I love our pets, but they are pets. They are not children.
Most of the people I know who think their pets are their children are homosexual. And I know some heterosexual couples who never wanted children though they act like their animals are their babies. It is kind of creepy.
My dog is my child, I’m not a homosexual, and if what I think of my dog bothers you, I want you to know that I do not give a damn.
My wife and I were never able to have children, and yes we treat our dogs like children, because frankly they treat us better than the children of friends of mine treat their parents.
I’m sorry to learn you have such a limited life.
