In a situation like that, there is no right or wrong.

In that, there is no right or wrong

All because of a broken mailbox.

What a horrible story

I agree, there's no right or wrong. Poor guy.

Simply horrible.


I agree with everyone. He did what he could. That's all anyone can do.

Holy shit. How horrible.

I don't know what I would do,in the situation. I could say I would save
my son. But I don't know that horrible.

Read the story, the headline really isn't accurate.

He tried to save his son, but couldn't. The boy was trapped in the vehicle. The wife was at the surface, so he went to save her instead of saving neither of them.

I think it's awful to characterize it as "he chose his wife over his son." He was in a horrifying situation, tried to save both, and could only save one.

What was "wrong" in this situation was the parents' choice to take chase with their child and his friend in the car. Ridiculous.

the family dog made it though....
