still so many years to live unlike me that's why I'm willing to do it and I would feel good doing this thing, to save someone. :)
