GSP OR ENGLISH SETTER????????????

I am currently looking for a new dog to work as both hunting companion and family pet. I have narrowed my search to English Setters and SP's. I currently live in Georgia, and most of my hunting will be upland game birds, with the occasional trip south to shoot some ducks.
When I was younger I worked at a kennel that bred English Setters in Michigan, and am very familiar with the breed in the field. I owned a beautiful female from the Wire bloodline. A wonderful dog, but i never got to see her in a real home environment as I was single, and she stayed at the Kennel with her siblings. Since Then I have had the opportunity to hunt over a pair ofGSP'sand I fell in love with them in the field environment. Both are full of energy, and great hunters. I have several trusted friends back home that all swear by the setters, but everything I read, and get online seems to point toward the GSP.
How do these two dogs compare in the HOME environment, with children, and everything else. My kids are 5 and 1.
