This really is much ado about nothing. I see this as having very little impact on society.

There are some people, like Casey Anthony, who shouldn’t have children.

People who don’t want children should not be made to feel guilty for preferring the reduced commitment of owning a pet to parenting a child.

I absolutely agree; sometimes it is a better choice. I just can’t stand people equating the value of a dog’s life to that of a person.

I’m one of the one who will never have a kid. I just don’t like being around children. I’m quite happy with my little shelter mutt. Luckily, my family has the same view as you and doesn’t give me a hard time.
