[quote=Anonymous]If you can avoid getting a pet if you have kids or thinking about having to them. Contrary to what some people believe they are not good training tools to see how you'd do with a baby, and they don't teach young kids all that much because you end up doing most of the work, They are an extra expense and require devotion to health care and training and monitoring interactions. If you do get a pet I'd advise against it until the youngest child is between 8 and 10 years old, and then think carefully about the vibe of your household and get a pet that matches, ie don't get a dog that's bred to hunt , herd and run all day and expect her to lay happily on a rug by your heels.[/quote]
