You're on a boat one day when suddenly something goes horribly wrong. Before you could spell your name there has been a series of explsions and fires. The ship is taking on water faster than a toilet stop in rattlesnake country.

You try to rush to the lifeboats but are stopped by other passengers. It turns out a lot of the lifeboats have been destroyed in the fire/explosions and there aren't enough left for everyone. As such children are being prioitized.

You're about to argue when the ship vioently jerks, sending a crate of Seattle Seahawk merch sailing (no pun intended) right into you, crashing into your head.

The crate flies overboard and into the unforgiving sea, taking you with it. Your tormentor is also your savior however as you manage to hold onto it like a raft to stay afloat.

You pass out from the blow you took to the head and expect to shortly drown as the crate floats in water. Except it doesn't stay in water, after an unknown amount of time it floats into a desert island in the middle of no where. Plopping you harmlessly on the shore.

You're awoken by the sharp poke of a stick and look up to see a several kids staring at you.

"IT moved! It moved it moved it moved!" you hear a shrill voice yell.

There are more kids further down the shore, crying or running around.

"Where am I? What happened?" You groan as your rub the lump on your head.

"We were hoping you could tell us." a little girl called Susie pipes up.

"Looks like everyone else is deader than Ugandian Knuckles, Poggers!" A kid called Jeremy says as he dabs.

The island is quite small. It's unclear how long you're going to be stuck there. There's a few lifeboats but nothing that could cross an ocean. There is solar powered cool with Bacon, Beer, Soft drinks and some other foodstuffs designed for the passengers. And obviously your crate of now incredibly damp Seahawks merch.

But that's all you got. If anyone else survived the boat accident, there's no sign of them. Just endless ocean all around you.

You're cold, wet, lost, your head is hurting like hell and all of the kids are looking at you expectedly. You're the only grow up there.

How do you react?
What do you do?

Make that big help sign in the pic TC posted.

Then, try to find enough shelter to stay out of the hot sun and start rationing out whatever small amount of food & drinks.

Lastly, pray for a miracle.

listen to me. You follow my directions or youre gonna fend by yourselves in this island

Id direct the kids willing to listen to me so we have a team effort to survive and try to find help.

the little boogers need to stay on their side of the island when its chill out time, though, I have low tolerance for kids

revolved around self-preservation, considering that anxiety and an overactive imagination had me assuming strangers were dangerous and wanted to kill me.

Dont lifeboats have rations in them? Id inventory our supplies and look for fresh water or a way to make a desalinator. Then Id organIzr the kids to arrange the lifeboats into shelters. Lastly Id look for a way to make fire.

The next day wed figure out how to fish.

Not my kids, not my problem.

Also this scenario is whack. Women and children are prioritized (familial units more so) and no one fills a lifeboat with exclusively kids. If I made it on my own and witnessed such thoughtless dumbassery, I'd ditch the kids out of spite.
