181. Either
they all stay together with the car - and his first concern in that case should be for keeping his children warm - pile on everything he's got, use his body warmth, etc...

Or they all walk together if that's really the only option.

No way in the world you leave two children to walk 10 miles in that weather. None.

If the car was stuck in snow, he gets out - maybe with help from the kids if they're dressed properly - and digs.

Now, first, he shouldn't even be in a vehicle in that weather - not without at least basic equipment like a shovel and a cell phone. If the kids are with him, that's double. And should include blankets - preferably thermal ones. And warmly dressed kids.

It sounds like he's either unbelievably stupid or unbelievably uncaring or some combination of the two.
