[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While you did , fine, and didn't do anything wrong. I think you missed what she was actually saying. She was not seeking a conversation about life and death, she was expressing how much she loved your dog. So while, you said nothing wring a simple " We love doggy too, she's so funny/" would have sufficed.[/quote] +1. This is what I was thinking. Your explanation of death was fine and age appropriate but it didn’t need to be addressed just because she said “well have doggy forever!” I don’t lie to my kids either. But I also try not to jump in to explain in situations where they didn’t directly ask about a topic. [/quote]
