you save child, child ends up growing without a mother. through the younger years the child will probably get made fun of for not having a mother, and as he grows older, people will show pity for him. the child will probably grow up thinking to himself why is he different from others, yet he does not know that others like himself are among him. the father will probably make up a lie that his mother died in a car accident or something acceptable, and not tell him that she died while giving birth, for the child will take that way too seriously and become depressed. instead, the father will tell the truth to the child when hes older, thus crushing him mentally even more. he will probably go through the years hiding his feelings towards other people, not expressing the pain within him. his life will probably be different, knowing that he does not have a mother, and therefore be more independant.
id rather save my wife because i dont want my child to go through all the pain and suffering throughout his life.
