[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing is... if your kids really want the dog, you are going to break their hearts. And they will remember that forever. The in-laws are awful people, because you lose either way: you're going to have a dog in your house, or you're going to be the villain to your kids. I'm really sorry, OP. I assume this is part of a pattern from the in-laws. [/quote] I love puppies but out of those two choices, keeping the puppy will be the most difficult. You'll be back to sleepless baby nights for potty breaks and then horrible teething while in baby shark stage (which feels like forever) and training consistency which is stressful for everyone, especially kids in school. This has to be rooted in commitment, not surprise. The puppy is the one in for heartbreak when op realizes going along with it is chipping away at her sanitu.[/quote]
