Could you answer this?
Would you rather…
My family and I were having dinner at a local eatery. We tend to play quiet table games while waiting for our dinner. Games like I Spy and Would You Rather. We were mid-round of Would You Rather when Little Girl posed a question to me that I could not answer. It came out of the blue. She asked, “Would you rather not be a wife or not be a mother?” She was sitting next to my husband…both across from me. I looked at their faces and realized this was a question I could not answer. I could not image my life without either of them in it. Even on the hardest days, I would not trade my role as a wife or mother for anything! I told Little Girl she wins at the game because she found a question that I could not answer!
How would you respond?

It’s a easy question for me , since i am a guy 🙂
Great response. I too would never choose not to have either of those roles in my life.
Hello Tracy,
That’s definitely a question I cannot answer at all! Your daughter’s question is the hardest and she’s definitely the winner.
Best,
Sigrid
I wouldn’t be able to asnwer that either!

Clever one! I have to be honest and say my answer is wife. Neither option is thrilling but i have to be honest about the role I’d rather live without. I am divorced so that may invalidate my answer 😊
Ha ha. Very wise! Very wise.
Logical fallacy , damned if you do damned if you don’t . No good answer for that kind of a question
Really tricky question , little girl is growing up
