[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 617108, member: 1550"] This is about the pets. I'm kind of into pet rescue and we tell parents never to buy a child a pet. If a pet comes to live with you, it is your pet. Adults own pets, not kids. A pet is dependent on humans for care and kids are spacy, forgetful, and they get tired of the pets. in my opinion if the adults don't want the pet, and all the care it involves, it is best not to bring the pet home. The poor thing will probably end up in a shelter, maybe euthanized, all because a child wouldn't take responsibility for it. A pet can be great comfort for a child and some kids take a lot of responsibility for their pets, but a kid is a kid is a kid. And if the kid gets tired of the pet and doesn't want to care for it, the pet still needs you...the adult. [/QUOTE]
