Ha, lets see: a Dog can raise a litter of 6 puppies every year with no effort, but to correctly raise 2 or 3 humans you need the time and income of at least two adults, for a lifetime. Which looks more difficult to you?
- Tichy 14y agoNot sure about that: have you had dogs raise 6 puppies in your house? If you argue like that, kids can be raised much cheaper, too. And there are even examples of kids being raised by wolves, I think? Hm, problem solved: get a dog and a kid, let the dog raise the kid?
- aortega 14y agoHave you raised a kid? lets try another example, you get fed up with the puppies barking all day, you could legally kill them all in the spot (horrible I know, but some people do that). Now compare that with raising a kid. If HE don't like the food and gets too thin, YOU may end in prison for kid neglecting. So you better cook nice food to your kids. Still think it's easier than a dog?
- Tichy 14y agoIf you don't like raising the kid, you could look into boarding school or adoption. Admittedly that's more expensive than killing a dog, but still. Also we were talking about maintaining a dog, not getting rid of it.
