This is exactly it! Why don't people feel that they should sacrifice themselves and carry their grief and their emotional loss, and save the child? I agree with some others in this thread, those that would save their pet are selfish beyond my wildest imagination. To save themselves the grief of losing a subjective family member they sacrifice human life for what is to outside observers just an animal. Be as you want to be, but in this I feel justified in judging those people most harshly indeed.
