What Would You Do If … Dilemmas In A Zombie Apocalypse: No. 5 – The Family Dilemma

You’re in your car waiting in a queue to drive onto a ferry. It’s just arrived but when the bow doors open you’re surprised to see a seething mass of people pour onto the quayside. It takes you a moment before you realise something’s wrong but by then they’ve started running towards you, attacking anyone they can catch. That’s when you realise the zombie apocalypse has begun. The zombie horde will be on you in seconds and your only chance is to get out and run. You look round to where your three children are sitting in the back seat. If you try to take them all with you, it’ll slow you down too much and you almost certainly get caught and if that happens you’ll all die. With two kids in tow, your chances of surviving are better but still only 50:50. If you only take one, you’re almost certain you’ll be able to move fast enough to get away. What do you do?
