[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 528353, member: 3388"] TeDo, I think that the valuable life lessons kids learn from having pets, outweighs all of the bad things like puppy "accidents", etc... I agree with InsaneCdn that dogs need to be on schedules and with susie that it's a good idea to take yours to obedience classes. The bond that develops between kids and pets is amazing, nothing quite like it. I wish I had more pictures from the days when my kids were young, outside playing catch with my favorite sanity saver, cuddling up next to her, talking to her. easy child/difficult child 2 used to style her "hair" all different ways and have everyone laughing when we finally got to see the end result. All priceless memories... Of course, the not so great memories are there too, the times the kids refused to help care for her, the times I was afraid she would get hurt when one of them was raging, etc..., but still, I believe the unique bond they shared with her, the unconditional love she gave them, far outweighs the bad stuff. Congratulations on the new addition to your family!! SFR [/QUOTE]
