Dogs replaced kids
- guitarbill 7y agoApparently, this is not so crazy as it seems. Especially in cities where real estate is expensive, people put off having kids for longer, and make do with pets in the meantime.
- rosege 7y agoOr people like me who 1. Prefer dogs to kids and 2. Believe there are enough people on this planet and did not want to add anymore.
- jjtheblunt 7y agoThere are lots of us that entirely rationally think the same thing, and actually live it.
- wolco 7y agoWhy aren't there more cat books
- Noos 7y agoDogs are kids without the sacrfice. A dog will never say he hates you, will not put you through nine months of pregnancy and labor to have, won't force you to give up your career pushing spreadsheets/work lots of overtime hours, won't force you to move for a bigger house or a better school system, and won't end up being a disappointment or worse. You can kennel them to go on your vacations and they will never ruin them by getting sick or sucking all of the fun out of it. They just sit there, look furry, show affection, and occasionally chew up your furniture, poop on the floor, and bark. Kind of a perfect sign of the times, I guess.
